The Wild History of Staind

Staind's vocalist Aaron Lewis and guitarist Mike Mushok explain the history of Staind as we celebrate their brand new album 'Confessions of the Fallen'. Staind is one of the most beloved hard rock bands of the last 30 years and they're back together with brand new music.
I'd appreciate it if you took a moment to follow :)

I watched the full interview with Aaron, a few days ago. By far the best Aaron Lewis interview I've ever seen. If your a Staind fan you need to watch it. He goes very much in depth with the highs and lows of being a rock star. He tells you a few things you probably didn't know about him. Very interesting interview. Aaron is a very honest and genuine person. I love how he tells the truth no matter the cost. Can't wait for the new album tomorrow!

[@stevenclyde5400]

Thickest vocal cords in history!

[@SlapNSniff]

I've been blasting TORMENTED since 1997. One of my favorite albums. Also met Staind in 1999. All of them were really nice guys

[@bryguy9233]

I love Staind. I'm sooo stoked for midnight tonight so I can listen to this album at work tonight. And this record sounds great so far

[@ginoariel8697]

Just came on here to say we just saw Staind live last night in Worcester Massachusetts 4-27-24 ! We feel so lucky and fortunate 😊 incredible voice

[@ericplumb5737]

I was there too! Great show!!

[@joshuamichel3650]

Aaron, mike and the guys are truly a generational talent and some of the most realest easy going dudes. Im honored tbh to have grown through and with their music. ❤️

[@AnthonyE_73]

The new album is incredible!!! Every song is a banger!!!

[@WesleyAPEX]

My favorite is Cycle of Hurting

[@jakeb9444]

I still want a Staind rarities and unreleased songs album with stuff like "let it out" and "something like me" on it

[@AaronSarmiento-Montellano]

I wish “Bring The Noise” was also released

[@donut_lyfe]

This has really really been a great interview. Thank you.

[@russdennis7026]

What a great Interview. Thank you for sharing.

[@grimtarquin3861]

Dude Mike came to my high school to meet back in 2017. Short conversation but he was such an awesome chill dude.

[@srmitch9260]

New record is fantastic! Staind will always be legends

[@aliciahartwell24]

Watching Aaron smile and laugh. Really made my day..like for real♥️🖤🤍

[@ghostlyworld101]

This is the best breakdown interview of how Staind took off. Aaron winged it that night and winged it on his 1st country song off a bet w his plummer...can't make it up. Legendary

[@Lt_Vester]

Gotta love Mike man. Is there a longer interview with just him? I know there was for Aaron.

[@jon55gdl]

This. Im curious too.

[@societydwellingifd766]

*_I just went and listened outside live again and it brought back feelings I had when i first heard it. I thank Staind for that song and its strange how I can relate to it still to this day as I'm laying in bed all alone._*

[@societydwellingifd766]

*_listened to_*

[@csnrock]

Very beautiful interview, thank you! 🤘🖤

[@dereksendrak]

I was at that show at the Webster theater! Legendary show cuz that’s where we found out later that Staind got signed from by meeting Fred. I remember, everyone was there to see Limo Bizkit, but we were ALL captivated by Aaron’s voice and stage presence. He contorted himself when he sang, it was very weird and anyone that saw them in those early days knows what I mean. So thankful that I remember that show and I got to witness history!🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@lpjohnson120]

I was lucky enough to see Staind on Labor Day, and it was so special! ❤

[@jessycafleck7326]

My hubby and I were there too!

[@littlesherm]

I needed to hear this

[@screenieyt2478]

staind will always have one of the best early day stories

[@chrissybennett7985]

I've seen Staind 5 times now! But last year with Korn was definitely a top tier performance. The 1st time in 2000 was amazing.. Fred Durst made a surprise appearance! 😊💕🎵

[@JasonAdams-w5m]

I'm not sure if he has heard "never alone always lonely" by Cody Jinks but the first time I heard this song I thought Aaron would be the best one to sing it acoustically because I feel he relates. Then I saw this interview and confirmed what I thought. Aaron will always be one of my favorites, stay real we need this in our world today!!!!!

[@Revolutionairy935]

btw, this not a topic to make fun off, they saved my life literally so thanks staind

[@jodyferguson3068]

Staind is one of my most favorite bands

[@Retro-2-now]

I miss Milk Bar. Being a teen and in my early twenties in the 90’s, there were so many shows there. I seen Korn play to a couple hundred people there, of course LB, Soul Fly, and so many punk bands. For anyone not from Jacksonville in the 90’s, Milk Bar was a basement club that held maybe 500 people tops. It was small, dark, low ceilings, exposed plumbing on the ceiling that they had to put lube on to keep people from handing off the plumbing, and dirty. I was lucky enough to be fairly involved in the music scene at that time. So I got into a lot of show for free and was able to hang out in the green room.

[@Friu887]

Great interviews 👌👊🏻🔥

[@domingossilva4840]

Eita banda boa sou fã do Staind!! O Staind conheci através, de duas rádios que gostava muito. 89 a rádio rock e outra rádio que curtia,banda Brasil 2000 a rádio rock. Muitas bandas que conheço hoje foi através dessas rádios abençoada!! Fico muito grato. Não só a banda Staind que conheço quanto outras bandas que são foda quanto o Staind!! O primeiro álbum do Staind que possuir foi o 14 shed of gray esse é um dos top. Depois disso começou à aprofundar mais sobre à banda agora depois de 12 anos os, caras lançou o disco novo, que por sinal é bom de mais!!! Enclusive já abaixei aqui e gostei bastante!!! Acompanhei até, o Aaron Lewis com trabalho solo mandou, muito bem no cowtryn o cara é bom. Achei que à banda tinha acabado devido O Aaron Lewis fazer carreira solo por um tempo más quando fiquei sabendo que ia sair um trabalho do forno,após 12 anos aí fiquei contente!!! Não podia esperar à volta da banda. O Aaron com uma voz espetacular!!

[@cthulhu888]

The tormented cover always reminded me of being in a creepy attic, crazy that it actually was made in one, definitely makes sense tho haha 😆😆

We got to open for staind on the 06 JAGER tour, and they were such cool guys! Arron smokes SO much weed! Lol!!

[@Delboy219]

He gave up weed. Says only libs smoke it. He only drinks strong whiskey, I think.

[@ericsmith6633]

@@Delboy219 that may be true now, but back in 06 when we played with them, he smoked like a champ!! But they were such awesome guys. We opened for them and 3days Grace on the spring jager tour in 06, and they were really great guys. But ya I witnessed 1st hand his puff power lol!

I hope Staind plays at Trump’s inauguration.

[@nwerd7584]

I had no idea about all this back story. When they came up in MA I was more in to the metal and grindcore scene around Boston.. Not some rock bands on the yuppie side of the state.

Loved Staind until they did that album with the "Layne" song on it. Their music was really bland from that point onwards.

[@JeffSmith-it4tm]

Why do rappers openly smoke weed but rockers don't?

Rappers have no shame.

Lol Arron Lewis is a huge pothead. Watch the documentary about them making an album. He pulls out a huge jar of bud.

[@Jaidezilla]

Why is stained all over the place all of a sudden this week? Their music is depressing. They came out when I was younger and they were depressing then and they are depressing now.

If you have such a problem with them, why are you even here then?
