Deteriorating relations with the band's management and record label combined with the deterioration of Eric Clayton's physical health left the band in limbo and the ''Legend III:II'' album in [[DevelopmentHell Development Hell]] for years. Recently Saviour Machine seems to be experiencing a resurgence starting with Eric Clayton's publication of his ''Collective Journals: 1997-2009''. In 2011 the core band members reunited for a series of acoustic performances with resumption of work on the long awaited ''Legend III:II'' expected to follow. Not long thereafter, however, the band's website and social media pages were taken down and all updates from Clayton ceased.
