Lo Fidelity Allstars began recording and sent a demo tape to Skint label-boss Damian Harris; after Harris saw them play live, he signed them. The groups first three singles for Skint were Kool Roc Bass, Disco Machine Gun and Vision Incision, all of which appeared during 1997 (just at the peak of big-beat frenzy in England thanks to recent releases by Fatboy Slim and Bentley Rhythm Ace). The Lo Fi debut album How to Operate with a Blown Mind followed in 1998. By the end of the year, Wrekked Train had left the band because of artistic differences; Albino Priest took his place as the bands nominal frontman. The mix album On the Floor at the Boutique followed in 2000, and Lo Fidelity Allstars delivered their second studio record, Dont Be Afraid of Love, in early 2002.
