Mudvayne crawled out of the Peoria, Illinois, underground in 1996, and they looked as strange as they sounded: face and body paint, masks, matching uniforms. Chad Gray screamed and crooned, Greg Tribbett's guitar lurched and twisted, Ryan Martinie's bass popped and slithered, and Matthew McDonough drummed like he was solving an equation at top speed. Epic signed them, and L.D. 50, in 2000, broke through on the back of "Dig", a jackhammer of a single that turned every bar into a mosh pit, with "Death Blooms" behind it.
The End of All Things to Come, in 2002, kept the experimenting going with "Not Falling" and "World So Cold", and Lost and Found, in 2005, dialed down the weirdness a notch and turned up the hooks: "Happy?" is all snarl and stop-start crunch, while "Forget to Remember" leans into melody. The New Game, with "Do What You Do" and "Dull Boy", and a self-titled album carrying "Scream With Me" followed before the band pressed pause in 2010.
The four came back together in 2021 and have kept playing live ever since, and in 2025 they finally put out a new song, "Hurt People Hurt People".
