In 2003 Bradley reformed the band Melt with Comes with the Fall bassist Adam Stanger and drummer Josh Howser; they were later joined by second guitarist Jason Saracco.[1] Melt released a five-track EP titled Color the Sky in 2005[1][2] before changing their name to The Young Royals in 2007.[1] Their debut album Day of Truths came out later that year.[1][3]
As of 2012, The Young Royals have undergone some lineup changes with Shane Soloski and Eric Leiderman respectively on bass and drums and released a new five-track EP called Prelude to A Good Heavy.

Bradley first appeared on their second album House by the Sea, on which he also plays bass guitar, released in 2007. They were later joined by Michael Dempsey, another founding member of The Cure, and released a third album in 2009 called Blue Star.
