Mark Vanderbilt and co-founder Richard Warner departed in 1997 as the band was growing in stature because they were unable to tour. Casey Grillo was swiftly brought in, but finding a vocalist proved more difficult. Kamelot then picked Roy Khan, and to make Roy prove himself, he had to go skydiving with the band. David Pavlicko left soon after Siege Perilous. One of the band's new producers, Miro Rodenberg, filled in on a studio basis, while a succession of guests were used in the live environment until Oliver Palotai joined as a permanent member on The Black Halo tour. Glenn Barry stepped down from his role in the band in late 2009 due to family commitments. Since 2006, he had sat out most of the band's touring, with founding member Sean Tibbetts standing in. Tibbetts then rejoined the band permanently.
