With their fourth album, ''Wide Awake Bored'', Treble Charger completed their transition to pop punk and scored hit singles "American Psycho" and "Brand New Low". This was followed by ''Detox'', which featured another hit "Hundred Million". The music video for this song featured some other musicians, such as Music/{{Gob}}, Music/{{AvrilLavigne}} and Music/{{Sum41}}. Nori was at that point largely involved with Sum 41 as their manager and producer. Priddle, dissatisfied with the band's pop punk direction, left the band in 2003. He was replaced by Devin Bronson. However, the band gradually ceased their activities and eventually broke up in 2006.

Their second album ''Self Title'' featured a bonus [=CD-ROM=] track promoting some of their favorite Canadian indie bands.
Palter left the band during the recording of their third album ''Maybe It's Me'', only appearing on four songs.

While ''Maybe It's Me'' was stylistically still rooted in indie rock, it had a more commercial sound and showed some hints at the band's subsequent switch to PopPunk.
