The band's second album Gump was released in 1991 on MCA Records in Canada and Chrysalis Records in the United States.[7] Chart campus radio charts, and spawned "You're No Good", the band's only single to chart in the RPM
After being dropped from their record labels, the band broke up in 1993.[8] [8] Tex .[9]
Later work [ edit ]
Binns, Short and Harrison subsequently joined with Lee Aaron in the band 2preciious ,[10] Dave "Rave" Ogilvie in the project Jakalope .[11]
In 2007, Newton launched a new project called Rat Silo .[12] Don Binns (bass), Finn Manniche (guitar), Dave "Oz" Osborne (keyboards) and Sean Stubbs (drums).[12]
