S.y.p.h. (album 4)
With their unpredictable live performances and songs such as 'Zurück zum Beton' and 'Industriemädchen', S.Y.P.H. caused a ruckus at the end of the 70s - as one of the bands that began to write lyrics in German around Düsseldorf's Ratinger Hof. Right from the start, the band broke with genre-conformist expectations and borrowed from rock, punk and kraut just as much as from Dadaism and the reality of everyday life. After the first album and several singles (re-issued on Tapete Records in December 2024), the band produced two more albums - Pst and S.Y.P.H. (album 4) - together with CAN's Holger Czukay. Tapete Records is now releasing both albums and a collection of previously unreleased rarities - Punkraut 1978-1981.
