The band has also several releases on its conscience, with the last LP "Kollossus of Macedonia" in 2006. The members of the band - Egil Hegerberg, Aslag Guttormsgaard and Kristopher Schau - are no "young sheep" anymore, and they fear now that White Goods music is going to go in the grave with them.
