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 ↴
Because we know you're special.
And we think you know you're wrong.
Bring me back the time.
Because we know you're special.
And we think you know you're wrong.
Suckerface you're special.
Do you believe yourself it's not science.
Do you believe yourself to be.
Number one in the world-electric.
Do you believe yourself it's not science.
Do you hide from your reflection.
Do you believe yourself to be.
Number one in the world-electric.
Raised by the queens your mother paid.
So how does that make you a human God.
And all the ladies want you.
And sometime gentlemen to.
And still we think you know you're wrong.
Suckerface you're special.
Do you believe yourself it's not science.
Do you hide from your reflection.
Do you believe yourself to be.
Number one in the world-electric.
Do you believe yourself it's not science.
Do you hide from your reflection.
Do you believe yourself to be.
Number one in the world-electric.
The lyrics of Suckerface by Orgy is an ironic take on self-centeredness and narcissism. The song seems to be addressed to someone who thinks too highly of themselves and is in need of a reality check. The line "Bring me back the time" suggests a desire to go back to a time when this person was not so arrogant and self-centered, while the repetition of "we know you're special" and "suckerface you're special" is a sarcastic way of saying that this person is no more special than anyone else.
The lyrics also touch on the idea of societal privilege, with the line "Raised by the queens your mother paid" suggesting that this person comes from a privileged background, perhaps having been pampered and showered with attention throughout their life. Despite this, the song belittles such a person, questioning their self-worth and suggesting that believing oneself to be "number one in the world-electric" is not something that can be supported by science or fact.
Overall, Suckerface is a tongue-in-cheek critique of self-centeredness and the societal factors that contribute to it.

Your sexual appeal doesn't make you a better person or more valuable than others.
And sometime gentlemen to.
Even men may find you attractive, but that doesn't earn you any additional respect or authority.
And still we think you know you're wrong.
Despite all your supposed greatness, we still believe you're mistaken and misguided.

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.
