In 2005 they released a live-DVD called ''Hotter! Wetter! Stickier! Funner!''. The same year they released their third studio-album entitled ''Sincerity Is an Easy Disguise in This Business'' on June 21. Shortly after, drummer Christopher Brown left the band and replaced by Kyle Mims. The next few years were spent touring non-stop, world wide.

In the fall of 2012, the band announced via their Facebook page that Josh James has left Evergreen Terrace to play full time with Stick To Your Guns, ex-bassist Jason Southwell has rejoined the band, and that they have split with Metal Blade Records. They recently signed a label deal with Rise Records. On October 22, 2013 the band announced over Facebook, that their sixth record, titled ''Dead Horses'', will be released under Rise Records on December 10, 2013. Brad Moxey was seriously injured on February 8, 2015 causing the band to cancel their upcoming tour. On June 1, 2015 Andrew Carey announced he had quit Evergreen Terrace after 15 years as their vocalist. It is yet to be determined if the existing members will continue on without him, although in a statement from Evergreen Terrace on facebook, they say they have been playing shows without Andrew for 'quite a while'. They cite Andrews focus on a career in nursing as the reason he hasn't been playing shows with the band but are unclear if his focus on his career is also the reason for him deciding to leave Evergreen Terrace. A statement from Andrew Carey says "I quit Evergreen Terrace. As Danny Glover would often say in the hit movies from the 90's, Lethal Weapon 1, 2, and 3, 'I'm getting too old for this shit.' Thanks to everyone who supported us throughout the years." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Evergreen Terrace」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
