conventional "Sally-Sound" with the next studio recording. Nord Nord Ost was originally planned to be released in 2004 but was delayed until late 2005 due to the extensiveness of the production. Though the band have previously made use of musicians from outside the band, they now did so on a bigger scale, involving the Deutsches Filmorchester Babelsberg to create a wider and more orchestral sound. The album debuted at number 5 in the official charts, the highest chart placement the band has seen to date. In 2006, the group released the CD/DVD Nackt, which was a live recording of acoustic versions of some of their songs. On 19 October 2007, their album Bastard was released via Nuclear Blast Records. Bastard was recorded at Horus studio in Hanover, Germany, and Lundgaard studio in Denmark. Side projects Several of the band members have side or solo projects going. Wanting to "return to his roots" as a musician, Eric Fish started touring on his own in 1999. This project has now grown up to become a band in its own right. Three CDs have been released; Auge in Auge, Zwilling and Gegen den Strom. Fish is also involved in an online-only project called "Weiß" and often appears as a guest musician for other bands such as Letzte Instanz and Fiddler's Green. Bodenski has published a book of poems, called Inniglich, which draws heavily from his lyrics for Subway to Sally and also contains other works and non-published Sally songs. Along with his brother Chris and his sister Dodo Little, Simon also plays in the power metal band Silverlane which signed with Drakkar Entertainment in 2008. Frau Schmitt used to be a member of the somewhat "folky-jazzy" ensemble 17 Hippies.
