At the beginning of 2003, a new line-up was announced, with Ricci and Rik Charron returning along with new vocalist Rob Degroot and new bassist Paul Champagne. This line-up only lasted until March 2003 when Degroot left. His replacement was former vocalist Jacques Bélanger. In 2004, Paul Champagne was released from the band. The band recorded their ninth studio album, New Testament , with Ricci on both guitar and bass. New Testament is somewhat of a compilation album of re-recorded classics from throughout the band’s entire career. Later that year, bassist Rob “Clammy” Cohen joined the ranks. The year ended with the band heading out on a European tour with Swedish power metal band Steel Attack .
