As somebody who remembers shopping for L.D. 50 when it got here out all these years in the past, it’s wild to see Mudvayne again out on the highway and making headlines in 2023. However nostalgia’s in today, it appears, and with it comes all of the music many people grew up listening to.

Throughout a latest Revolver interview with Mudvayne vocalist Chad Grey and guitarist Greg Tribbett, the pair have been discussing the band’s legacy and its place throughout the nu-metal scene. And whereas some individuals won’t think about the make up carrying, brrrr-brrrrr-deng slinging band to be in the identical class as Korn and Limp Bizkit, Grey urged that they might in actual fact fall proper into that subgenre.

“I imply, I don’t suppose we are able to deny it. We got here up in the course of all that shit. We do have a stage of prog to us, and there have been undoubtedly some progressive components. However I believe that type of stopped with the band, as a result of what I dropped at it was extra… I felt like I had extra of that nu-metally vocal [delivery]. [Greg] was into it, too. We have been into nu-metal. Like, fucking Matt in all probability may give two shits, you recognize what I imply?

“Clearly, Greg and I are impressed by the Metallicas, the Slayers, the Panteras of the world. However we have been additionally very a lot impressed by Korn, like the primary album by Korn. Additionally Deftones and early Machine Head. Greg and I have been impressed by lots of music that got here to be often called nu-metal or no matter. And I really feel like that’s type of what I dropped at the desk, these inspirations or no matter.”

So there you could have it — straight from the supply. Mudvayne are a proggy nu-metal band. Fairly lower and dry, if you happen to ask me.
