Ben Calvert has also played with Killing Joke and more recently, Malpractice – which also contains Mark Chapman, (an ex-member of A) and Adam F. Ben Calvert is now the drummer for Calvin Harris. Guitarists Ant Forbes and Nick Goulding both Tour Manage bands. Bassist Keith Lambert played a brief stint with Martin Grech and now works in computers.
The band reunited in 2016, announcing that they would be playing shows and making new music. In July 2016, they announced on their Instagram that Dave Neale (ex-member of Rooster and Death In Vegas) would be joining as their new drummer.
