Rice left the band in 1998 to pursue his own career and released his debut solo album O to strong reviews in 2002. The single “The Blowers Daughter” went to the Top 10 in the UK, helping to push the album to triple platinum status, while in the US it won the Shortlist Music Prize and has since achieved gold sales. His follow-up album, 9, was released to mixed critical reception, but it still went on to achieve gold in the UK, and has sold well in the States.
