Generally known as Mangravy, each physical format had a different title.^[1][2][3] A second album followed in 1994 (Home Improvements, also released on vinyl as Whitey on the Moon and on cassette as Stocking the Lake With Brown Trout),^[3] and in 1996 Donhowe left, to be replaced by Josh Higgins.^[1] This line-up recorded their major label (MCA) debut Waikiki (1997) and Road Rage (1998), with a final album-length EP, I Know I'm Nobody released in 2000.

Donhowe died in March 2020.
