Darla released their 1997 full-length An Albatross Guest House and Bright's 1998 contribution to the Bliss Out series, Blue Christian, while Ba Da Bing! released a self-titled 1996 album, Full Negative or Breaks in 2000,[2] and The Miller Fantasies in 2002, as well as a 2003 compilation called A Music Sampler.[3] Switching to the Strange Attractors label, they released the album Bells Break their Towers in 2005,[4] their latest album to date.
