attention of Roadrunner Records, who released the band's second album Sore (1994). The band was dropped by Roadrunner, and from then on have
gone through several periods of being split-up and reformed, with the only constant member having been Kirk Fisher. Dave Collins now heads sludge
band Weedeater.
In early 2010 Buzzoven announced plans to reunite with the ...At a Loss core line-up for a five date U.S. tour. The band has since parted ways but is
expected to reunite again in 2014, possibly with some other original members. Despite Fisher's ongoing problems with bipolar disorder and crack
addiction he remains hopeful about Buzzoven's future and his on-going solo career.
