Lippok, Robert (drums, effects). Ronald Lippok has also gained praise for his work in Tarwater. The bands name is a palindrome as it can be spelled the same both forwards and backwards. The group's debut arrived in 1996 in the form of an untitled picture disc (subsequently reissued on CD by Kitty-Yo), with the more widely distributed „Veiculo“ (released by UK indie label City Slang) appearing the following year. In 2004 they moved to Domino Records. The band released The Amateur View in 1999 and Music Is a Hungry Ghost in 2001, Hotel Morgen in 2004 and ABC123 in 2007.
