In February 2002, keyboardist Andrew Everding joined the band. He had been relaxing at Rickly's apartment and was invited to a practice session with the band. The same month, the band toured across the United Kingdom with the Movielife. The music video for "Understanding in a Car Crash" was successful at MTV2, where it stayed in rotation for eight weeks. In March and April 2002, the band went on tour with Sparta. They were denied clearance at the Canada–US border, and as a result, had to cancel a show. Shortly afterwards, the band appeared at the Skate and Surf festival. They had planned to support Face to Face on their headlining US tour, but were replaced by the Movielife.
