Puddle Of Mudd emerged from the post-grunge squalor of Kansas City, Missouri, in 1991, founded by lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Wes Scantlin. Achieving prominence in the early 2000s, the band’s fame was fueled by the success of their major-label debut album, "Come Clean," which delivered anthemic singles like "Blurry," "She Hates Me," and "Control." These tracks encapsulated the band's gritty, melodic sound that resonated with a generation of rock enthusiasts looking for a bridge between grunge's raw emotion and alternative rock's emerging sensibilities.

Over the years, Puddle Of Mudd navigated through the undulating landscape of rock 'n' roll fame, enduring lineup changes and personal challenges. Despite these obstacles, the band continued to produce music, their discography growing with works like "Life on Display," "Famous," and "Volume 4: Songs in the Key of Love & Hate." After a period of quiet, they returned with the 2019 album "Welcome to Galvania," proving their enduring ability to craft hard-hitting rock tunes. The band has also shown their versatility with "Re:(disc)overed," an album of cover songs that highlights their influences and range as artists. Puddle Of Mudd’s staying power is a testament to their solid fan base and the raw authenticity that Scantlin brings to the music, which continues to evolve while staying true to its roots.
