Sleavin and Killen went on to form Infernal Oak in 1995 with Geoffrey Sawicky.
In early 2008, a reformation of the old Divine Eve moniker and line-up was announced, consisting of Michael Sleaven, Xan Hammack, and Matt Killen, with Scott Cooksey eventually joining on bass. For the time being, Matt Killen will not perform live with the band, but is still an integral part of the songwriting/recording lineup.
