A Wonderful Life is the eighth album by alternative metal band Mushroomhead, released on June 19, 2020.
After the departure of long-time frontman Jeffrey Nothing and vocalist Waylon Reavis, new vocalist Steve Rauckhorst joined the band to fill in for the clean vocals, until he eventually became a full-time member of the band, along with Jackie LaPonza who was already featured in the song “We Are The Truth” from the band’s previous record, The Righteous & The Butterfly.
A Wonderful Life is also the first album to feature Tommy Shaffner (also known as “Tankx”) on the guitars, replacing Tommy Church.
A Wonderful Life mostly focuses on a slower-paced music than previous records, with cryptic lyrics (as ever with Mushroomhead) exploring religious themes, in a blend of alternative, industrial and heavy metal driven by three vocalists.
