In mid-2004 they began recording new material and playing live across Europe, and in August the download-only single If You Don't Get What You Want was released. On September 12th, 2005 the new album Pocket Revolution was released. The release of the new album was supported by an extensive world tour of over 130 concerts. The final concert of the 2005/2006 Pocket Revolution tour took place on October 1st in the dEUS hometown of Antwerp, Belgium. dEUS performed that day as part of the 0110 Festival for Tolerance. This free entrance festival, an initiative of leadsinger Tom Barman, saw possibly the largest number of Belgian artists ever assembled perform that day in Antwerp, Ghent, Brussels and Charleroi in support of Tolerance and to oppose racism, extremism and pointless violence. After finishing their Pocket Revolution tour, the band began rehearsals for the writing and recording process of their next album.

In 2007 dEUS built their own studio, to continue work on the next album. The next dEUS album and world tour are expected for 2008.

His work on DEU and his generosity in making its source freely available helped spawn a plethora of authoring tools and editors.
