, who re-released the album on January 22, 2013. Beatroute said of the re-release, "the whole album is stuffed full of lush synth layers and endless saxophone riffs which have the album reeking of 1980s cheese in the best possible way," and noted the performer's "self-deprecating geeky style." Around the time of the re-release of ''Sugarglider'', Wilson reported he was working on a follow-up to his debut with the working title "Goddess Fear." In June 2014, he self-released a genre shifting mini-album entitled ''Punk Explosion'' on cassette. An extended LP version of this album entitled ''Punk Explosion/ Extension'' was released on the Mint Records label on July 10, 2015. He said at the time, "Aside from the years and the time it took to release it, ''Punk Explosion'' took almost no time compared to that ''Sugarglider'' record. I spent like no time mixing it, I spent no time mastering it, and that's probably why it sounds so terrible." In October 2022, his directorial debut was released, a music video for Faith Healer's "Another Fool".
