They were joined by guitarist Dave Hunter and soon released their debut single, "Alive", on their own label Honey Records in 1993.^[3][4] The following year Hunter was replaced by Daron Robinson, and after only a handful of gigs, the band signed a major record deal with Go! Discs. Their debut album Drugstore was released on 27 March 1995 and it reached number 31 in the UK Albums Chart. T
