After a 7 inch single release ("A Satan / A Maszk") that hit the scene like a bomb, Pokolgep would become the first ever Heavy Metal band from Hungary to get permission from the government to release an album on Hungaroton. Although the state-run label fought tooth and nail against releasing a Heavy Metal album, they finally could not withstand the power of Pokolgep's constantly growing popularity. With the aid of Hungarian rock legend Fero Nagy, who helped the band recording the album and writing lyrics, Pokolgep unleashed "Totalis metal", ten heavy metal classics that proved to be an instant blockbuster.
