Their third album, "Whatever Forever and Ever", further expanded the band's sonic palette, and was released in May of 2009; it included a cover of John Lennon's "Jealous Guy".
In 2012, the song "Bettie Page", from the album "The Whole Shebang", was featured in the documentary "Bettie Page Reveals All", directed by Academy Award Nominee, Emmy Award winning producer & director, Mark Mori, and narrated by the legendary Bettie Page herself.
Paul Spencer's backing band, The Maxines, takes its name from the character portrayed by Catherine Keener, Maxine Lund, in Spike Jonze's 1999 cult classic, "Being John Malkovich".
