Aside from Almalbis, members over the years included Rommel de la Cruz who played bass throughout the band's existence; drummers Franklin Benitez and Wendell Garcia, who were part of the band before and after the release of ''Music from the Buffet Table'' respectively, and Kakoi Legaspi, who took up a second guitar position just prior to the band's dissolution in 2005.
