[7] They also played support for Soundgarden, Faith no more, the Violent Femmes, Primus, Beastie Boys, Ice T and Body Count, Asian Dub Foundation, African Head Charge and more.
After they toured in support of "The Gospel of the DNA Demon" EP in late 1995, Johnnie Pain and Peter McLennan left the band, reportedly for 'spiritual reasons'.
Although they had limited commercial success – Rewind was "the only single that ever made a dent in the charts"[8] – the band retains a cult status in the New Zealand music scene among fans who recall their incendiary live shows.
The band reunited to play live shows in 2013, following the remaster/reissue of their back catalogue on the compilation Rewind The Hateman (2011) and Picasso Core Jukebox (2012),[9] featuring their collected cover versions.
