- Creator Couple: Christian and Stella Vander were married for many years, though they are now divorced - apparently amicably, seeing that they continue to work together. Stella and her current husband, Francis Linon, are also an example - in fact, he recorded much of Zëss and also mixed it. (Meanwhile, Stella and Francis' son Marcus sang on, recorded part of, and mastered Zëss, while Stella and Christian's daughter Julie also sang on the album.)
- Keep Circulating the Tapes: A lot of their songs still have not been recorded in studio versions and have only been performed live. Naturally, this trope applies.
- Saved from Development Hell: Zëss is a particularly extreme example, having been first written in 1977, first performed live in 1979, but not recorded in a studio performance until 2019. It's not their first composition from the '70s to be recorded much later, either - in particular, Köhntarkösz Anteria was released in 2004 and Ëhmëhntëhtt-Ré in 2009, and both are largely based on compositions from the 1970s. Félicité Thösz is the band's only full-length album, in fact, that was primarily composed after the 1970s, but it was written in 2001 and released in 2012, so this trope still applies!
