[3] The band did not attempt to create songs that resembled the ones from the former record, and assumed that choice would not be a complete fiasco, given their continued success.
"[3] Drummer Søren Friis elaborates: "One can actually take ourselves as an example, as we first had to win the Danish Rock Competition before it happened."
[3] EMI-Medley head of A&R and producer Nick Foss had made an agreement with lead singer and guitarist Tim Christensen that if their debut album Dizzy Mizz Lizzy sold gold (equal to 40,000 copies at that time), the next would be recorded at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London,[6][7] which it did in 2 months' time,[7] and would continue to sell 5× platinum.
[11] This period furthermore showed the first signs of the band members heading in different musical directions,[2] about which Christensen explained in 2000: "I needed change while the others wanted to continue in the same style, and that was actually the most important reason we split up.
In pursuit of the album's release, they played on festivals in Denmark, Norway and Germany, and went to Japan in September 1996 for shows in Tokyo (2×), Sapporo, Osaka, Nagoya and Fukuoka.
[10][13] They worked on some demos in January 1998,[14] but did not find the band dynamics revitalized,[11] and the trio decided to split up on 10 March 1998[7] while discussing their future in the Rosenborg Castle Gardens.
[14] Critics would later explain their decision as the band having the courage to stop in time despite enormous success,[15] although it was largely due to fatigue that the trio could not bring themselves to continuing to play.
[13] Reviews were generally positive; GAFFA described it as "a solid bastion of a publication,"[16] with which "Dizzy Mizz Lizzy really set new high standards for trio-rock – both in terms of musicality and finesse.
"[16] It was however considered a bit too polished, with "rapid tight rhythm shifts, pulsating beats, and tight guitar riffs [so that] one sometimes wonders why the band did not allow themselves a little more room for spontaneity, and just let go in the practice room and in their timing, because although the band has plenty of personality, it lacks an actual outbreak amidst all the rehearsed style exercises.
