The last half of "Grand Theft Autumn/Where Is Your Boy" appears, but not the first half. There are a few others, but that's most of the exceptions. It's probably no coincidence that this looks like a list of their most popular songs.

The band was on hiatus, ([[InsistentTerminology not a breakup]], no matter what your friend tells you they've read on the internet that isn't direct WordOfGod.) During the hiatus, Patrick started a solo musical effort, Pete started a dancehall band turned EDM act called the Black Cards, and Joe and Andy have wrapped up work with rock supergroup The Damned Things (also featuring members of {{Anthrax}} and Every Time I Die). Andy did guest drumming with Enabler and Joe started a new band called With Knives (where he [[HiddenDepths does lead vocals]]).

** Fan consensus assumes that was due to his getting married to Ashlee Simpson, his chilling out as a result, and it generally not being acceptable for a newlywed to publicly bitch about exes anymore.
