 The month-long experience had a rejuvenating effect on the band, partly because of the great locale and partly because of the work of producer Steven Haigler (The Pixies, Brand New, Clutch).Haigler played a pivotal role in developing the band's new sound, which steered away from its previous heavier style.In 2010, the band parted ways with Smallman and are now managed by SRO/Anthem (Rush, Thornley).
