Mushroomhead is an eight person Alternative Metal band based in Cleveland, Ohio. Formed in 1993, the band’s music can be described as an eclectic blend of alternative, heavy metal, hip hop and industrial influences. The members of Mushroomhead characterize themselves by each adopting masks or facial disguises as well as individual pseudonyms. Mushroomhead is easily identified by its distinct “X Face” logo – commonly worn boldly on the masks of most members, as well as clothing and associated merchandise.
As of January 2006, Mushroomhead is in the studio recording its follow up to 2003’s “XIII” - the as yet untitled album is expected in the summer of 2006. In the United States, the album will be released on the band’s Filthy Hands label with distribution by Megaforce Records. The recent alliance with Megaforce Records will also ensure an international release for the highly anticipated new disc.
