It’s over six years since Cave In founder Stephen Brodsky and Converge drummer Ben Koller last released an album as Mutoid Man, but the pair have hardly been idle. Between them, they’ve played on around 10 albums since 2017, while MM have worked as the house band for metal chat show Two Minutes To Late Night, regularly contributing to their lockdown cover version series. This return to active duty, with High On Fire bassist Jeff Matz replacing the departed Nick Cageao, hits that sweet spot between the serious business of their principal bands and the ridiculously enjoyable nature of their internet-based side hustle.

I was worried that Mutoid Man might never record again. After all, Mutoid Man felt in so many ways like Stephen Brodsky letting himself cut loose and make wild and uninhibited, super-shreddy heavy music after the close of Cave In for the umpteenth time. And what a mighty ruckus they made: I was one of the lucky few to get that initial EP Helium Head just as it dropped, living by a providential fluke in the same small Virginia town that was home to their initial record label Magic Bullet, and followed them devoutly ever since. Their magic was on delivering what Cave In had always promised, taking that wave of metalcore which always danced between the brutish swagger of hardcore, the keening and wicked metal riffs of groups like Slayer as well as the early wave of death metal and the dalliances with prog and alternative music as each of those bands began to age and mature.

So, some lore real quick. Six years and a month ago, I joined this team, back when we went under a different name. It just so happened that’s also when Mutoid Man dropped War Moans, a bastard of an album, action-packed with so many good riffs, vocals, writing, drums, and more that I regularly return to it along with their other albums. It was the first album I reviewed and the first article I put up on the site – number one. All this time later, I’m at a very interesting milestone myself, Mutoid Man are back, and there’s no other way I’d rather spend my 501st article for Everything Is Noise than reviewing their new album.

More quotes:
“Fast, pummeling, shreddy and catchy as all hell” – Revolver
"Mutoid Man made the metal album of the year" – Stereoboard
“'Mutants' is an album that evolves beyond the confines of any one genre, defying expectations and delivering an experience that is both exhilarating and unpredictable.”
– Uncut Magazine
“Mutants perfects the balance between technicality and bore-into-brain hooks. The energy is bristling and unparalleled, the songs are unfettered earworms, and it's an album that will be sitting atop 'best of' lists come year's end.”
9/10 – Metal Hammer Magazine
Just like the rest of us, Mutoid Man guitarist Stephen Brodsky dove deep into the Van Halen catalog following Eddie’s death in the fall of 2020. The Massachusetts-raised musician explains to Guitar World that around that time, he started filling out his vinyl collection with key releases from the revolutionary hard rockers.
While Brodsky confesses the lighting-quick lickin’ he surges into Setting Sun – the final track from Mutoid Man’s upcoming Mutants album – might sport a bit of EVH in its DNA, it took the guitarist a long time to build up the flashiest elements of his own style.

Later this month, heavy metal supergroup Mutoid Man — singer/guitarist Stephen Brodsky of Cave In, bassist Jeff Matz of High On Fire, and drummer Ben Koller of Converge — will release Mutants, the follow-up to 2017’s War Moans. They’ve already dropped lead single “Call Of The Void” and “Siren Song.” Today, we’re getting a final album preview called “Demons.”

Mutoid Man have just released their latest ripping cut from the upcoming album Mutants. "Demons" is another wild mix of punk rock and metal — as unpredictable as it is infectious. Mutants is Mutoid Man's first full album of new material since 2017's War Moans. The band, which features Steven Brodsky (Cave In), Ben Koller (Converge) and Jeff Matz (High on Fire), have already released the singles "Call of the Void" and "Siren Song," which both expand on the band's raging style.

"It’s been six years since heavy metal power trio Mutoid Man released War Moans, their last album. The members of this particular band all have other commitments — singer/guitarist Stephen Brodsky to Cave In and his various other projects, bassist Jeff Matz to High On Fire, drummer Ben Koller to Converge. But now the beast is back. Mutoid Man’s new album Mutants is coming out next month, and they’ve already dropped the insane video for lead single “Call of the Void.” Today, they’ve got another one."

"Mutoid Man — the punky hard-rock trio comprised of Cave In's Stephen Brodsky, Converge's Ben Koller and High on Fire's Jeff Matz — are gearing up to drop their long-awaited new album, Mutants. It's the follow-up to 2017's War Moans, and the band's first with Matz on bass. Back in May, Mutoid Man offered up the LP's ripping lead single, "Call of the Void." Today (June 15th), they're back with its second, the raucous rock & roll anthem “Siren Song.” The song arrived accompanied by a cool animated music video directed by Loverman. Watch and listen above via YouTube."

"I don’t think I can be objective here. For a long time now, Mutoid Man has been kicking ass and too many people on this planet either don’t know they exist or have never heard them. And that’s some straight up bullshit — especially when they consistently put out bangers like the latest single, “Siren Song.”
