On February 26, 2010, Thomas announced that the band were parting ways following their upcoming "The Marked Men of 2010" tour. Between 2010 and 2013, he formed Just Like Vinyl and joined Chiodos. Andrew Forsman also joined The Monday Mornings, and Frank Black joined Chineke.
The original lineup of The Fall of Troy reunited for three nights in December 2013 in Austin, Texas. Each night, the band performed one of its first three albums (The Fall of Troy, Doppelgänger and Manipulator) in its entirety. During the VIP reunion show, the band announced they would continue making music in 2014 by releasing a free album.
The new album, titled OK, was self-released on April 20th, 2016 (three weeks after its formal announcement) through the band's website for a pay what you want model, in addition to a vinyl release.
As a followup, on May 20th, 2016, the band released an alternate mix of OK simply titled OK #2, which bears more resemblance to their earlier material and production sound. "OK#2 represents a different version of us; the raw fury you hear at our shows and our earlier albums." The band later released instrumental versions of both mixes, entitled OK #3.1 and OK #3.2

I Just Got This Symphony Goin'
The Fall of Troy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With the temporary blood that your draw.
Keep in mind when I'm
Trying to hold this together,
Now you're gone and I'm wasting away.
And no, we can't deny it.
Look in my eyes it's you I confide in,
Words I choke back, we can't deny it.
Your eyes, eyes watching me like a camera.
Overexposure to these kind of days.
And the film, was surreal
As the dream was.
Shooting stars and galactic fates.
Wait another day,
For my mind to change,
Con your way out of this,
And make mistakes, I'll stand by this.
Wait another day,
Can't find the words to say,
I know I need to see you and feel you.
These days just aren't
The way they used to be.
Scream out my name!
Wait! we're whole again
You were my pride,
But where have you been!?
(Fullforce) fullforce (fullforce)!
Look up head!!
(Mayday) mayday (mayday)!
We're already dead
The Fall of Troy's I Just Got This Symphony Goin' is a song that tells about a character who feels alone and hopeless after losing someone significant in their life. The character tries to hold it together but their temporary coping mechanisms only make it worse. They miss the person they lost and cannot deny it. The line "Your eyes, eyes watching me like a camera" signifies the feeling of being watched and not being able to escape scrutiny. However, the dreams and memories they shared were surreal and cinematic, described as "shooting stars and galactic fates." The character waits another day, hoping to find the words to say to the person they lost and reconnect.
The song is rich in metaphors and imagery. The term "symphony" in the title refers to the character's life, and how they consider it a musical piece that they must keep going. The line "temporary blood that you draw" refers to drugs, while "overexposure to these kind of days" talks about how the character's life is like a camera continuously taking pictures, developing a feeling of being exposed all the time. The chorus contains the line "Fullforce, Mayday," symbolizing the character referring to reinforcements and emergency rescues, relating to the feeling of being alone in a dark place and crying for help.
