However, in early 2010, clean vocalist [[Deuce (singer)|Aron "Deuce" Erlichman]] was voted out of the group due to not arriving at the airport when the band was scheduled to leave for a tour, which left Erlichman and Hollywood Undead on poor terms. Erlichman then released a track, titled "Story of a Snitch", aimed at J-Dog and Johnny 3&nbsp;Tears. In late 2010, the band confirmed that former touring member Daniel "Danny" Murillo, who was an ''[[American Idol]]'' contestant in its [[American Idol (season 9)|ninth season]] and also the lead singer of the band [[Lorene Drive]], would take over as Erlichman's replacement, providing clean vocals.<ref name= "Review of 'American Tragedy' by Hollywood Undead">{{cite web|url=http://www.alternativeaddiction.com/newmusic/exec/albumreviews.asp?id=1092|publisher=Alternative Addiction|author=Ryan|title=Review of "American Tragedy" by Hollywood Undead|date=April 3, 2011|accessdate=July 23, 2011}}</ref> -George Ragan Finster (George Arthur Ragan) 0 Votes +Recording for the album began in summer 2010 and was originally set to release in fall of that year.
