Other Albums they have released are From the Makers of Ozium (1997), Happy Happy Happy (2000), Joe Maynard's Favorites (2003). The latter is sort of a "best of" album and a version with bonus demos and such was also released. A few EPs have been released. Bubble Bowling (1997) and Besteborgere (soundtrack) (1999).

Although they have not broken up officially, the band's homepage states they have "no future plans".
