The band continued to give concerts and participated in various music festivals.

In 1998-1999, the guys began to rap and alternate between rap and rock concerts. In the same 1999, the second album, "Death on the Rave", was released, which included such hits of the group as "Tortured the Bastards", as well as "I Spit", on which the video was shot.

In 2000, the third album "Capitalism 00" was released in rap style. On February 18, Kirpichi's drummer, Zhenya Nazarov, died. On March 30, a concert dedicated to his memory was held, where Tequilajazzz, IFK, "NOM", "Cradle", "Jan Ku" also performed.
