In 2002, prior to the recording of their third studio album, Scallions underwent vocal cord surgery. He reportedly had to relearn how to sing entirely post-surgery, with Miller later alleging that Scallions was lip syncing while on tour to compensate. The album, Natural Selection was released in 2003. Its lead single, ” Falls On Me “, was the band’s final song to chart on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 52, as well as their final song to chart internationally. The album peaked at number 15 on the Billboard 200 and sold 71,000 copies in its first week. According to Brett Scallions, Natural Selection went gold shortly after its release, and possibly even went platinum by today. However, to this day, Natural Selection has not been certified gold by the RIAA.
