Band Biographys/Statements Of 96, 98, 01, 02, & 03
1996 the beginnings
The roots that volume are exact in the US Federal State Illinois, more exactly said in Peoria, to the oldest city of the state, between Chicago and pc. Louis. There 1996 four young men are formed to volume with name "MuDvAyNe", around their conceptions from new Metal to zelebrieren and their rage rauszulassen in the year. There is Chad Gray (Vocals), Matthew McDonough (Drums), Greg tri bed (Guitar) and Shawn Barclay (bass). They add themselves a remarkably schillerndes Outfit. Made up, in skuriler clothes and with still skurileren hair-styles they enter Peorias stages. They produce together in self-direction its first Sampler "Kill, I Oughtta", which they sell on their concerts (usually in local clubs) independently. Disk companies become gradually attentive to the still young volume.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1998 the first contract
1998 push Ryan Martinie to volume and take over the bass part. The harmony under the four is great. The bass wins by Ryan at meaning in MuDvAyNes of musical window blind and coins/shapes their today typical sound. Also the music business recognizes the change in that volume. 1999 take Epic record MuDvAyNe under contract. Under the wings of their new employers MuDvAyNe take up its major debut "L.D.50". The plate appears 2000 and becomes an unexpected success. She receives gold for over 500.000 sold copies, the single "Dig" receives a MTV Award for the best Rock/Metal video. This success arranges to produce Epic with "Dig" their first single DVD. With unbelievable speed MuDvAyNe attain a respectable Bekanntheitsgrad in the USA and also in Europe.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
2001 route around the whole world
After "L.D.50" is hit like a bomb, MuDvAyNe go on route. First they plan the United States there, and routes by all cities and resounding. Success is overwhelming, so that they travel as Vorband of SlipKnoT also to Europe. Only a few months later they pull on own fist than Headliner by to country, and enjoy of ever larger popularity. Above all the appearances in England are memorable. The volume travels from place to place not to play tiredly always new Gigs and ever more fan live place themselves. During this time they are not however only on the stage. The "Dig" DVD is published, and short time later puts RH release of the Independent debut" Kill, I Oughtta to Epic "together with some Remixen after. The work carries the characteristic title for "The Beginning OF universe Things ton ends". During their route the four cut a concert in its hometown Peoria, which afterwards under the title "L(ive) D(osage)" as DVD are also published. Scarcely one and a half years lasts their Odyssey by the world, until they are finally again at home in Illinois, in order to process and enjoy the crazy events and the unbelievable feedback of the fans.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
2002 the second caper
The recovery break is only short. Only MuDvAyNe begin one month after completion of their route Marathons with the production of their next album. The volume sits down a close schedule, which pressurizes it powerfully. But it disburses itself. At the end of of 2002 appears to universe Things ton of Come "with" The ends to OF their third album. The volume tries to loose-will their monster Comic image and does not only put its make-up down, but proceeds also in music concentrate and more arranged. Text they proceed more deeply than ever too, and prove with its world-critical attitude farsightedness. The album gets world-wide very good criticisms, and also the fans take it enthusiastically on. "emergency Falling" is the first single uncoupling, which receives world-wide attention. Again MuDvAyNe "on the go visiting road" and the half world, in order to present their new work. They headlinen not only on their own route, but arise on Festivals and supports of volume such as Linkin ' park or Metallica.

2005 and Present...
They've sold more than two million units worldwide and racked up four RIAA Gold-certified releases. They've garnered extensive radio and video airplay and were honored with the first-ever MTV2 Award. They've played hundreds of sold-out shows around the world and have been featured in the pages of Rolling Stone, Revolver, Entertainment Weekly, Newsweek, Blender, Maxim, Spin, Guitar World, USA Today and a myriad of others. They were even written into a pivotal episode of HBO's smash mafia drama "The Sopranos." For most artists, such achievements usually mark the summation of an entire career?if they're lucky. Mudvayne, however, did all that in just three short years.
Their remarkable story continues with LOST AND FOUND, an electrifying, vividly-penned rock record from a band?vocalist Chad Gray, guitarist Greg Tribbett, bassist Ryan Martinie and drummer Matt McDonough - that's broadened its range without compromise. Produced by Dave Fortman (Evanescence, Superjoint Ritual), the highly anticipated album has the sonic heft of classic Mudvayne and is driven by the sledgehammer sound for which the band is known, but its heaviness has more to do with emotional content and delivery than amp settings.
"It's definitely the most personal album we've ever made," says Gray. "The songs deal with the test of the human spirit and the choices we make when faced with life's more difficult challenges. Ultimately, it's about consequences and being able to take a good long look in the mirror and feel good about who you are and the decisions that have shaped the person you've become."
Against a backdrop that mixes mood and melody to thrilling effect, Gray collects jagged memories and conversational flashes and channels them into songs of monolithic power. Backed by the pummeling rhythms of Martinie and McDonough, he comes out swinging on lead track "Determined," taking aim at those who'd seek to take what's rightfully his ("never wanted any more than what I deserve?**** an inch/I'm bringin' a mile"). In the song cycle that follows, he searches for simple truths by sifting through the wreckage of the past (lead single "Happy") and realizes he's given too much of himself away ("Forget To Remember"). He paints a picture of social erosion in "Fall Into Sleep," searches for life beyond the ordinary in "TV Radio" and mourns loss in "Rain. Sun. Gone." As a lyricist, Gray elevates the personal to the universal, speaking plainly and honestly while giving each track its own tense undercurrent.
Musically, the songs are unpredictable and alive, pulling in listeners with scalpel-sharp hooks and magnetic riffs. Tribbett's impassioned fretwork and crushing riffage add color and depth to Gray's vocals, creating melodies and arrangements that burst from the speakers with vitality and originality. "Chad's a phenomenal singer and we wanted to emphasize that by giving him freedom to breathe and try different things," says the guitarist. "That said, there are also plenty of ?trademark Mudvayne moments' on the record," he adds. "I did a lot of down-picking throughout the album, which gave the guitars a thicker, heavier, more aggressive sound."
That intensity comes across loud and clear on tracks like "Pushing Through" and "IMN," on which the road-tightened quartet take the album to speaker-shredding extremes. Then there's the disc's brilliant closer, "Choices," a blistering eight-minute opus filled with distorted textures, clench-fisted chords and glue-on-the-brain hooks.
"We've always taken pride in our ability to communicate to the different people that comprise our audience, be it the 13-year-old who's pissed at his parents and wants to wear makeup, or the adult who's very serious about music and art," says Martinie. "I'd like people to be able to find things in our music that are relevant to their lives and I think this album offers that."
Diehards will note that unlike past releases, LOST AND FOUND finds Mudvayne breaking from the gate sans makeup and pseudonyms. "We've never been defined by the makeup," says McDonough. "That's just one of the artistic tools that we've used to communicate ideas. We're not apologizing for it or even saying that we won't wear it again in the future. But right now, this is how we're expressing ourselves."
LOST AND FOUND follows 2002's The End of All Things To Come, a juggernaut that wowed fans and critics alike with hits such as "Not Falling" and "World So Cold." Mudvayne toured endlessly in support of the album, including a coveted spot on the high-profile Summer Sanitarium Tour, in which they tore up stages alongside Linkin Park, Deftones and headliners Metallica. They've raised the stakes with LOST AND FOUND, a skyscraping rock album delivered with unequaled musicianship, style and abandon.
"When you make your first record, you really don't know what you're doing," says McDonough. "As a result, you find yourself screaming at the top of your lungs just to make yourself heard. You rebound from that with your second album, because you're trying to live up to the expectations of its predecessor. With this record, we've definitely found our voice. We're standing here with arms folded, saying 'Now this is a Mudvayne album."
