For the follow-up album, which the duo named "Post Historic Monsters", the band felt a change in approach was necessary. Although singer Jim Bob felt the negative comments at the time of the release of "The Impossible Dream" were "completely pointless," he nonetheless conceded that the duo's output up until that point was "really easy to parody." He felt that "parts of "1992" could have been made by Bobby Davro. It was up for that kind of a bashing." The duo felt it was not only critics but also fans who had grown tired of the duo, and their label who Bob felt lacked the "over-the-top enthusiasm" they bore when the duo signed with them. The duo had also grown tired of writing and playing music, and held off releasing any material for almost a year. Bob said: "We knew we had to come up with a good album or that would have been the end of it." Fruitbat of the duo said that, with "Post Historic Monsters", "we knew we had something to prove. We didn't want anybody to be allowed to dismiss us. No fucking way!"
