This lineup recorded a cassette, Psix Psong Demo.

Tim Potocic replaced Doug on drums in 1993. The band formed its own label, Sonic Unyon Records, to release its albums; their first album was The Sounds of Tristan Psionic. and developed the imprint into one of Canada's largest independent labels.

After Wool's departure, Heimlich Maneuver bassist Peter Kirkpatrick was enlisted to help write and record TPA Flight 028 and was replaced by April Sabucco shortly thereafter. Sabucco was in turn replaced by Rob Higgins on the band's final release, Mind the Gap.
