Dave Allen joined as bassist

Dave Allen joined the group as bassist following the recording of the album. The band then toured extensively throughout 2002 and 2003, playing all over the world, including festival tours such as Warped Tour , Ozzfest and Snocore . In October 2002, dates in Germany and the UK were cancelled when Palumbo was hospitalized in Paris after suffering a relapse of his Crohn’s disease; he subsequently underwent intestinal surgery. The dates were rescheduled to December, but Palumbo suffered another relapse. In April of 2003, he was hospitalized again in Glasgow, Scotland which led to further cancellations, including the Kerrang! Weekender and a date at the London Astoria.
