In 1997, the band released its first full-length album, "Flowing with the Flu", which also entered the German alternative charts. In 1998, the German Goth rock group Love Like Blood asked Weyzig to write a song for their "Snake Killer" album. This resulted in the track "Ylene", which became one of their favorites during Love Like Blood's live performances later that year.
