Producer Dennis Herring was brought in to refocus the band, which worked. But that album almost never happened because of bickering between the band members, likely due to 3 years of touring. The song would be featured on the “Spotlight” EP (February 2009) and also on their next album “Armistice” (August 2009). In November 2008, MUTEMATH released the single “Spotlight” for the “Twilight” soundtrack. In January 2008 they released the single “Control” and joined Alanis Morissette on Matchbox Twenty’s tour. So much so that the song was nominated for a Grammy that year.

The single “Typical” gained much attention from publications and did well on the charts. The band would tour in early 2007 opening up for the Fray and Wolfmother. The album was remastered and re-released in September 2006 with a few changes. As the band gained popularity and exposure from playing to thousands at various festivals, the two sides came to a settlement with a renegotiated contract. But the album was only sold on tour due to a dispute with Warner Music Group. MUTEMATH recorded their self titled debut album in late 2005 and was released in January of 2006. Bass player Roy Mitchell-Cardenas joined the band and they began touring, selling all 30,000 copies of the EP. They would come to a deal Warner Music Group in 2004 and release the band’s first EP “Reset”. Teleprompt Records was formed by Tedd T as well as lawyer and former Earthsuit manager Kevin Kookogey to help control the band’s releases. After performing with Adam LaClave’s (another former Earthsuit member) art-rock group Macrosick, they decided to go on their own and change their name to MUTEMATH. Longtime friend and producer Tedd T instantly fell in love with the project and began working with the trio.

They would soon recruit Greg Hill (guitar) and start recording songs. With the band’s brake up in 2003, the two started collaborating on instrumental demos and created the production team “MATH”. The journey started off when Paul Meany (vocals, keyboard) asked Darren King (drums) to fill in for the Christian Rock band Earthsuit in 2001. A band you wish you would’ve listen to a long time ago. And after 10 years of hard work, they’ve become one of the most successfully underrated alternative bands ever. Instead of harming the integrity of the band, they’ve been able to use those obstacles to help evolve their music.

But very few bands have encountered the things that the guys in MUTEMATH have. Most bands struggle in their quest to “make it” in the music industry.
