In 1999, the band released their most successful album, Ever Revolving, Never Evolving , on Nitro Records . The release was followed by numerous shows including a tour with The Vandals . Despite being at the height of their popularity, and with a looming tour with The Offspring planned for later that year, 30footFALL instead went on hiatus after the conclusion of their 1999 tour, citing the need to spend more time with family with personal issues back home in Houston. As a result, Chris LaForge left the band at this time to seek other musical ventures. Jason Davis (brother of drummer Brian Davis), and also formerly of Middlefinger , was brought on to play guitar when they resumed playing locally in the spring of 2000. This line-up recorded The Doppler Effect in 2002, intended to be their last album. At this time, 30footFALL chose not to tour for the new album. Instead, the band chose to play occasional Houston/Dallas/Austin shows and their annual 30footFALL Christmas show at Fitzgerald’s in Houston, TX. In 2003, with Chris LaForge back in the group, they released 10yearsandstillFALLING , a live album which documents their ten years as a band.
