During the fall of 2011, the band's website went live with a countdown to November 22, which was the eighth anniversary for the band's final show at the Fillmore in Denver.

Roper and Ortega Till began posting through several major social media outlets that an " awesome " announcement was coming on November 22, leading to increased speculation that the band would soon see its resurrection.

The speculation increased as the band began posting links to an Internet scavenger hunt for clues which led to a full contingent of reactivated, re-purposed and new websites for the band, its members and related projects.

On November 22, 2011, the band announced they were writing new material and working on a new record, and gave away a free song titled " It Was A Dark And Stormy Night " with the file name " Hope Still Flies ".

The new record was fully funded by fans within an hour of launching on Kickstarter.
