Hellyeah

Hellyeah is an American heavy metal supergroup, consisting of Mudvayne vocalist Chad Gray, former Nothingface guitarist Tom Maxwell, bass player Kyle Sanders, guitarist Christian Brady and former Pantera and Damageplan drummer Vinnie Paul. The idea to form a supergroup originated in 2000 on the Tattoo the Earth tour, although plans were constantly put on hold due to scheduling conflicts. The summer of 2006 allowed the band to take the project seriously and record its first album. Recorded at Chasin' Jason studio in Dimebag Darrell's backyard, a self-titled album was completed in roughly one month. Released on April 10, 2007, the album entered the Billboard 200 at number 9, selling 45,000 copies. Allmusic reviewer William Ruhlmann stated the album is "a competent example of its genre" awarding the album three and a half stars.

History

Formation and early days

Hellyeah's beginnings can be traced back to 2000 on the Tattoo the Earth tour featuring Mudvayne, Nothingface, Slayer, Slipknot and Sevendust. Nothingface guitarist Tom Maxwell became friends with Mudvayne vocalist Chad Gray, and they talked about the possibility of forming a supergroup. The following year, Nothingface toured with Mudvayne and talks to form the supergroup continued, although were constantly put on hold due to scheduling conflicts. At this time, Gray and Maxwell had brainstormed five band names.

    Hellyeah (album)

    Hellyeah is the debut album by the heavy metal band Hellyeah, featuring various members of Pantera, Mudvayne, Damageplan and Nothingface. According to MusicMight, the band finished album recordings in January 2007, and the single "You Wouldn't Know" went to U.S. radio in late February. This is the only album to feature original bassist Jerry Montano.

    "You Wouldn't Know" is about the difficulty of maintaining one's integrity in the profit-obsessed music industry. "Thank You" is a tribute to all of the band's recently departed family members: Vinnie Paul's brother Dimebag Darrell, Tom Maxwell's mother, and Chad Gray's grandmother.

    The album debuted at #9 on the Billboard 200, selling 45,000 copies in its first week. As of September 26, 2007, it has sold 188,670 copies in the U.S.

    by: Hell Yeah

    Fuck the norm, I can't understand
    Live my life, by the rules of no one
    I am me, that can't be wrong
    I do what I do, when I do, that's how I like it
    Conformity, amputate my soul
    Made of stone, smashed the mold
    Indifferent, so fuck you all that
    Whine, bitch, nag, complain, cry
    If ya don't give a shit ya getcha' hellyeah
    Throwin' fists in the pit ya getcha' hellyeah
    Think you're fuckin' with this well hell no.
    Balls, volume, strength getcha come on
    Drinking beer smoking weed ya getcha' hellyeah
    Gotta bruised attitude ya getcha' hellyeah,
    Think you're fuckin' with this well hell no
    Balls, volume, strength getcha' come on
    Fuck you all, that won't understand
    Be a man, no more and no less,
    I'm just me, no matter what you say,
    I am, who I am, what I am, that's how I like it
    Typical, fucking lifeless clones
    My attitude, embrace my own
    I don't care, so just walk away and live your
    Dull, dead, bland, boring, life
    If ya don't give a shit ya getcha' hellyeah
    Throwin' fists in the pit ya getcha' hellyeah
    Think you're fuckin' with this well hell no.
    Balls, volume, strength getcha' come on
    Drinking beer smoking weed ya getcha' hellyeah
    Gotta bruised attitude ya getcha' hell yeah,
    Think you're fuckin' with this well hell no
    Balls, volume, strength getcha' come on
    Don't give a fuck and don't think I ever will,
    For the prim and the proper it's a shallow jagged pill,
    Don't really care if you like me
    I just hold up my drink and get my HELLYEAH!
    So point your fingers and throw your stones,
    I'll be smokin' and drinkin' and breaking fucking bones
    To all you fuckin' people thinking you're better than me,
    I hold up my middle finger and give my hellyeah!
    If ya don't give a shit ya getcha' hellyeah
    Throwin' fists in the pit ya getcha' hellyeah
    Think you're fuckin' with this well hell no.
    Balls, volume, strength getcha' come on
    Drinking beer smoking weed ya getcha' hellyeah
    Gotta bruised attitude ya getcha' hellyeah,
    Think you're fuckin' with this well hell no
    Balls, volume, strength getcha' come on
    HELLYEAH!
    Got your whiskey and weed
    HELLYEAH!
    Balls volume and strength
