It signed to Fearless Records in the spring of that year, and released its fourth album, Speak in Code, containing the singles "Victoria" and "Curtain", in April 2012.

Eleventeen had secured a recording contract with RCA while the band's members were still in high school and being managed by Jake Knight.

"[6] The band issued the self-titled Eve 6 in 1998,[5] attaining platinum success with hit singles "Inside Out" and "Leech," the former capturing the No.

1 spot on the Modern Rock charts, spending several weeks on the top ten list on MTV's Total Request Live, and crossing over successfully to pop/Top 40 radio.

More widespread recognition came with gold-selling sophomore effort Horrorscope (2000), which spawned "Promise," "On the Roof Again," and the Top 40 hit "Here's to the Night."

The band made appearances on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Late Show with David Letterman, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, and TRL with Carson Daly, with their videos in constant rotation on MTV, most notably "Here's To The Night" which sat near the top of MTV's TRL countdown for much of the summer of 2001.

The band then released the more experimental It's All in Your Head in 2003, featuring top 10 Modern Rock hit "Think Twice," but parted ways with RCA thereafter.

Their rapid rise to prominence at an early age had led to mental and physical exhaustion, and in 2004 Eve 6 announced an indefinite hiatus.

"There were parts which were fucking incredible, and amazing and awesome, and there were aspects that were terrifying and freaky that you don't know how to handle.

On October 1, 2007, after performing for over a year as The Sugi Tap, it was leaked that a newly reunited Eve 6 including Collins, Fagenson, and new guitarist Matt Bair would be going on tour.

Collins and Fagenson played extensively as Eve 6 starting in 2008, with Bair temporarily replacing Siebels who was occupied with his project Monsters Are Waiting.

Fagenson continues, "The way [Siebels] hits the strings and puts that muscle into the chords is very distinctive to our band, and that was a welcome piece of the sound that we had missed.

The album contains a mix of compositions that began as far back as the side project, as well as recent works written in the months leading up to the recording process.

Don was crucial in helping us tighten everything up, and inspiring Max to dig really deep lyrically and get to some root emotion down there."

It contains the singles "Victoria" and "Curtain", the former receiving substantial airplay on the Modern Rock format in 2012[citation needed].

A cover and music video of Operation Ivy's "Sound System" featured a collaboration by Eve 6 and We Are The Union was premiered on October 7 at Riot Fest.

[17] On February 9, they announced the Extreme Wealth Tour with We Are the Union, Field Medic, and comedian Jake Flores.

[3] In December 2020, multiple media outlets took note of the fact that Max Collins had become a prolific poster to Eve 6's official Twitter account,[20] which was "quickly becoming a trove of internet comedy,"[21] including queries to various public figures asking if they "like the heart in a blender song,"[22][23][24][25] "choice tidbits ... about his fellow washed stars," and "generic observations about wallet chains, weight gain, and merch with palm trees on it, as well as a running bit about not knowing the difference between Vertical Horizon, Dishwalla, Matchbox 20, et al."[26] Loudwire crowned Collins the "new king of Twitter" and "the anti-Trapt of Twitter,"[27] the latter contrasting Collins' celebrated social media posts with those of Trapt lead singer Chris Taylor Brown.
