Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


Following this, in late 1998 the band released their much DarkerAndEdgier follow up ''Six'', a highly complex and often very dark album that moved away from the upbeat {{Britpop}}, GlamRock and AlternativeDance influences of their debut in favour of dialling the ProgressiveRock and Art Rock side of their sound UpTo11 and even bordering on outright Experimental Rock, along with plenty of EpicRocking. The album itself received critical acclaim and while not reaching the same commercial success as its predecessor, still debuted on the UK album charts at #6 and spawning three UK top 20 singles and one top 40 single.

Since the band split Draper has released a solo album, ''Spooky Action'', in 2017, and ''Attack Of The Grey Lantern'' and ''Six'' have been given LimitedSpecialCollectorsUltimateEdition releases in 2010 and 2018 for ''AOTGL'' and 2019 for ''Six''. For record store day in 2020, a 'lost' album recorded as a more commercial and accessible alternative to ''Six'' in case that album got rejected by the label for being too experimental was finally released, called ''The Dead Flowers Reject''.
