A positively themed metalcore band with some straight-edge and Christian leanings, the influential ShaiHulud has maintained a strong band identity since their original formation in the mid-'90s, even though their apparent inability to stick with one lineup, label, hometown, or even band name has left them with a convoluted history.
ShaiHulud formed in Pompano Beach, FL, taking their name from the giant desert worms central to Frank Herbert's Dune mythology.
After van der Welde departed the band in 2004, Fletcher and Fox announced that ShaiHulud was disbanding following a brief farewell tour (with Gilbert temporarily returning on vocals) and the pair was forming a new band, the Warmth of Red Blood.
The two mainstay members of ShaiHulud are considered to be Matt Fox (guitar) and Matt Fletcher (originally guitar, but then moved on to bass), who together write most of the band's musical output.
ShaiHulud also have a side project named Zombie Apocalypse, whose sound can be summed up as a faster, more chaotic and more manic version of its mother band.
