"were Innes (vocals, strings, keyboards, programming), Cooper (keyboards) and Van Dammen (programming, aditional keyboards)" - these are not the members' real names.  At least two of the three continue to work together under different pseudonyms, the band's name has changed at least 4 times since 2001 and the members tend to also adopt new personal nominals in the process.  In one incarnation (about 2 name changes back in 2004-2005) members did in fact play under their real names.  They are known to be quite reclusive/private people and some caution needs to be taken to consult adequately with the appropriate parties before elaborating any further.  I can verify, however, that [[Slit]] (who also released an EP - info to follow) and [[The Slit Family]] are the same project, and have roots in other collaborations between the same members stemming back to 1998 - present.  --[[User:Te Irirangi|Te Irirangi]] 13:50, 7 October 2006 (BST)

-References circulating to members known as ''Van Dammen'' and ''Cooper'' are incorrect, no such persons were ever involved with the project.  Former members are aware, however, of a [[Tim Van Dammen]] who may have been the ''Van Dammen'' from another project known as [[Fade]] in 2001; and have clarified that there was a [[Greg Cooper]] whom Innes later collaborated with for a short-lived post-Slit project.--[[User:Te Irirangi|Te Irirangi]] 11:02, 8 October 2006 (BST)
