Tensions were high – Cope wanted to write ballads and quirky pop songs, while Balfe was more interested in recording synth-based dance music. Cope eventually dissolved the band in the middle of the sessions. The material was later released in 1990. Cope re-recorded "Metranil Vavin" and "Pussyface" for his solo album World Shut Your Mouth. After release in 1990, some journalists commented that the music, recorded in 1982, seemed to prefigure the acid house boom at the end of the 1980s, with quirky keyboards, sound effects and odd rhythm tracks.
