* OldShame: The reason the demos are not widely available. A couple of tracks from them have been released as bonus tracks, but the remainder are unlikely to see wide release.
** ''For My Wife'' especially, as Toby posted on his Facebook that it was "the worst thing he made in his life" after listening to it.



* ReclusiveArtist: Some of the band members have all but dropped off the face of the earth since it broke up. In particular, Jason Byron and Maria Stella-Fountoulakis seem to have retired from music, with Byron returning to write lyrics for the Music/KayoDot albums ''Hubardo'' and ''Blasphemy'' and perform a single guest spot on "The Black Stone".

* RealLifeWritesThePlot: Some of the lyrics in "Birth Pains of Astral Projection", particularly those concerning someone named Amelia, were apparently inspired by a time when the band broke into an old, supposedly haunted house and spent a while communicating via Ouija board with a spirit calling itself Amelia (as it turns out, the house in question actually had been owned by somebody by that name in the 1800's, though Toby Driver himself has some doubts about the story's authenticity).

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: For a long time, it was very difficult to find physical copies of the band's work. Blood Music's reissues have reduced this problem somewhat for now, but not by much, since even then copies are pretty high priced. Worse are the bottom mentioned box sets (especially the CD Box set) that were '''very''' limited printed (150 at best) and are rare to come across.

* CoversAlwaysLie: ''Bath'' and ''Leaving Your Body Map'' had their covers switched for [[MindScrew some reason]], with ''Bath'' having a drawing of a series of signposts on a hillside, and ''Leaving Your Body Map'' showing a drawing of a bathtub.

First, a vinyl box set of ''Bath'' and ''Leaving Your Body Map'' was co-released by Blood Music and the now-defunct Antithetic Records (which also included a bonus 7" of the rare track "Secret Song"). Secondly, Blood Music released a CD box set of all four of the band's albums.

* MagnumOpusDissonance: While ''My Fruit [=PsychoBells=]'' is generally fairly well liked, it's not usually considered the band's best work. However, Toby Driver considers it to have some of the band's best work on it.
