[edit] Other information

After touring in support of their debut album, Sonic Jihad, Torres and Slater had a falling out, resulting in Torres leaving the band. Martina Axen (formerly of Drain STH) was brought on to perform live when SRC played a tour opening for Queensrÿche. While she was set to be the new official vocalist (going so far as to record on demos for the new album), an announcement was made on May 4th, 2006 that Tobey and Jason had reconciled and were back recording together. This sudden and unexpected turn of events was well received by fans.

On September 4th, 2006, four months after returning to Snake River Conspiracy, Toby Torres posted on her myspace blog that she has "once again chosen to disassociate myself from Snake River Conspiracy". Two days later, SRC guitarist Mitch posted a message on the SRC forums that he had decided to leave the band as well. Jason Slater has remained quiet on the situation as well as the status of the matieral that was recorded during the brief reconciliation.

Jason Slater was previously a founding member of Third Eye Blind, a band he left because he felt they were "the modern equivalent of the Partridge Family."
