They were part of the group The Cassandra Complex. Then they formed MDMA (Mega Dance Metal Allegiance). After a couple of singles, Willis and Langley added Tim Garbutt and formed Utah Saints. Langley left after the first album. They hired musicians to play live. The Utah Saints signed with London Records and their debut single What Can You Do for Me reached #10 on the British Singles chart. The second single Something Good did even better. It reached #4 on the British Singles chart. The album was certified Silver in England. Something Good was very popular in dance clubs worldwide. The main sample of Kate Bush's Cloudbusting including her vocal. Something Good charted again when the Australian group Van She released a remix in 2008. It reached #8 on the British Singles chart.
