In Strict Confidence Biography
It took only two well-received demos for the industrial/grindcore combo In Strict Confidence to land on one of the genre's most respected labels, Germany's Zoth Ommog Records. Dennis Ostermann and Jörg Schelte formed the group in the early '90s, playing occasional live gigs and recording material for self-released cassettes. After Zoth Ommog signed the duo in 1996 the label released In Strict Confidence's debut LP Cryogenix. A distribution deal with Metropolis resulted in the mid-1997 American issue of the album. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
