On their sophomore album Eilzustellung-Expres, Carambolages ranks were bolstered by the arrival of Janett Lemmen, who had deputized for the pregnant Angie on a recent tour. Like its predecessor Carambolage (1980), the record was pro-duced in Fresenhagen by R.P.S. Lanrue and released on the Scherben label David Volksmund Produktion.Like a whirlwind girl gang on the road, the LP revs up with dynamic guitar riffs, indulging their turned on to the max sexual desires, before the mood shifts to the deeper realms of life on the Eilzustellung-Expres (express delivery): melancholy mu-sings on dismaying love affairs, a song about contradictory feelings experienced in childbirth, culminating in a declaration of love for Angies new daughter Lisa. The baby was always on board when Carambolage went on tour. The idea of her father Kai Sichtermann (Scherben bass player) taking her on tour would have been too much even for the left-leaning alternative Ton Steine Scherben. Making a mockery of male privilege, Carambolage delivered an album orbiting punk and pop in a classic line-up.
