After the success of the Anyway 12'', Oto, now a three-piece band, played a few gigs before entering the studio to record their debut (and final) album Purge an Urge. Produced by Vincent Hachet from French industrial duo Geinst Nait, Purge an Urge was supposed to contain nine tracks but the final release saw only six tracks. Cecile, from fellow Nancy band Candidate, even did some backing vocals. Released in 1986 on French label Divine, known for their releases of Mecano, Tuxedomoon, Fra Lippo Lippi and Minimal Compact, it was poorly promoted and was mainly sold in the Nancy area. But the music was as vibrant as their first effort and evokes bands like Second Layer, End Of Data, Das Kabinette, Grauzone and Martin Dupont. Pascal Hubert then formed and still performs in successful French alternative band Double Nelson. Now a much sought-after record, Purge an Urge is reissued for the very first time on vinyl.
