Between 1991 and 1996, they entered the U.S. Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart five times, all of them hitting the top 10.[2] Two of the songs went to number one: "Mindflux" in 1992 and "The New Anthem" in 1996, which was a new version of their debut single "Anthem," itself a top five dance hit from 1991. In 2006 they returned to the top of the Official UK Dance Chart with a set of remixes of their biggest hit "Anthem".
