After competing in the National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences Grammy Showcase competition, where they advanced to the final round in [[New York City]], the group self-released their [[Saliva (album)|self-titled debut album]] which sold over 10,000 copies in their region, prompting [[Island Records]] to take notice. Their Island debut ''[[Every Six Seconds]]'' was released in 2001, followed by ''[[Back Into Your System]]'' in 2002, which included the chart topping hits "[[Always (Saliva song)|Always]]", and "Rest In Pieces" co-written by [[James Michael]] and [[Nikki Sixx]] of [[Mötley Crüe]]. The band toured in 2003, opening for [[Kiss (band)|Kiss]] and [[Aerosmith]]. On [[May 29]], [[2005]], guitarist Chris D'abaldo announced he had left the band "for obvious reasons, as the band is not a unit anymore." He then shortly retracted his statement and apologized, declaring on the band's website that "there was a bit of an issue we're working through and we're looking forward to recording a new album later this year". <ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1503377/20050602/story.jhtml|title=Saliva lose their guitarist|date=June 2 2005|accessdate=2008-01-30|publisher=MTV}}</ref> However, band's website currently apologizes yet again for the confusion and confirms that due to "creative differences", D'abaldo is in fact leaving the band, but that Saliva "is completely moving forward as planned and [has] our best music ahead of us". Shortly after the departure of D'abaldo, Jonathan Montoya replaced him in the lineup. D'abaldo eventually moved on to start the band Smolder. Saliva released the album ''[[Blood Stained Love Story]]'' on [[January 23]], [[2007]]. The single, titled "[[Ladies and Gentlemen]]" was released to radio stations and made it to #2 (according to Billboard.com) on the US Mainstream Rock charts. It has also been included as the background music for a number of [[Sony Computer Entertainment|Sony]]'s commercials for the [[PlayStation 3]], and can also be heard in on their [[MySpace]] profile. The track was used as the theme song for the WWE's [[Wrestlemania 23]] [[pay-per-view]]. The second single released off of the album was "Broken Sunday", which reached #8 on the mainstream rock chart, and is frequently on the [[Sirius]] top 20 on Octane. Saliva's tour manager Chris stated that the new single off ''Blood Stained Love Story'' would be "King of the Stereo". In an interview on Rockline Radio the band announced that they had written new material, and would heading back into the studio with Bob Marlette in the near future to begin on their fifth album which is to be called ''Monster''. The album is expected to be released fall 2008. In an interview with [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]] on the February 27, Scott said “We’re going to go in the studio probably around May and record our next record. It’s called ''Monster'', and if you like "Ladies and Gentlemen" and "[[Click Click Boom]]", and more dynamic stuff, it’s going to be an ass-whooping of a record. It’s going to be 45 minutes of ass-whooping!”<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.wwe.com/subscriptions/wwetunes/vol8/exclusives/salivaecw |title=Saliva talk about the new album |date=February 27, 2008|accessdate=2008-01-30 |publisher=WWE}}</ref> However, with the announcement of a new tour with [[Sevendust]], and a U.S. military tour to [[South Korea]] and [[Japan]], followed by a stint in [[Europe]], the band are not likely to hit the studio till July.
