The duo released three albums, and their debut single, Captain Nemo, was later recorded by Sarah Brightman.

Linder went on to compose and produce experimental electronic music until he released his first solo album as a vocalist, Songs from the Silent Years in 2006. He was also the lead vocalist in the Swedish heavy metal band Enter the Hunt, who released the album, ''For Life. 'Til Death. To Hell. With Love,'' which was produced by Jacob Hellner.
