The seed of Xmal Deutschland originated in Hamburg, Germany, in 1980, where a five-girl line-up decided to defy the odds: Anja Huwe (vocals), Rita Simon (bass), Caro May (drums), M anuela Rickers (guitar), Fiona Sangster (keyboards). Soon after, Rita Simons was replaced by Wolfgang Ellerbrock, the first male presence in the group. A couple of independently released singles in 1981 (Grossstadtindianer) and 1982 (Incubus Succubus) introduced Xmal to the British underground scene, and most importantly to the 4AD label - Fetisch is their first album.
