By this time, however, the band's members had drifted heavily into other projects (most notably singer/guitarist John Reis, who was simultaneously playing in Hot Snakes and Sultans and running his record label Swami Records) and were not as creatively dedicated to Rocket as they had been in the past.
Nesa época, porén, os membros do grupo estraban traballando intensamente noutros proxectos (sobre todo o vocalista e guitarrista John Reis, que estaba ao mesmo tempo tocando en Hot Snakes e Sultans e dirixindo o selo Swami Records), e non estaban tan involucrados creativamente en Rocket from the Crypt como no pasado.
