V Shape Mind was formed in 1999 and toured the local Illinois metal scene, during which they self-released an EP titled Metric in 2000.
The band was discovered by renowned producer David Bottrill, who got them signed to Universal Records.
The single "Monsters" features vocals from Mudvayne's Chad Gray and received considerable radio play.
Despite touring with such acts as Mudvayne and Powerman 5000, V Shape Mind struggled to gather any mainstream attention.
They played their final show together on Thursday, May 6, 2004 at Lincoln Square Theater in their hometown of Decatur, Illinois.
