Marquez also departed from the band at this time, with Disgorged drummer Dave Culross taking over the position. With the lineup of Blachowicz, Rubin, Fasciana, and Culross, the band recorded and released their fourth album, Eternal . According to Fasciana, the label, Pavement Music, could not afford to let them record at Morrisound Recording , like their previous records. Fasciana stated that following the album, the drummer situation was “real weird”. Derek Roddy came into the band at this time, due to his friendship with Blachowicz. Fasciana, Blachowicz and Roddy were joined by guitarist John Paul Soars for the band’s fifth album, In Cold Blood , which premiered through Pavement Music in 1997. However, following the album’s release, Blachowicz and Roddy entered into an altercation, which resulted in both quitting the band and moving out of the apartment they shared.
