Vended is an American nu metal band from Des Moines, Iowa, founded in 2018.[1] The band features two members who are sons of members of Slipknot: singer Griffin Taylor is the son of Corey Taylor, and drummer Simon Crahan is the son of Shawn "Clown" Crahan.[2] They are joined by bassist Jeremiah Pugh, and guitarists Cole Espeland and Connor Grodzicki. Vended released the EP What Is It//Kill It in 2021,[3] as well as several stand-alone singles.
History
Vended was formed in 2018 by Griffin Taylor and Simon Crahan when they were teenagers; the duo then recruited Jeremiah Pugh, Cole Espeland, and Connor Grodzicki.[4] Their name is pronounced with emphasis on the second syllable: "ven-DEAD", and is based on the word vendetta.[2] The band avoided touring during their first few years due to their young age.[5]
The younger Taylor and Crahan resist comparisons of the band to Slipknot, maintaining that they are largely self-taught musicians and did not receive extensive instructions from their fathers.[6][7] This assertion has been supported by the elder Taylor and Crahan.[8][9][10]
Their first live performance was in Des Moines in March 2020,[11] just before being forced to go on hiatus by the COVID-19 pandemic. They released their first recording, the single "Asylum", on September 21, 2021.[12] Vended released a second single, "Burn My Misery", on October 19 and announced that they would be releasing the EP What Is It/Kill It the following month on November 12.[13] The five-song EP What Is It//Kill It was released in November 2021.[3] In late 2022 Vended toured the United States with Jinjer and P.O.D.[14] Vended released several stand-alone singles starting in 2022.[15][16]
