Some tracks from a second album were finally released in 1992 on the record Dietro l'uragano. The first album had a second life with good sales later, and it is still selling today.

In the year 2009 Guido Wassermann and Pietro Pellegrini, two members of the original line up, decided it was the time to return to the scene, and reformed the band to record a new album, including both revised tunes from the second incomplete album as well as brand new tunes.

The original drummer Giorgio Santandrea also rejoined the band, and in November 2010 they officially had the reunion after over 30 years, playing at the Progvention 2010 in Milan. A live album from the reunion concert titles “Live In Bloom” was released in March 2012, but before the end of 2011 Giorgio Santandrea left the band, being replaced on drums by Alessandro “Pacho” Rossi. Their second studio album "AttosecondO" has been released in September 2012. In 2013 Fabio Rigamonti, bass player on both "Live In Bloom" and "AttosecondO", left the band and his role is taken by Marco Albanese; at the end of 2013 Pacho leaves the band as well, being replaced by Diego Mariani.
