 Aware later signed Mayer and released his full-length debut studio album, "Room for Squares", in June 2001.
 When Columbia Records acquired Aware, the album was re-released in September and promoted as a major label release.

 "Devil Thumbs a Ride", the 3rd album, had already been recorded and mastered and was about to be manufactured for another self-release when Universal stepped in to sign the band and release the album as-is.
 The Hunger had a hit song in 1996, "Vanishing Cream", from the "Devil Thumbs a Ride" CD, which received heavy airplay on rock stations and reached No. 4 on the Mainstream Rock charts.

 There was just no off button".
