In March 2009, Mike Denneen said, "Atlantic was unwilling to let them become a 'real' band, which is what the guys wanted. Now they're calling the shots and having the opportunity to do what most bands do at the beginning: play and write songs and develop." The band spent the month playing in various local locations such as the Lizard Lounge in Boston. They represented a big change for the Lounge, which was used to hosting alternative rock and indie rock acts. Ben Romans stated that month that a self-financed new album would be coming soon. The band released two new songs, "I Quit! I Quit! I Quit!" and "Be in Love", available as free singles online. On August 6, 2010, they released their new single The Way It Goes with a record to follow the same year. On November 13, 2010, they announced on their Twitter that their third album, entitled TCV, will be released exclusively in Asia on November 16, 2010. Their album will be released in the UK through Lojinx and in the US on Q Dee Records, May 2011.

Their look was somewhat similar to modern-day contemporaries The Strokes as well. The band had a large audience of teenage girls. Guese remarked, "For a lot of these girls it is the first concert they have been to, or the first band they have been linked to". He also said, "Girls going crazy are better than some guy in a bar waiting to fight you outside after you're done playing". The Boston Globe referred to their image
