Singled Out: Mushroomhead's Come On

Welcome to Singled Out! where we ask artists to tell us the inside story of their latest single. Today Jeffrey Nothing from Mushroomhead tells us about "Come On" from their brand new album Beautiful Stories for Ugly Children," which hits stores tomorrow. We now turn it over to Jeffrey for the story:

"Come On" is about us, as a people and perhaps as a Nation, have had enough... and seriously how much more do "They" think we can take? It's about rebellion and standing up. It's being fed up.

I came up with a verse, then Waylon's verse. It all just started to vibe and feel good. We merged them into "Come On, do you wanna f**k with me." Skinny our drummer and producer said it was great and we were off. Actually, my part was written from a serial killer's perspective. When you think of it, serial killers are for the most part feeling invincible and anonymous.

This was one of the last songs we recorded. We felt we had a good record going into finishing our new album "Beautiful Stories For Ugly Children," so this song was icing on the cake. In some ways it felt like "Come On" wrote itself, but there was some shifting around of parts. We just started playing it live on our new tour last week and the kids already know all the lyrics. That's always a good sign.

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the album - right here!
