In addition to headlining, Frigid Vinegar also supported Echobelly. It was then Lusty teamed with Brett Gordon to form Acarine. The first single "Blinder" sampled the theme from the 1970s television show "Minder" and was played by Zane Lowe and Chris Moyles. The next single "God Shoots Jesus Saves" sampled the 1980 movie "The Long Good Friday" and was released on limited edition numbered 7-inch vinyl only. Acarine were then signed to CNR, a subsidiary of RoadRunner records, where they released the singles "Screw Your Head On" and "Organ Donor", as well as the 14 track album "Call It On". The duo, along with live drummer Paul Kodish and Scratch DJ Matt Lewis, played the Glastonbury and Glade festival. They also toured with Chumbawamba and headlined shows in London at Koko, Dublin Castle, 93 Feet East, Bar Fly and Liberty. In addition, they supported the Cockney Rejects at the first Rejects' London show in 20 years. Gigs in London were attended by ex-football hooligan turned author Cass Pennant. A track on the album was written and recorded about Pennant, and they performed at his book launch for "Rolling with the 657 Crew" about Portsmouth F.C. hooligans. Ex-Stoke City hooligan Mark Chester followed suit and had Acarine perform at the launch for his book "Naughty Forty". Director Lexi Alexander then asked Acarine to provide a song for his film "Green Street" starring Elijah Wood which was about West Ham United hooligans. Acarine recorded the song "Stand Your Ground" for "Green Street". The band also appeared in the film as extras. Subsequently, a proposed gig in Southend was cancelled by the police and the local Council following concerns about violence from rival hooligans. In December 2004, Lusty met Morrissey and Polecats guitarist Boz Boorer backstage at an after show party at Morrissey's Earl Court show in London. Alex and Boz discussed recording together, and soon after The OneThree was born. Lusty wrote the lyrics and provided vocals, while Boz wrote the music and played guitar. Brett Gordon was again involved, this time playing bass, songwriting and handling the production as well as all chorus and backing vocals and contributing to arrangement. A 13 track album, "Life Goes On", was recorded and released on Revolver Records in August 2005.
