V Shape Mind is an American alternative metal band. They released one major label album in 2003 before disbanding the following year.

Background

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 band released their debut album, "Cul-De-Sac", on September 9, 2003. 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. Consequently, they have since broken up, pointing to difficulties with Universal Records as the key factor. They played their final show together on Thursday, May 6, 2004 at Lincoln Square Theater in their hometown of Decatur, Illinois.

V Shape Mind was featured in a short documentary that focused on their experiences. The film was titled "Up, Down, and No Way Out: The Central Illinois Hard Rock Scene". It was completed in May 2006 and was directed by Kurtis Allen, a student at Eastern Illinois University.
