New Album Gives Insight Into MUDVAYNE Tracks, Says Singer

November 26, 2007

The Pulse of Radio reports: MUDVAYNE releases a "fan-generated" collection of rarities, demos and live recordings called By "The People, For The People" on Tuesday (November 27). The record contains demo versions of some of MUDVAYNE's most popular songs, including "Death Blooms", "Fall Into Sleep", "Not Falling" and "Happy". Singer Chad Gray told The Pulse of Radio he thinks fans will enjoy hearing the tracks in their earliest stages. "From the demo standpoint, it's kind of cool because it's like, I think it allows the fan to adhere more to the band," he said. "It allows you to go deeper because they're hearing the songs on the records that are realized, where demos is just mapping. It's just getting down ideas, like broad strokes. So it kind of allows you to see where that song came from and kind of be a part of the life of what that song became."

Fans helped choose songs for the CD at Mudvayne.com, with the group deciding on the final selection.

The set also features a new song called "Dull Boy", which serves as the first single, a previously unreleased cover of THE POLICE's "King of Pain", plus live and acoustic versions of other MUDVAYNE favorites.

MUDVAYNE has posted some previously unseen band footage at its MySpace page in conjunction with the CD's arrival.

The group will enter the studio early next year to complete its fourth studio album, which is due out sometime in 2008.

Gray's other band, HELLYEAH, is currently on the road and recently issued a live DVD titled "Below The Belt".
