1* BlackSheepHit: Even by being in their most rock-oriented album, "Popular" still sticks out in the band's discography by being a Music/{{Weezer}}-ish mid-tempo [[PostGrunge post-grunge]] song with sung spoken-word verses and a more darker and angsty tone compared to any other song from them.
2* ExecutiveMeddling: ''The Proximity Effect''. Their label at the time, Creator/ElektraRecords, felt that the album had no hit singles and wanted the band to put their cover of "Why Are You So Mean To Me?" by Vitreous Humor on the album and push it as their lead single, in which the band refused to do. They were dropped afterwards and eventually released the album independently in 2000.
3* OneHitWonder: The aforementioned "Popular" was their only hit, peaking at #11 in the Modern Rock Charts.
4* ShortRunInPeru: ''The Proximity Effect'' was able to avert the ExecutiveMeddling above in Europe, being released in September 1998. ''Let Go'' was also released in Europe five months before the United States, albeit with a different tracklist.
