They were notable for their utilisation of the mellotron, which was as important as the guitar in their music. Landberk's last live performance was in Oslo 1999. The band released three studio albums during the 1990s, Riktigt Äkta (1992), followed by One Man Tells Another (1994) and Indian Summer (1996). They also recorded a cover version of No More White Horses, a song by T2, an almost forgotten psychedelic rock band from the 1960s.
Members of the band were: Stefan Dimle (bass), Reine Fiske (guitars), Patric Helje (vocals), Jonas Lidholm (drums) and Simon Nordberg (mellotron/keyboard). Simon Nordberg also acted as the group's producer. On Landberk's first album Andreas Dahlbäck played drums.
In 2024, Indian Summer was re-released with a new sleeve design by the artist Camilla Flink.
