Poetic Punishment continued to record more music. Songs like "I Feel Dirty, "Smoking Up Hollywood" and "Turn Back The Hands Of Time" caught the ears of Flatbroke Records who signed the group in 1997. The compilation album "The Return of the West" (1997) featured two songs from The Poetic Punishment duo: "Done Deal" and "No Enemies".
