In May 2020 they were set to release their third EP, Chapter 3: The Last Selection^[5], but because of covid-19 pandemic release was postponed, however instead of an EP, the band released it as a full-length debut album^[6]. In 2022, they released their second album, Fear & Dagger, which was met with positive reception.^[7][8] In 2023, the band announced that they had renamed to 'Paleface Swiss' due to there being another artist named 'Paleface'; that same year, the band released several standalone singles, including "Best Before: Death", "Please End Me", and "The Gallow", among others.^[9][10][11] Vocalist Marc Zelli was featured on Left to Suffer's 2024 single titled "Lost in the Dark".^[12] The band's third studio album titled Cursed was released on January 3, 2025.^[13]
