RCA, they released "Now You See Inside" in the summer 2000,
their debut album has cracked Billboard's Top 200 helped by the energetic

John Allen stepped in to fill his shoes for the remaining dates and entered
the studio for the group's second effort, "Tomorrow", it broke
into The Billboard 200 chart but has not achieved the same level of commercial
success as its predecessor, only the title-track ranked in the top 20
of The Modern Rock chart.
