Release
The songs "Paul" and "Zu spät" were released as singles, and did not achieve that much recognition from the public. However, a live version of "Zu spät" was released as a single from the live album '' Nach uns die Sintflut'' in 1989, which became a moderate hit in Germany landing at number 25 in GfK Entertainment charts. "Zu spät" was described as a revenge song.Legacy
In 1987, the Federal Department for Media Harmful to Young Persons put the songs "Claudia hat 'nen Schäferhund" and "Schlaflied" on the List of Media Harmful to Young People, with the effect that they could not be sold to minors, nor publicly advertised or displayed. This ban was lifted in 2004, which led to the subsequent reissue of the album ( see below).Track listing
