The band's fourth album, Strangers and Deranged Patients was released in November 2007 on the American Azra label.

The band split in September 2009 after performing their farewell gig at Camden Dingwalls supporting Drugstore, following an invitation to play from Isabel Monteiro.

Their final album, Hibernation songs, written amidst and largely about very personal tragedies for songwriter Jon Bennett, namely the dissolution of his marriage and the death of his father was released on Azra Records in July 2010.
