This lineup included lead vocalist/bassist Todd Gullion, drummer Sander Leech, and guitarist Chris Lyon. In 2001, Ryan Downey joined the group as lead vocalist, and former lead vocalist/bassist Todd Gullion continued on bass and backing vocals. The band played one show with this line up; soon after Ryan left the band on good terms. 2002 saw the release of ''A Second Engine'', their first full length album, and their first release on Equal Vision Records. The band attracted attention for its openly political lyrical stances.〔(Time in Malta ), ''Thrasher Magazine'', December 2002. Accessed December 6, 2007.〕 Sander Leech having prior obligations could not go out to support the record so Eric Alexander joined playing drums. Todd Gullion asked good friend Jesse Hayes to step in and play bass so he could focus on vocals. This lineup toured heavily for a year and a half. Eric Alexander parted ways with the band and moved to Los Angeles to focus on session drumming. The winter of 2003 Sander Leech came back and split drum duties with Adam Goldstein to help write a new record. Adam joined Time In Malta in 2003. 2004 saw the release of ''Alone with the Alone'', Time In Malta’s final studio album, which was also released on Equal Vision.〔Review of ''Alone with the Alone''.
