Due to touring being a hardship on himself and his family, Nate had to leave, and Chris took up the slack and combined the dual guitar parts into one, and the band embarked on the [[Maximum Louisville]] 2004 tour.

'Sup whores...we're LORDS!
Lords was born to Louisville from the death of The Slow Suicide in late 2002/early 2003. After Jon Ashley left his vocalist position, Andy left to go back to The Glasspack, while Stanimal and Owens continued their passionate love affair by starting Lords, bringing in ex-Suidicer Stephen George and ex-Irnia member Billy Bisig to fill out the hall of kings. After several short tours and much buzz around town, Bisig and George left the band during the recording of the first EP. Stan and Chris continued the recording between themselves, and recruited Patrick Hume to fill the bass position, while Nathan Smallwood briefly joined to fill the empty guitar spot. His first show with the band was May 2nd, 2004 in Bloomington, IN, which was also the first show to feature their first EP - The House That Lords Built. Due to touring being a hardship on himself and his family, Nate had to leave, so Chris got some more amps and the band has remained a 3 piece ever since. Their first full length records "Swords" was recorded in January 2005 and slated to be released in March on Auxiliary, but Ryan Patterson lost his funding for the Auxiliary and the record remained in a state of limbo until Lords signed with Jade Tree in May 2005. http://www.lordsoflouisville.com/
