Stereomud were a nu metal band split between New York City and Georgia, a five-piece with Erik Rogers singing, John Fattoruso and Joey Zampella on guitars, Corey Lowery on bass and Dan Richardson on drums. They got going in 1999, and Columbia Records put out their debut, Perfect Self, in 2001: grinding, two-guitar churn under anguished, hook-heavy vocals, the genre's pressure cooker set to full boil. The video for "Pain" got airplay on MTV2, and "Steppin Away" followed it onto rock radio.
They toured hard behind it, then went back in and made Every Given Moment, released in April 2003. That's where things came apart. After a run on the Jägermeister Music Tour alongside Hed PE, Breaking Benjamin, Systematic and Saliva, Columbia pulled their tour support and dropped them, and with a Life of Agony reunion also on the horizon, Stereomud split in July 2003, barely three months after the new record came out. A handful of reunion shows aside, that was the end of it.
