1999–2025years

Static-X came roaring out of Los Angeles in 1994, built by frontman and rhythm guitarist Wayne Static and drummer Ken Jay, with Tony Campos on bass and Koichi Fukuda on guitar and keyboards. Their 1999 debut, Wisconsin Death Trip, hit the nu metal boom like a drill press: chugging, relentlessly mechanical industrial riffs under Static's barked vocals. The album went platinum in the States, and "Push It" and "I'm With Stupid" made the band's case in a hurry.

Machine followed in 2001 with Tripp Eisen on guitar and "Cold" as its chilliest calling card, then Shadow Zone in 2003 with Nick Oshiro behind the kit, and Start a War in 2005, which brought Fukuda back into the fold. Cannibal and Cult of Static kept the conveyor belt running to the end of the decade, and by 2011 they'd moved more than three million albums worldwide.

Wayne Static put the band on ice to make his solo record Pighammer, revived the name in 2012 with his touring players, then broke it up in June 2013. He died in 2014 at 48. Four years later Campos, Fukuda and Jay regrouped in his honor, and the Project: Regeneration albums followed in 2020 and 2024.
