Vended is an American nu metal band from Des Moines, Iowa, founded in 2018.[3] 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.[4] They are joined by bassist Jeremiah Pugh, and guitarists Cole Epseland and Connor Grodzicki. Vended released the EP What Is It//Kill It in 2021,[5] as well as several stand-alone singles.

History

[edit]

Vended was formed in 2018 by Griffin Taylor and Simon Crahan when they were teenagers; the duo then recruited Jeremiah Pugh, Cole Epseland, and Connor Grodzicki.[6] Their name is pronounced with emphasis on the second syllable: "ven-DEAD", and is based on the word vendetta.[4] The band avoided touring during their first few years due their young age.[7]

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.[8][9] This assertion has been supported by the elder Taylor and Crahan.[10][11][12]

Their first live performance was in Des Moines in March 2020,[13] 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.[14] 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.[15] The five-song EP What Is It//Kill It was released in November 2021.[5] In late 2022 Vended toured the United States with Jinjer and P.O.D.[16] Vended released several stand-alone singles starting in 2022.[17][18]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
