Earning a reputation as the hardest working and most successful independent band on the tour, offers started to come from every direction. They were offered full endorsements from Washburn guitars and a complete custom kit from Truth Drums, but, more importantly, they were offered more tours including their first tour overseas. As support for Bowling for Soup in the UK, NHOI received a response that they could only dream of. By their third show the word was already out and there were magazines and press that followed the band to see what all the hype was about. NHOI sold a little over 3,000 CD's in just 11 shows and were labeled as the next big thing to hit the UK. They were then offered a main support slot on a 23 date tour with Spunge in February of '04 and followed up with two headlining UK tours in October '04 and Feb '05.
When they got back home, they took roughly eleven days to record, edit, master, etc. their then upcoming new release, "11 Days," that dropped on March 9, 2004. It is now available in countries including the UK, Germany, and Japan.
After finishing a headlining world tour in the spring of '05, playing in Japan, England, Scotland, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, NHOI returned home to California to work on their new album.
Their self-titled CD was released in early 2007.
Also in 2007, the band went on an unannounced and sudden hiatus near the middle of the year. Though the band has not officially broken up, they have not been together since then.

This Is Goodbye
Never Heard of It Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've ever felt like this...
Yeah! This is my chance to get away.
Start with nothing that's fine.
Send a postcard and say goodbye, this is goodbye!
Can't you see
That it's over but just a new start for me,
Keep this with you,
Flip it over that's where I'll be...
I'm sorry...
Don't plan on coming back.
Leave behind everything.
For once do something right.
Yeah! No one believed half of what I'd say.
But it's different this time
Here's my post card to say goodbye...
This is goodbye...
Can't you see
That it's over but just a new start for me.
It's the best that I can do,
Keep this with you,
Flip it over that's where I'll be...
I'm sorry...
Can't you see
That it's over but just a new start for me,
Its the best that I can do,
Keep this with you,
Flip it over that's where I'll be...
I'm sorry...

The singer seems to be excited about the chance to get away and start with nothing. He intends to send a postcard to whoever he is leaving behind and say goodbye.

The chorus of the song features the line "Can't you see that it's over but just a new start for me." This line emphasizes the idea that the singer is not ending something, but rather starting something new. The singer seems to have made peace with their decision and has accepted that this is the best thing for them.
Overall, the song is about taking a leap of faith and starting something new. The singer may be leaving behind people or things they love, but the idea of starting anew is worth the price.
