the fallout, they were frozen into inactivity due to a dispute with management over their final payout from ZTT but would eventually re-emerge in 2002 as the Psychodelicates with a download/mail order album Psychodelicates Go Adventuring. Viva meanwhile, despite continuing to demo material, never released any records and would later rename themselves Scala 5 and revert to a heavier guitar sound before their demise circa 2000. Personal differences between Xavior and his bandmates led to the demise of DexDexTer in early 1997 just as their single "Another Car Another CarCrash" was released with a follow-up "Chemistry of Youth" also ready for release. Both parties remained signed tor Trade2; the bandmates recorded a set of four demos for the label as "ExDexTer" but were swiftly dropped as eventually was Xavior in 1998 after he had recorded an unreleased solo album, Chainsaw Mass Appeal and appeared in the film Velvet Goldmine.

Tim Chipping would continue to use the Orlando band name for a planned folk-orientated second album under the working title Sick Folk (to have included a collaboration with Kenickie/Rosita members Marie Du Santiago and Emmy-Kate Montrose), before finally dissolving Orlando in Spring 2000. Minty, likewise, having released singles "Useless Man", "Plastic Bag" (a No. 2 hit in the Netherlands), "That's Nice" and "Nothing", released their parent album Open Wide in late
