They have released three albums:
Outside The Simian Flock (2001)
Paradisiac (2005)
Sciencing (2017)
Paradisiac was produced by Josh Homme (of Queens of the Stone Age) and fine-tuned at fellow QOTSA member Alain Johannes' studio. The album saw the band creating a harder-edged sound with obvious influences from the Queens.
Josh noticed Millionaire opening for the Masters of Reality in the SMAK (Ghent) and was so impressed he asked them to support his band on their European and American tours. Millionaire have since toured with Muse and Foo Fighters and in the U.S. with the Taste Of Chaos 2006 festival.
The band released two tracks for the Ex-Drummer soundtrack, Mongoloid (Devo cover) and Deep Fish. In this movie, they are played by the fictional band "The Feminists". Tim has recently released his own solo album. On December 5th, 2008, the band announced they are working on a new album.
No sense
Millionaire Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
On the inside
but the inside's inside out
All to blind
2 notice any signs
that's the state of our mind
Don't put out flame
Really think we don't
need worldpeace
what a waste of time
everytime that I try
2 comprehend sly
These lyrics from Millionaire's song No Sense speak about how our mind is in a state of confusion where we are unable to see the signs that are in front of us. The first line talks about how we are "on the inside" but "the inside's inside out", indicating that we are struggling to understand or express our own thoughts and emotions. The second line, "All too blind 2 notice any signs", elaborates on this idea by suggesting that we are so consumed by our own confusion that we are missing the external cues that could help us make sense of things.
The third line, "that's the state of our mind", summarizes the previous two lines by suggesting that this confusion is a pervasive and ongoing part of our mental state. The next two lines, "Don't put out the flame/ It's not 2 late yet," suggest that despite this confusion, there is still something worth preserving -- perhaps a spark of hope or motivation -- and that there is still time to make changes. The final lines, "Really think we don't/ need worldpeace/ what a waste of time/ everytime that I try/ 2 comprehend sly" provide a stark contrast to the earlier lines, suggesting that while the singer sees the value in preserving certain positive attributes or energies, they are deeply disillusioned by the idea of world peace.

On the inside
Internally, within ourselves
but the inside's inside out
Our inner self, emotions, and thoughts scattered and in disarray
All to blind
Unaware or ignorant to the truth
2 notice any signs
Unable to perceive any indications or warnings

This is the condition of our consciousness
Don't put out flame
Do not extinguish the passion
It's not 2 late yet
There is still time to make a change

What an unproductive and meaningless use of time

Every time I attempt
