From an individual approach, the backgrounds of Mudvayne’s members are broad and extensive. Ryan Martinie, bassplayer, has won several state high school awards for classical vocals. He also has a long history with jazz bass, vocals and sword swallowing. Greg Tribbett, guitarist (The Big Ragu) has a strong background in the local music scene dating back to his teens. In the years of his youth, his engagement to the local Gestapo heightened his sense of awareness and personal preservation. Matthew McDonough, Drummer, a self-proclaimed super- genius spent many years in his youth performing with drum & bugle corps. His exquisite and twisted percussile orchestrations are influenced by too many twilight hours spent in front of a computer monitor. Chad Gray, masticator, found his youthful spare hours engaged in gargling gravel and 10w40. His year-round youthful glow is due to his many days spent serenading a furnace as a child. As a whole, the band is proud of the fact, that none of the members have any formal training with the instruments they play. Mudvayne’s debut album, L.D. 50 was released on Epic Records in 2000. They released Kill, I Oughtta, in 2001 with live tracks and remixes of their debut album. The band will release their new album The End Of All Things To Come on November 19.
