Carter got huge in England and I think they felt that the success was a bit too much for them. I actually stayed with Fruitbat in London once at his flat in Brixton. They're really the nicest people you could ever meet. I think that in the end they were just 2 regular guys that wanted to make the kind of music they wanted. They played their very final reunion gig in November of last year. I wanted to go...they were one of my absolute favorite bands to see live. I saw them in 1993 and it was just fantastic. Still unlike anything I've seen. 2 guys with guitars and strobe lights shouldn't sound exciting on paper, but they had so much energy and were great performers.
