MOBZILLA RADIO

Biografía

Shai Hulud is a hardcore band with progressive metal influences. The name comes from the name given by the Fremen to the giant Sandworms of planet Arrakis in Frank Herbert's "Dune" books. The band is famous within the hardcore scene for their often complex compositions, misanthropic lyrics and revolving-door line-up. Originally hailing from Florida, the band later moved up to Poughkeepsie, NY. The two mainstay members of Shai Hulud are considered to be Matt Fox (guitar) and Matt Fletcher (originally guitar, but then moved on to bass), who together write most of the band's musical output. After the release of 2003's "That Within Blood Ill-Tempered" and a number of tours going into the subsequent year, vocalist Geert Van Der Velde decided to leave the band. Initially, most people took this as the end of Shai Hulud, despite their previously high membership turnover rate, and this seemed to be the case until Matt Fox and Matt Fletcher came out on the band's homepage indicating that they would not be breaking up; instead, the band would change name to The Warmth of Red Blood and continue what had started with Shai Hulud. At the same time, they also started requesting that anyone who considered themselves up for the challenge of taking over vocal duties record a demo of themselves performing the track "Whether to Cry or Destroy". In March of 2006, the band announced they were abandoning the moniker 'The Warmth Of Red Blood' and keeping the name Shai Hulud. The band signed for Metal Blade Records and released Misanthropy Pure in 2008.
