Shai Hulud is a hardcore band with progressive metal influences. Originally formed in Pompano Beach, Florida, the band later moved up to Poughkeepsie, New York.
The name comes from the name given by the Fremen to the giant Sandworms of planet Arrakis in Frank Herbert’s “Dune” books. The band is famous within the hardcore scene for their often complex compositions, misanthropic lyrics and revolving-door line-up.
Shai Hulud has become one of the most influential bands in the underground hardcore, metalcore and post-hardcore scene. Bands like 7 Angels 7 Plagues, Alove for Enemies, As Hope Dies, As I Lay Dying, Behind Crimson Eyes, Crimson Falls, It Prevails, Many Men Have Tried, Mayday Parade, Misery Signals, MYCHILDREN MYBRIDE, Poison the Well, See You Next Tuesday, Silverstein, The Funeral Pyre, The Banner, Unearth and many more have cited Shai Hulud as an influence.
History
Matt Fox (guitar) and Dave Silber (Bass) formed Shai Hulud in 1995 with Damien Moyal on vocals, Jason Lederman on drums, and Oliver Chapoy on guitar. “Matt was playing in several other kinds of bands like rock bands and they just wanted to play some hardcore” says former bassist Jared Allen. However, things with Jason Lederman didn’t work out and the band began to look for a new drummer. This, unfortunately, would be something the band would become accustomed to. In 1994, Steve Kleisath and Matt Fox met for the first time in Tampa, FL, when Matt was filling in on drums for Strongarm, the band Steve later joined as drummer.

when his voice wasn't breaking it DID sound a lot like Geert. I wish they wouldn't have had the slick production on misanthropy pure and the guy who did vocals was alright but seemed kind of monotonous... never really changed his tone.

I'm eager to see the newest singer. I wasn't able to see Hulud with Matt #3 live. Last time I saw them was with Eric Dellon.

Hulud wasn't booted from the NFG tour, they dropped off because of poor response from the crowd and probably would have gone into even worse debt had they stuck through the entire tour. I didn't realize the vocalist Matt from Misanthropy Pure left. Bummer. I will still be seeing them in Chicago and Indy.

i have no idea waht happened to him. i know they were booted from the new found glory tour last year, PROBABLY because they were shai hulud. and i know that afterwards, they toured japan for a few shows, and geert came back for a short bit. i heard rumors of him wanting to leave the band to spend time with his girlfriend/wife after they just had a baby, but that's just a rumor, i can't confirm it. mazalli was decent on "misanthropy pure" but i hated seeing him live.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l89eq3fPuC0 so what do we think of the new singer? Mike Moynihan is his name, and dude is like young as hell, but i think he sounds good in the few videos i've seen. reminds me a lot more of Geert than of any of the other Shai Hulud singers. regardless, stoked to see them on tour! not so stoked on Living Sacrifice -_-
