Murderdolls are a / band fronted by Wednesday 13, formerly of Frankenstein Drag Queens From Planet 13. One of their primary influences is the Glam Metal genre.

The band were originally promoted as the “other band” of Joey Jordison, the drummer of Slipknot, or a “collaboration” between Jordison and Tripp Eisen, created after the disbandment of The Rejects.

Although, as the group grew more popular it came to light that Wednesday 13 was the driving force behind the band. Most of the tracks on the Murderdolls album coming his previous band Frankenstein Drag Queens From Planet 13, which introduced a whole new audience to the past music of Wednesday 13.

The band are often described as “Mötley Crüe meets The Misfits” by critics and fans alike. Strangely, bassist Eric Griffin bears a considerable resemblance to the Motley Crue bassist; Nikki Sixx

Shock Rocker Marilyn Manson made a guest appearance in the bands promotional video for “Dead In Hollywood”, returning the favour of Joey Jordison earlier appearing in his video for “Tainted Love”.

Since their formation in 2001, the Murderdolls have toured with acts varying from Iron Maiden to Queens of the Stone Age, Papa Roach and Foo Fighters, and have been supported by the likes of Anti-Product and Eighties Matchbox. The band have had limited success in the United States so far, but their core fan base seems to be in the United Kingdom and Japan.
