Bonheiden, 1980 Zyklome A were founded and in the beginning the band consisted of four members but soon Mark (vocals & bass), Toon (guitars) and Robin (drums) remained and with this line-up the band has done one gig in Mechelen. Punk Etc. Records showed interest and a number was released on the "Second Time Around" compilation tape. After this, many performances were done in the surroundings of Antwerp/Turnhout. In 1983, a split EP with Moral Demolition was released by the same label with three goodies of Zyklome A. After the release of "Made In Belgium" in 1983 the band played a lot in the Netherlands with bands such as B.G.K., Lärm and Pandemonium. Because of the many gigs there was no time to make new songs. Partly because of the conscription (fleeing) from Puttemans, the band stopped performing. In 1988 and 2016 the band did some reunion gigs. Brilliant record!
