Below is a list of the 10 songs off their latest album Mooi Besoedeling, with some self-explained meaning behind each one. This is their third album, released in October 2009.
1. Frekwensie (weird, going into pop, going into pumping, lekker afskop)
2. Regter Vegter (wow, Zinkplaat rooking it!)
3. Sterkte (gaan in ‘n laer rat in, maar bly epic, soos ‘n Rolls Royce)
4. Nuwejaar (unexpected chilling so vroeg, maar stay with me)
5. Dag in die wingerd (oh wow, die album bereik ‘n tranedal so vroeg, maar ooooh so mooi)
6. Kleiner as berge (Bam! Skop jou tande uit jou vuil ding, nou begin ons eintlik met jou kop mors.)
7. Monopolis (Melodic, epic, lekker op nr. 7)
8. Ontsnappingsroete (Grooving, die kar trek nou al by 140km/h)
9. Moeilikheid (Pitstop met rollies, drie bokse Chatta, ‘n joint en miskien ‘n lekker vrytjie op die backseat. Veral as dit Basson se kar is, mmmmmmmbok…)
10. Mooi Besoedeling (Title track, som die hele storie op, einde aan ‘n Zinkplaat hoofstuk, en eindig met die woorde, “So mooi…”)
