On November 30, 2018 Confide played at The Glasshouse in Pomona, California for the 10th anniversary of Shout The Truth.
[7] Confide was originally started in August 2004 by Aaron Van Zutphen, Jason Pickard and Josh Plesh as a deathcore act.
After communicating with Helberg, Kenyon joined Confide and moved to his house where they started practicing.
This change in line-up made the band shift into a purist metalcore sound; dropping nearly all death metal influence.
In 2007, Kenyon was forced to move back to England and began performing in Penknifelovelife again, this time putting Confide on hiatus.
Confide's first full-length CD, titled Shout the Truth, was released on June 17, 2008 through Science Records.
Shout the Truth received mixed reviews; Altsounds called the album out on its unoriginality: "[T]he whole CD is very samey and they’re not producing anything different from what many other bands have already done and are just sticking to a now-dated sound.
Shortly after the album was released, Science Records was eliminated by its parent company, Warner Bros. Records and Confide was left without a label causing founding member Aaron Van Zutphen and drummer Arin Ilejay to leave in January 2009.
In April 2009, the band was signed to Tragic Hero Records, recruited former member, drummer Joel Piper who also took the role of clean vocalist, and guitarist Joshua Paul, and began performing all across the United States, on tours such as the "Don't Take Your Guns to Tour", alongside bands Once Nothing, Here I Come Falling, and In Fear and Faith.
[12] In January 2010, before the recording process of Confide's sophomore album started, founding bassist "Billy Pruden" left the band to pursue other endeavors.
Miss May I bassist Ryan Neff confirmed that Confide had broken up, but the post was later removed.
The band updated their official Facebook page with information about their tour in Japan on September 29.
Confide reunited for a one-time show at the Playground Festival in Hidden Valley, California on September 4, 2011.
The members of Confide have gone on to take part in many other bands and projects, most notably Avenged Sevenfold and Of Mice & Men.
Drummer Joel Piper started his own solo worship project after quitting Of Mice & Men.
