Two years later, the second EP called "Villain" was released, with which they gained their first wave of fame. In 2013, they released their first single, "Faded Memory", which can be found on their debut album Tear Me Down, which was released in the same year. In the same year, bassist Tom Mansfield left the group. Martin Shepherd rehearsed with Skarlett Riot for the first time before being officially appointed as the new bassist on 16 January 2014.

On 16 February 2015, the band released their third EP called We Are the Brave and supported Gus G. on his UK tour. [2]

In 2017, the single "Feel" was released, which can be found on the previously released EP, Sentience. Both a music video and a remix of Zardonic were released in a short time.

On 27 October 2017, Skarlett Riot released their second album Regenerate.
