Biography
Shortly before the album's release in June the band announced they were to "stop touring and effectively end the group for the foreseeable future", with a live album and a b-sides and rarities collection to follow.
In December 2005 a new "unofficial" studio album - Club Sandwich at the Peveril Hotel - was released on the band's web site in January 16th 2006, with a limited number of copies making their way into stores in March. Although there was mention (and even scheduling) of a series of live gigs for early 2006, these shows were eventually cancelled due in part to Chris Davis leaving the band in March 2006.
In August 2006 the band made a surprise appearance playing at the Social in Nottingham with a new line up featuring past collaborators Tony Doggen Foster and Ady Fletcher with Ian Bissett newly recruited on the drums.
In September 2006 a collection of rarities, live tracks and demo recordings was made available via the bands' website.
On December 12th 2006 the band played another gig at the Social in Nottingham. Once again this featured the lineup of Chris Olley, James Flower, Doggen, Ady Fletcher and Ian Bissett.

Disbanding
Chris Olley continues to work on his Twelve project and new electro clash outfit fuck me USA www.chrisolley.co.uk and www.fuckmeusa.com Chris Davis also has a new band called Spotlight Kid. www.spotlightkid.info.

Side projects
In February 2007 it was officially announced via the band website that Six By Seven had reformed with their original lineup of Chris Olley, Sam Hempton, James Flower and Chris Davis. Pete Stevenson takes over Paul Douglas' role on bass.
July 2007 sees the internet release of a new album featuring the newly reformed lineup. It is entitled 'If Symptoms Persist, Kill Your Doctor' and is limited to 1000 copies only. Its lyrics are inspired by an episode of a BBC TV programme called The Trap. Gigs are to coincide with the release.
A best of (with songs chosen by fans on the official forum) is to be released later on in 2007 and will include remixes and a DVD containing the band's promo videos.
