Staind have released a live version of “Mudshovel” from their upcoming album, Live: It’s Been Awhile, due out May 7 via Yap’em/Alchemy Recordings. “Mudshovel” is from the band’s 1996 debut album Tormented.
“There hasn’t been a gig since we first wrote this song in ’96 where we haven’t played ‘Mudshovel,'” said Staind guitarist Mike Mushok. “It’s definitely become a fan favorite, and I have as much fun playing it now as I did back then.”
The Live: It’s Been Awhile album will be accompanied by “The Return Of Staind,” a two-part global streaming series in partnership with Danny Wimmer Presents.
Staind is also set perform its multi-platinum 2001 album Break The Cycle in its entirety for a May 8 streaming event.
