The band remained this way up until 1999, when Casie Lewis took over drumming duty, This allowed Kyle to focus primarily on vocals.In 2001 Kris Lesak was recruited as the new drummer and Joel Diemer was also added as a second guitar.

The look of the group changed again in 2003 when the band added Jimmy James (guitar) and Eric Jablonski also replaced drummer Kris Lesak.
