In 1998 , several songs from ''Kaia'' were rerecorded and appeared on the debut album by her newest band, The Butchies .

The group recorded four albums before their break-up early 2005 , when they announced an indefinite "hiatus" on their website and thanked their fans. The Butchies reunited for a single show that November when all three group members happened to be back in Durham, North Carolina at the same time.
