What happened next?
Sneaker Pimps have been working on new material. A teaser indicated "Black Rain" is going to be a song from a fourth studio album. Kelli Ali's song "Rocking Horse" appeared on the soundtrack of the six-part Netflix series, 'Behind Her Eyes', based on the book of the same name, in 2021.
An interesting fact is that Noel Fielding joined the group as an occasional bassist before joining the Mighty Boosh and Never Mind the Buzzcocks and more recently the Great British Bake Off.
