In 2009 they contributed a cover of the Grizzly Bear song "Colorado" to the Warp20 (Recreated) compilation, as well as having their song "Fool In Rain" covered by Scott Herren's 'Diamond Watch Wrists'.

In 2010, the group decided to remove the vowels from their name Pivot after a legal claim was made from an American progressive metal band of the same name.About the name change, Richard Pike said “It was frustrating and kind of ridiculous, but it became quickly obvious that it was a legal battle in the US we may not even win, and one we just couldn’t afford to lose.

So in the end, we weren't fazed by it. Altering the name just seemed to be another step in the process for the record to come out and be heard… At the end of the day it’s small change, and we hope you’ll adjust to as quickly as we have.

”PVT's second international release, Church With No Magic, was released in August 2010. PVT worked with Ivan Vizintin, engineer and former Ghoul frontman, and Ben Hillier, mixer, to produce their third studio album, Homosapien.

The album was released on February 11th 2013
