Schwefel were commended by the press and lots of fanzines in the early 1980s and often described as the forthcoming stars of the independent scene. Since they did not reach any big commercial success, the band stopped releasing albums from 1992 to 1999. Then the career was continued by a compilation album and a number of new releases.
