The band was scheduled only to be a 'one-off' side project but has produced ten official studio albums and a number of live albums since, including the 2004 sophomore album The World That We Drive Through. For the recordings of this album, saxophonist Theo Travis joined The Tangent, who has previously worked with Porcupine Tree and is a former member of Soft Cell.
