They started touring intensively and recorded several tracks. Recognition finally came with the release of 2002's In Circolo, when the animated video of its second single, Agosto, became a favourite of MTV Italy. Their 2005 album Canzoni allo specchio broadened the band's fan base and garnered excellent reviews.
