********REBIRTH*********
MUDDSPYDER has taken a long hiatus spending time to reflect after being on the road for two years, and create a fresh new cd. Alot of bad things and good things have happened and the good news is we are here to stay. We lost Bluebeard and will soon reveal who the replacement will be! I assure you with Mick on drums, and Mike on vocals, the sound still has that Muddspyder feel, however, now that Tan Tan has completely taken the reins in the guitar spot and with this new bass player you will all be in for a interesting combination! Mick and Mike decided to step back and take a look in the middle of a storm with Johhny G coming and then going, Tanner and David filling the spot, half way through our 2nd tour David and Brandon decided to split. "It was a roller coaster ride from hell, but isn't it funny how everything works out for the best" The storm passed and we basically had kicked Muddspyder under the rug, buried it...... then *bam* all of a sudden people started to come out of the woodwork hinting towards cd, distribution, record deals, recording and touring with the some bigger name acts. Ya yayaya - we will see!! haha! So here it comes, soon we will release a new webpage, myspace, and a ton of info for you all to mass consume with updated versions of Sweet Mire, It's Not Me and Little Pill, plus a whole new list of originals. Thank you fans for your emails and faith you have never let us down. Onward, the Spyder Cometh!!!
The band is usually compared to a mix of Motley Crue, Metallica, Alice in Chains and Black Sabbath, but the difference in our music lies with the gathering of the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s music scenes and meshing these forces with a fresh twist in a stale Rock world – Allowing us to have ‘meat’ that people, fans and friends love. People want to identify with music, lyrics and a cause! The members of MUDDSPYDER know this because of the cd’s and merchandise we sell and sign at each show. The feedback is tremendous with the most common request from fans being “When are you coming back?” and “Why have we not heard you on the radio?” MUDDSPYDER is a professional, polished band that can play at the drop of a dime!!
Since then the band has been kicking at the national music scenes door, spinning a web around the hearts of Americans, Asians, Canadians, and Europeans with no intentions of stopping. MUDDSPYDER has climbed the charts online and have had many successful gigs, along with receiving radio play in several areas of the USA.
MEMBERS
------------
Powerful and tenacious describes the bands frontal assault to the peoples senses. The effortless vocals of Michael ranges from melodic to snarling in an instant. Energizing any listener by captivating them with thought provoking lyrics that spans any genre.
Mick Allen….’Dr Killdrums’ is the rock solid pulse of MUDDSPYDER, with drums you can feel in you heart. From at an early age Mick was electrified by the power of Rock N Roll. Tearing up the skins any chance he got and sculpting his chops in every roadhouse he came upon makes Mick Allen is a integral part of this band. Simply said – The Thunder in your soul!
The name MUDDSPYDER came from an afternoon party. As the day passed on, things became a little more interesting! So interesting, that one of the group’s close friend had reached a point of almost passing out. All of a sudden he was jumping up and shouting, “I got it!” As we all looked up in confusion, he accidentally spilled a little beer in between the crack of a park bench and in the dry dirt below a figure that looked like a spider bubbled up. It stuck! We pondered other names, but always came back to MUDDSPYDER!
The bands first gig was at the Los Carnales biker club on May 14th 2005. The band completed their freshman self titled debut album in four days and wrapped up its self-produced ‘CHAINS R BROKEN’ tour in August of ’06. MUDDSPYDER has risen from a regional act to a national act in six months time and still presses forward to the next level. The band enters the music scene with a fresh vision of rock. As the band sums it up, “We create music that we can play live instead of this new wave of music that can only be produced in a studio and we will not deviate from that.”
