and by Roy Zu-Arets, the music producer who produced the band's debut album Metziut Nifredet. Despite being a provocative name the band's members liked it and decided to use it. In Relation To Historical Events All of the band's albums came out in times of instability in Israel, which was reflected in the dark and heavy music and lyrics. Their debut album Metziut Nifredet came out just a few months before Yitzhak Rabin's assassination, in August of 1995, while the political discourse in Israel was heavily polarized regarding The Oslo Accords. The following self-titled album came out in 1998. The late 90's in Israel saw many major terror attacks and fear was rampant in day-to-day life. Their 3rd albun, Pahad Mavet, released in 2002, during the second Intifada (just after Operation Defensive Shield) when the Israeli Defence Forces faced many casualties in attempt to quell uprisings in the West Bank. The 4th album Forte came out in 2007, following The second Lebanon War and the next album Yoter Lo was released and even delayed due to Operation Protective Edge. Both of which had the army entering southern Lebanon and the Gaza Strip respectively in response to attacks and terror activities carried out from these regions.
