Mushroomhead is an American alternative metal band that emerged from the depths of Cleveland, Ohio, in 1993. The group is known for its theatrical live shows and the distinct image of its members wearing unique masks, which have become a staple characteristic of their identity. Blending elements of heavy metal, electro-industrial, and nu metal, Mushroomhead established themselves with an experimental sound that defies easy categorization.

Throughout their career, Mushroomhead has undergone numerous line-up changes, but they managed to maintain a consistent presence in the heavy metal scene. Their discography showcases a progression of their sound while also exploring various thematic concepts. Albums like “XX” (2001) and “XIII” (2003) saw their popularity rise with a mix of aggressive riffs and electronic textures. Following releases such as “Savior Sorrow” (2006) and “Beautiful Stories for Ugly Children” (2010) continued to develop their fusion of genres. Mushroomhead's more recent albums, “The Righteous & The Butterfly” (2014), with heavy-hitters like "Qwerty", and “A Wonderful Life” (2020), featuring tracks like "The Heresy" and "Seen It All", exhibit the band's ongoing evolution and enduring appeal to a dedicated fan base seeking the darker, more theatrical side of metal.
