MUDVAYNE: New Video Interview Available
December 26, 2008Metal Til Death conducted an interview with bassist Ryan Martinie and drummer Matt McDonough of MUDVAYNE on December 11, 2008 at Rams Head Live! in Baltimore, Maryland. Watch the 10-minute chat below.
MUDVAYNE's fourth studio album, "The New Game", has sold 109,000 copies in the United States since its November 18 release, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The CD shifted 48,000 units in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 15 on The Billboard 200 chart.
"The New Game" follows an extended period in which MUDVAYNE recorded two full albums of new material, while singer Chad Gray and guitarist Greg Tribbett also went off to record and tour with the band HELLYEAH. But Gray told The Pulse of Radio that all the hard work paid off in MUDVAYNE's most mature album yet. "I really think that your music kind of comes from where you're at, you know, in life, and I think that, you know, every record we learn a little more about each other," he said. "It's not easier to write songs for us, but it is easier to write songs for us. We understand each other better. Where it used to take us a lot longer to kind of figure it out, we're a little quicker now to be able to kind of realize the direction that we're going in."
MUDVAYNE, NONPOINT and IN THIS MOMENT will team up for a U.S. tour in early 2009.
