The group first came to the attention of record label Double T when they were finalist at Humo’s Rock Rally, a prestigious Belgian rock contest, in 1996.
Their first album was 1998’s Little Things Of Venom (retitled as At The Close Of Every Day for release in the United States). In 1999, after this album’s success, they toured with Suede as well as opening for fellow popular Belgian band K’s Choice. The following year they opened for Counting Crows on that band’s European tour.

In 2002 the band released a second studio album, All Is Quiet Now, which was soon followed by a live album (Live in 2003).
