Since then, the band have continued to experiment with different influences while still keeping to their roots, releasing a further five albums from the late 2000s to 2010s. To showcase their death metal side a little more, Paul Kuhr and former guitarist Steve Nicholson reunited to form a side project called These Are They, and the former also has a progressive metal band called Subterranean Masquerade. He also provided the growls for the [=EP=] ''In Mournings Symphony'' by the group Em Sinfonia, a side project of Music/BrokenHope guitarist Brian Griffin.
In 2007, they published an autobiography entitled ''Novembers Doom: The Wayfaring Chronicles'', which also contained explanations for the lyrics of ''all'' of their songs up until that point.
