"Mudshovel" (originally "Mudshuvel") is a song by the American rock band Staind.

It originally appeared in a heavier form as 'Mudshuvel' on their debut album Tormented.

Musically, both versions of "Mudshovel" rely on a distinctive three-note bass line that shifts into a rumbling low accompanied by a guitar playing rapidly ascending and descending natural harmonics on the A string which pulsate with the rhythm.

The re-recorded version is more polished than the one that appeared on Tormented, taking out the screams, double kick, and chugging guitar to fit the modern rock radio format where it succeeded.

It mostly consists of the band playing in an enclosed arena on an elevated glass stage above a mosh pit and frontman Aaron Lewis clutching a loose gate.
