Biography

New Orleans, LA, United States (2003 – present)

MUTEMATH is an band which formed in New Orleans, LA, United States in 2003. They consist of Paul Meany (vocals, Rhodes, keytar, keyboards, samples), Roy Mitchell-Cárdenas (bass, percussion), Darren King (drums, samples), and Todd Gummerman (guitar, keyboards, backing vocals).

Since MUTEMATH released its first EP in late 2004 and hit the road in 2005, their inherent nature has challenged limitations and expanded parameters. By the time of the 2006 self-titled debut, their blending of adverse genres into its own innovative sonically adventurous creation earned them a reputation as one of modern music’s most daring young groups. By 2007, they would find themselves Grammy nominated and declared by Alternative Press as “the #1 band you need to see live before you die.” But in the process of pushing boundaries even further for themselves, they almost pushed themselves out of existence during the making of their sophomore album Armistice. “It was a risk we had to take,” says King looking back on what they set out to accomplish for Armistice. “This record was by far the most painful music-making experience I’ve ever had, but also the one I’m most proud of.”

The band is best known for their 2007 single “Typical”, taken from their 2006 self titled album. The song’s innovative backwards video was nominated for a Grammy in 2008 for Best Short Form Music Video. Speaking with Songfacts in a 2011 interview, Darren King poked fun at the somewhat futile nomination : “For the rest of our career, we get to say “Grammy nominated band.

    is there a problem that they are tagged as christian? I thought they were anyway. Great band, definitely underrated. His voice gives me a boner.

    Its weird. I just noticed that I have "Super Compatibility" according to Last.fm, with everyone that commented on this page. IT Kinda makes you wonder, doesn't it? What is it about this band that brings so many similar people together?

    I'm listening to them again and its nice that their new album, Odd Soul, voices pretty much every kind of problem and doubt that I'm having at this stage of my life. Its nice to have some company in my misery, and know that this stuff is legit, I'm not just over-thinking it.
