Maudlin biography
MAUDLIN is a Belgian psychedelic sludge core band that, according to the bandmembers, sounds like a mix between NEUROSIS, TYPE-O-NEGATIVE, MASTODON and PINK FLOYD. The band was formed in late November 2004. Two months later, they unleashed their dark and doomy sound on a live audience which has, since then, become a recurring event. The first six months after that first gig, MAUDLIN was on stage every single week. In between gigs, the band worked on their material which led to the release of their first album "Solitary Echo" on Offerandum Records in 2006.

The release of their debut album quickly led to bigger shows, small but interesting weekend supporting tours and a few European tours that took the band to France, Spain, Italy, Slovenia, Austria, Germany, Denmark, Hungary and The Netherlands. The release of the bands sophomore album, "Ionesco", in 2008 led MAUDLIN to the next level of their development while employing a strong conceptual aspect to the album's theme and lyrics. "Ionesco" is built around the theme of transorbital lobotomy, a surgery first performed on Sue Ellen Ionesco in '50s. The procedure, where both halves of the brain are separated, was thought to be the cure for depressions. Each song on the album has two titles. Each title stands for a hemisphere of the brain. All lyrics put in row form one story of a fictive person who undergoes Dr. Freeman's cure against depression. It's not a story about the surgery, but about the feelings, thoughts, moments and reasons.

February 15th, 2013 marked the release of the band's third album "A Sign Of Time" which continued to broaden the band's sound and themes. MAUDLIN has gone through a couple of linueup changes, the current lineup consists of Jasper BULLYNCK and Kris VANNECKE on guitar and vocals, Yannick DUMAREY on bass, Davy VANDENBROECKE on drums and Davy DE SCHROODER on vocals and samples.
