, all three available from Tesco Organisation
. The group is best known for its live performances where the group members use blow torches and wear terrorist-style masks and hoods to hide their identities.

. The group is controversial because of its use of war themes and violent imagery.
Taken from Remember 3xLP booklet.
"...Genocide Organ have provoked reaction from listeners - be those extremists who perceive the group have certain sympathies that align with their own, or vocal detractors labeling the group as racist, fascist, or more crudely - hate mongers. likewise for those listeners intelligent enough (or otherwise uninterested) in making such simplistic and polarized views of Genocide Organ, merely the extremity of sound can likewise provoke reactions from revulsion through to pure pleasure (the pleasures received in pain is an amply adage here)."
Genocide Organ in an interview :
"We never say what we think, and we never believe what we say, and if we tell the truth by accident, we hide it under so many lies that it is difficult to find out" (June 1999)
Leichenlinie and Leichenlinies were released on De Fabriek Records & Tapes.
