In 1997, they were signed to Drive Thru Records and released a more punk-influenced album called “The Sound And The Fury”. Shortly after that, the band broke up.|Brandon Chevalier-Kolling went on to play in the band Molotov Cocktail. He sadly passed away in 2004. Jeff Plate and Sam Crowell first founded a band called Teluride which died after a very short period of time and are now playing in NY-based rock band Low Flying Jets.|Just recently, their album “The Sound And The Fury” was re-released by Drive Thru Records and features all songs from the CD “Poop Du ‘Jour” as bonus tracks. A 2 disc set with demos and early unreleased tracks was put out DIY by the band in late 2006. |
