Career
As was usual for boy bands in the 1990s, the band initially embarked on a publicity blitz and tours of nightclubs.
Following their first UK hit single, "Don't Talk About Love", the band enjoyed international success with tours and promotion in Europe and Japan. After their Top 20 album Bad Boys Inc, and three Top 20 singles including the Top 10 hit "More to This World", the band went on to win international acclaim by being awarded Best International Newcomer in both Denmark and Finland in 1994. They were also the first band to appear on the UK National Lottery television programme before going their separate ways in the spring of 1995.
