“Typical” is the Grammy Award nominated debut single from New Orleans rock group Mute Math. The song was written in 2003 by Paul Meany and Darren King. The digital single was released on April 10, 2007. A physical single was released in the UK only on August 27, 2007. Josh Harris club remixes of the song were also released digitally to several outlets on September 18, 2007. The song is also featured as downloadable content on Rock Band and Rock Band 2.
The group has performed the song on both ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live and CBS’ The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson and the video began rotation on MTV Networks in May 2007 beginning with MTVu. An edited form of the song was featured on an advertisement for the Discovery Channel in the spring of 2008.
As of late June, the single started receiving major airplay in Modern Rock and is quickly rising up the Mediabase Alternative chart jumping from #115 to #65 and was also the second most added song on Alternative stations the week of June 13, 2007. The single then jumped to a peak position of #36 the first week of August 2007, remaining there for over 6 weeks[2] and debuted at #39 on Billboard’s US Modern Rock Chart the week of August 4, 2007 where it reached a peak position of #33.[3]
Pillar references Typical in their song “Turn It Up”, which consists entirely of lyrics that inspired the band.

I can't stand the screaming-esque stuff he does at the end. It ruins a perfect song.
