It was self-released in very limited numbers. With the addition of drummer Kevin Mahon, a second demo,Vivida Vis!(1998), was released in limited numbers by Misanthrope Records. The band started their first tour in March 1999, a month-long tour of the East coast, during which they met Jordan Kleeman in Baltimore, Maryland.[5]The band's first EP,Against Me!,was released twice through Crasshole Records (once in 1999 and 2000). Grace's longtime friendJames Bowmanjoined the band for a west coast in support of the EP, traveling in Grace's 1976Buick LeSabre,the engine of which exploded at the end of the tour.[5][6]Their first widely distributed release was the EPCrime as Forgiven by Against Me!(2001), released byPlan-It-X Recordsand Sabot Productions (run by longtime Against Me! tour manager Jordan Kleeman). While neither Bowman or Fridkin had part in the recording ofCrime as Forgiven by Against Me!,they both joined the band on tour to support it.[7]On April 23, 2001, while heading south on I-75, returning home from their first tour as a four-piece band, their van was struck by a semi truck. They landed upside-down in a ditch. No one was harmed, but the van and equipment were destroyed,[5][8][9]after which Bowman and Mahon left the band. The band broke up for a few months that year.[9][10][11]Athird EP,a self-titled acoustic recording by Grace and bassist Dustin Fridkin, was released in November 2001.

Grace later confirmed that Against Me! was still continuing as a band, with a "clean slate", and that an eighth Against Me! record was still planned for eventual release. However, she also noted that it could be either shelved or re-recorded, following Seward's replacement of Johansson as bassist.[54][65][66][67]

In February 2024, while promoting her second solo album,Hole in My Head,Grace confirmed that Against Me! was still on hiatus as a result of theCOVID-19 pandemic:"We never broke up, but the pandemic fucked us up. It killed our momentum. It made apparent that there was a point of burnout. So that’s where we’ve been – everyone stepped away. People started doing other things and it got weird. I’m one person in the equation, and because I’m still out here playing the songs and putting out records and doing interviews, I’m always put to task to answer for it all. All I’m ever trying to do is demonstrate that I still want to do it. I go out every night and I still feel attached to the music and I still love playing music. I can’t speak for the other people, I can only speak for myself."[84]

Grace, however, remained optimistic that the band would reunite in the future after "reconnecting" at her wedding: "I don’t want to jinx anything. We’ll just have to see. But we didn’t break up, it just got weird. We’ll play again, I have faith in that. I just don’t know when that’ll be. I’m really hopeful for this year that we’ll start playing music again."[84]
