Their music style is hard to define. It's a mix of absurd punk and electronical beats. "Ik sta scherp" and ""Schuld, mij treft geen ..." were their first two songs.
They first got noticed on a Belgian TV show in 1982 when they performed one of their songs called "De dag dat het zonlicht ...". Another Belgian singer, John Terra, had a song with the same name and although it wasn't a cover of his song Terra was offended by the lyrics. This fuzz gained the band notoriety among Belgian audiences.
A third member joined the band, Luc Van Acker, and together they produced their first EP named "jonge helden". The most famous song from this EP is "Lekker westers".
After a second album, Luc Van Acker was replaced by Willy-Willy (The Scabs) and Danny Klein (Vaya Con Dios). After an argument with their record label, the band split. Frontman Marcel Vanthilt became a VJ for MTV.
In 1991 the band got back together, got a deal from Virgin and released a new CD. Again, this album wasn't a great success and the band split up again.
The 3 members went on to write music and work for TV.

Arbeid Adelt! Lyrics
65 Weightless falls Honeysuckle Strangers, strange this Lights …
65+ Weightless falls Honeysuckle Strangers, strange this Lights …
De Dag Dat Het Zonlicht Niet Meer Scheen De dag. De dag. De dag dat het zonlicht niet…
De Man Die Alles Noteert Je kijkt niet naar me Ik moet je tikken geven Hij oogt…
Jhonniie Sexpistool meisje, wat ik in jou bewonder zit niet vanboven maar vanon…
Jonge Helden Het wordt tijd dat het oorlog wordt Jonge helden Ze willen …
Lekker Westers hoe heerlijk de weemoed het bier, het verdriet de stroom waa…
Nergens Heen meters, mijlen, lange wijlen dat ik zit, dat ik rij, dat…
Spannend overweeg dat je scheef kan gaan en over de schreef kan…
Succes ik tel de telefoons de stemmen, het succes het tellen word…
Te Pletter Te Tienen In Bost & Kumtich & Eliksem Is de lucht nog grauwer Dan…
