Co-founder and drummer Steve "Skinny" Felton is the only member who has been with the band throughout its entire history. - The band is known for its avant-garde sound that combines elements of heavy metal, industrial music, hip-hop, and techno. Their theatrical live performances are a key feature, often including horror-inspired imagery and water drums. - Over a career spanning three decades, Mushroomhead has released nine studio albums and sold more than two million records globally. Their 2014 album, *The Righteous & the Butterfly*, was their first to reach the top 20 on the Billboard 200 chart. - Tour support act Psychostick is a comedic metal band from Arizona that self-describes their style as "humorcore." They gained significant early attention through heavy rotation on satellite radio and the viral internet success of their song "BEER!". - Black Satellite is a rock duo from New York City composed of Larissa Vale and Kyle Hawken. The band, which blends industrial and metal sounds, has previously toured with artists such as John 5, Fozzy, and Cradle of Filth. - Mind Incision is a Denver-based metal "supergroup" formed in 2022, featuring members from former national acts Arcanium and Motograter.
