In 1995, after two years of inactivity, Henych revived the group in a new lineup, whose members were initially kept secret as the trio wore balaclavas while performing. The two new members were later revealed to be Roman “Izzi” Izaiáš on guitar and vocals, and Petr Vajda on drums. They released their next album, Morituri te salutant , in 1996, all the while performing in disguise, an image they presented even on the album cover. The musical sound of the new record was a major departure for Törr: leaving their former black metal sound behind, they switched to a more traditional hard rock sound, and this drove away many of their previous fans. In 1996, the band released their first concert album, simply titled Live . Composed of eleven tracks, the recording also includes one of Jiří Schelinger’s biggest hits, the song “Lupič Willy”, which had been recorded by the Zemětřesení project in 1993. The band continued to tour but didn’t make any new releases until 1999, when they issued the double disc Gallery , which included remastered versions of their four earliest albums.
