In 2009, and for the recording of their last and last album "Epilog", the Samoïlov brothers separate from their drummer Andrey Kotov, not enough present during the compositions and recordings in the studio. They replaced him with Dmitri "Snake" Khakimov (formerly Naïve) and recruited bassist-keyboardist Konstantin Bekrev (ex-Mir Ogna), who participated in the farewell tour of the group "Epilog tour". These last two founded the group "The Matrixx" with Valerii Arkadin.
