Bobby briefly joined Snake River Conspiracy for a while, and Jay formed his own independent record label, D1 Music, with his father. In 2004, Orgy's third album, "Punk Statik Paranoia," was released under D1, but with little to no radio play or recognition from the mainstream music media.
Ryan and Amir have also started a side project known as Julien-K, with a much more electronic focus, and have released a song featuring the vocals of Chester Bennington of Linkin Park on the recent Underworld Evolution soundtrack. They have since formed the project Dead By Sunrise with Bennington. Amir Derakh was immortalised in the Coal Chamber song Amir of the Desert. He produced their debut album. Jay Gordon appeared on the follow up "Chamber Music".
When asked for an Orgy update in late July 2008, Shuck informed fans that Orgy's return is still underway but their priority is getting the much delayed Julien-K album released. During a video interview at the annual Californian NAMM 2009 convention, Derakh mentioned a 2010 Orgy reunion.
On March 30, 2010, through a video to his Julien-K, Dead By Sunrise, and Orgy followers, Shuck informed that there are plans for a tour in 2010. On October 25, 2010, Ryan Shuck and Amir Derakh informed on the Julien-K blog that "As of Oct. 26th we will no longer be part of Orgy. Jay will continue making music without the original members. On October 30, 2010, Jay Gordon released a statement via his official Facebook profile stating that he still owns the Orgy name and wants to continue forth creating new material for the band. Jay wrote that all previous members of the band were too busy with numerous side-projects to continue with the original band.
On November 7, 2011, Blabbermouth.net published a news story detailing the bitter feud between vocalist Gordon and guitarists Shuck and Derakh that has spiraled out of control after Gordon revealing his plans to assemble a band of musicians and begin touring under the name Orgy.
On February 3, 2012, it was announced that Orgy would embark on a five-week run titled the Bad Blood Tour. The new lineup features members of Deadsy, Snot, and Run Run Run. Vocalist Jay Gordon is the only original member of Orgy appearing on this tour; the support acts are the Texas-based One-Eyed Doll Cleveland-based industrial metal band Ventana and Faultline from Richmond, Virginia. The band has reportedly been in the studio in recent weeks recording new material, including a collaboration with Skrillex. This was confirmed after they cancelled the last five shows of their tour.
On August 4, 2012, Orgy linked to a 30 second demo of a new song, "Grime of the Century" via their Twitter and Facebook page.
In 2013, Orgy embarked on the Wide Awake and Dead Tour with Vampires Everywhere! and Davey Suicide.

Orgy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Kick me when I'm down
Put me away again
Every now and then
Your bottle spinning my fate
As I hold my breath
And you say you don't want any part of this now
I guess I'm finally finding out
It's got me tripping now
The little things, everywhere I go
It's such a shame
Why you held on, so long
Why don't you confuse me a little more?
Confuse me
And I never thought that you
Who would believe that I wasn't good enough?
Those things I never thought you'd do
You got the best of me
You got the best of me, when you said you didn't love me anymore
And I know, this will be the last time
You've got me, running in circles like a freak
So why do you try, to kick me when I'm down
I'm down, all the way down
Put me away again
Every now and then
Your bottle spinning my fate
While I hold my breath
Don't sweat the lies that you say I control
Confuse me a little more
(Confuse me)
And I never thought that you
Who would believe that I wasn't good enough?
Those things I never thought you'd do
You got the best of me
You and all your secrets don't need me
You got the best of me, when you said you didn't love me anymore
And I know, this will be the last time
You've got me, running in circles like a freak
So why do you try to, kick me when I'm down
I'm down
So when you say you've let me go, let me go
'Cause you didn't care about this, sorry you
I guess you'll be all right
Now that you've got things to go your way
How could you be like this?
This it the last time but you don't hear me though
You got the best of me, when you said you didn't love me anymore
And I know, this will be the last time
You've got me, running in circles like a freak
So why do you try to, kick me when I'm down
I don't understand the way
That you're thinking, thinking, Andrea
Who could believe that I wasn't good enough?
Who could believe that I wasn't good enough?
Confuse me a little more
Who would believe that I wasn't good enough?
Who could believe that I wasn't good enough?
The song "Pure" by Orgy seems to be about a toxic relationship between two people. The lyrics suggest that one person is bringing the other down, kicking them when they are already down, and constantly confusing them. The person being spoken to is holding their breath and struggling to understand where things went wrong in the relationship. They are being deceived and manipulated by the other person, who claims not to want any part of the situation anymore. The song alludes to loneliness, loss, confusion, and helplessness as the person tries to grapple with their emotions and come to grips with the fact that the relationship is over.
The use of repetition in the song, particularly the phrase "You got the best of me," emphasizes the loss and betrayal that the person is feeling. The use of the word "pure" in the title is also interesting, and it could be interpreted in a few different ways. Perhaps it suggests that the emotions and feelings of the singer were once pure before they were corrupted by the toxic relationship. At the same time, the word "pure" could be sarcastic, as there is nothing pure or good about the relationship portrayed in the song.
Overall, "Pure" is a song that speaks to the complicated and multifaceted emotions that arise in relationships that are not healthy. It suggests that when someone is treated poorly, it can be hard to let go and move on, even when you know in your heart that it is the best thing to do.

Don't you bring me down
Do not make me feel worse about myself
Kick me when I'm down
Hurt me when I am vulnerable
Put me away again
Isolate me again
Every now and then
Occasionally
Your bottle spinning my fate
Your actions determining my fate
As I hold my breath
As I wait in anticipation
And you say you don't want any part of this now
And you claim to want no involvement in this situation
Where did it go so wrong
What went so terribly wrong
I guess I'm finally finding out
I am finally realizing what happened
It's got me tripping now
It is confusing me now
The little things, everywhere I go
Every small detail around me
It's such a shame
It is a regrettable situation
Why you held on, so long
Why did you stay for so long
Why don't you confuse me a little more?
Why don't you make things even more unclear
Confuse me
Make me uncertain
I never thought that you
I never expected you
Who would believe that I wasn't good enough?
Who wouldn't think I'm not worthy?
Those things I never thought you'd do
Those actions I never expected from you
You got the best of me
You were able to take advantage of me
And I know, this will be the last time
And I am aware, this is the final time
You've got me, running in circles like a freak
You have me spinning out of control
So why do you try, to kick me when I'm down
So why do you attempt to hurt me when I am at my lowest
I'm down, all the way down
I am extremely low
Don't sweat the lies that you say I control
Don't worry about the falsehoods that you claim I am responsible for
Confuse me a little more
Make me even more uncertain
You and all your secrets don't need me
You and all of your hidden information do not require my presence
So when you say you've let me go, let me go
Therefore, when you assert that you have abandoned me, truly do so
'Cause you didn't care about this, sorry you
Because you did not care about this, I feel sorry for you
I guess you'll be all right
I suppose you will survive
Now that you've got things to go your way
Now that things are going according to your plan
How could you be like this?
How could you act in such a way
I don't understand the way, that you're thinking, thinking, Andrea
I do not comprehend how you are processing things, Andrea
Who could believe that I wasn't good enough?
Who would think that I am not worthy enough?

The lyric is "painted face," as in "Your painted face left an impression on my pillow." The singer is telling the "Suicide Girl" that she wears a considerable amount of makeup and some has come off on the bedding.
