Gerechtigkeits Liga was formed in Germany in 1981 to create an outlet for the neurotic obsessions of it's members. The group produced and released their first Tapes & Videos and the 12" Vinyl Maxie Single ‘'The games must go on'’, on their own record label by the name of Zyklus production. In 1986/87 they moved their centre of operation to London. G.L’s first album was released on Side Effects Records, which was then owned and operated by Graeme Revell of the Industrial group SPK. Throughout the 1980's the group was self sufficient in producing Music, Films and Videos. Multimedia performances took place all over Europe and North America. At at the beginning of the 1990's G.L became partly inactive and didn’t release any new audio material, but towards the beginning of the Millenium, founder member Till Brüggemann felt the need to restart the project again.
Since then, newly recorded tracks have been released on various European compilation projects. In 2005 two of G.L's early Vinyl releases aswell as some previously unreleased Audio material, was made available again in form of a CD digipack. Further Audio, aswell as Video material was released as a limited edition on Vinyl and DVD by the infamous label Vinyl-on-Demand in 2008.
Gerechtigkeits Liga, now based in London and Berlin, consists of Till Brüggemann and Ragnar, who work together with different collaborators, who lend their support and skills to the various activities of the group.
A new album is being recorded at present and will be released sometime in 2009. Further information will be posted here in the near future.

"Society is no longer in any sense egalitarian. As the tenets of collectivism are rejected ' en masse ' , our perception of the evolutionary process becomes more and more confused, distorted and incomprehensible. Now the present situation has been reached whereby we are evolving without being aware of it. Is this because we don't care, or is it a conscious rejection of our unmistakable connections with primitive culture? By rejecting the old ' Barbarism ' society ushers in more surely a new and more definite era of the Dark Ages". Till Brüggemann
