The band broke up in 1999, after Sandman [[AuthorExistenceFailure suffered a fatal heart attack onstage in Italy]]. A fifth and final album following in 2000. Morphine called their music "low rock" due to the predominance of low-end sounds: Sandman's voice, his two-string slide bass, and Colley's baritone sax. Generally, their songs had no guitar.
