Biography
Mike Scheidt helped create YOB in 2000, which disbanded in 2006 and then reformed in 2008. Before they disbanded, YOB released a demo and four albums. YOB has shared the stage with other important underground acts like Electric Wizard, High on Fire, Isis, and The Locust as well. He was also in the side project of YOB, which was named H.C. Minds. H.C. Minds have released one full-length album, one EP, and a split album with the band dot(.). Scheidt went on to form the band Middian with Will Lindsay bass and vocals, Scott Headrick on drums, and himself on guitar after YOB split up. When asked about the new sound compared to YOB, Mike replied, "[It] isn't YOB 2.0... Middian is more mid-paced and meaner on average, though there are definite slow doom parts for sure. My singing is as varied as ever, but somehow seems different from YOB. Plus, my bandmates bring their own influences into the mix." Middian released one album, titled Age Eternal. Scheidt then reformed Yob after Middian broke up following a legal dispute over the band name. Yob have since released three further albums.

What Would You Say?
by: Mugshoti lost my love last week to distance
and higher learning
all of these things out of my control
i wont let myself lead an existance
of endless moping
hoping wishing for her kissing on my neck
so what the heck i dont know
yeah were still really good friends
but thats where it ends
gotta learn how to love her
less like a lover more like a brother
and i know things got kinda lame
that wasnt my aim
from the star now
where are you going with my heart
(chorus)
and if somehow i could change things
and make things jsut as she wanted them
than would you stay with me
be straight with me
what would you say to me
what if i took it all away
what would you say to me
so theres no reason you could stay
what would you say to me
what if i took it all away
what would you say to me
so theres no reason you could stay
(bridge)
somebody once said to me
if you love something
set it free
gotta help me to see
just what you mean
am i jsut a victim of philosophy now
and i know things got kinda lame
that wasnt my aim
fromt he start now
where are youg oing with my heart
(chorus)
somedays im feelin like a winner
somedays a lounge singer
and somedays i see clouds
this fate has seperated us
is it our destiny
what would you say to me
