Ken Jay left the band before recording for Shadow Zone. While he was reluctant to give details, it was heavily implied that Wayne's escalating drug abuse problem was a factor in it and he made it clear that nothing would've stopped him from leaving. He rejoined the band from ''Project: Regeneration'' onward.

Shout-Out "Black And White"'s videoclip featured the band turning into robots similar to skeletal T-800s. "Cold"'s whole videoclip is entirely based on I Am Legend. Unlike the protagonist, however, Wayne got turned into a vampire.

Original Generation: Project: Regeneration included songs that had no involvement from Wayne whatsoever, such as "Otsego Placebo" and "Accelerate".

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Koichi left the band after heavy touring in support of their debut album Wisconsin Death Trip, citing burnout. He did came back from Start a War onward, however. Ken Jay left the band before recording for Shadow Zone. While he was reluctant to give details, it was heavily implied that Wayne's escalating drug abuse problem was a factor in it and he made it clear that nothing would've stopped him from leaving. He rejoined the band from ''Project: Regeneration'' onward.
