=== Bell and Miller's return, ''Anomaly'', death of Jody Abbott and Corsale's departure (2020–present) === [[File:Fuel 2022.jpg|thumb|Carl Bell performing in 2022]] In 2020, founding member and primary songwriter Carl Bell decided to return to the band, forming a new version of the group. According to Bell, this was more or less a rebirth of Fuel and a new era for the band. Bell reunited with former drummer Kevin Miller to reform the group. Together they recruited a new singer, John Corsale, who at the time was the frontman for Miller's band Smashed. They began rehearsing in the summer of 2020 and later began working on what would become Fuel's 6th full-length album. During that time, the band also released ''Something Like Human'' on vinyl for the first time. ''Anomaly'' was released on October 22, 2021.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://loudwire.com/fuel-pair-reunite-new-singer-preview-anomaly-album/ |title=Hear Fuel Pair Reunite With New Singer, Preview Upcoming ''Anomaly'' Album |work=Loudwire |date=June 23, 2021 |access-date=September 17, 2021 |author=Childers, Chad}}</ref> Bell wrote and performed all instruments on ''Anomaly'' with Corsale performing vocals.{{#tag:ref|See ''Anomaly'' liner notes.|group="nb"}} Bell also produced and mixed the album.
