MUSHROOMHEAD: New Video Interview With WAYLON Posted Online

September 18, 2009

Full Metal Rock recently conducted an interview with MUSHROOMHEAD vocalist Waylon Reavis. Watch the chat below.

In a new interview with Noisecreep, MUSHROOMHEAD's St1tch (real name: Rick Thomas) stated about the band's longevity, "With us, it's always been about the fans. Without them, we wouldn't be sitting here right now. Most bands trickle out because they put out a record, they get a lot of hype, a label puts a bunch of money into 'em, they have a hit song, then the label moves on to the next band. And then, that band never really did a lot of touring and a lot of underground building of their fan base. They just got a bunch of quick radio fans, and that trickles off because it's flavor of the week, and then it's the next thing in line.

"But we were touring before a major label ... we're touring after a major label. We still have a good core underground following. We still are fortunate enough to have kept a good enough fan base to still stay current with bands that are hot right now, like KILLSWITCH ENGAGE and MARILYN MANSON, and all the bands that are still heavily touring. Our name has kept its quality, which is great and it's because we stayed true to ourselves. We never sold out and played the major label game. We do what we do."
