(New York, NY) – As the band has been busy playing to capacity rooms on their Machines Vs Monsters Tour 2025 with GWAR, metal icons Static-X haven’t had a moment to enjoy their debut single “Push It” achieving Gold Record certification by the RIAA in the United States. The song – from the band’s iconic Wisconsin Death Trip album – was certified over a year ago. The AI mouthpiece X-Bot has confirmed “It’s going platinum” in a news broadcast recently uploaded to the band’s YouTube channel. The video calls on the public to continue to push the song towards platinum status or “get a shovel to the face.” The X-Bot broadcast can be seen here.

“It’s crazy how far this band has come in 25 years,” says Tony Campos.” Our fans are so incredible, and the streaming numbers are so consistent. At this point, the world would have to end for ‘PUSH IT’ not to go platinum.”

In conjunction, Warner Records has reissued the music video for “Push It” in High Definition. The unforgettable music video helped launch the band to the masses thanks to the early support of MTV. The video was directed by Mick Olszewski and tapped into the clay animation style that was popular when released in 1999. Now available in High Definition for the first time, fans can experience the video in a whole new way and add to the 33-million views it has received since it published in 2009. The music video for “Push It” can be seen here.

Static-X’s original Wisconsin Death Trip lineup of Tony Campos, Koichi Fukuda, & Ken Jay along with current vocalist/guitarist Xer0 will continue to bring their ultra entertaining Evil Disco extravaganza on the road throughout 2025. Along with festival appearances at Louder Than Life and Aftershock, the band will be supporting Mudvayne on their tour this September and October. Static-X will also be playing 6 headline shows throughout that run. Those dates will see them land in Green Bay, WI (Sep 12), Detroit, MI (Sep 18), Missoula, MT (Oct 02), Hidalgo, TX (Oct 10), Memphis, TN (Oct 17) and Baltimore, MD (Oct 23). Dope will be joining the band on those headline shows. Tickets for all shows including VIP packages can be found at: www.static-x.com.

“We are so excited to be part of the LD 50 – 25th Anniversary Tour with Mudvayne & Vended. This is gonna be such an incredible run of shows and a heck of a way to cap off this year,” states Ken Jay.

2024 was a landmark year in the resurgence of Static-X thanks to the release of Project Regeneration: Vol. 2 (released January 26th) and the successful Machine Killer Tour with friends Sevendust – comprised of 3 legs with multiple sold-out performances. Project Regeneration: Vol 2 was one of Loudwire’s The 51 Best Rock + Metal Albums of 2024 where they declared: “the band in its current form still remains a solid force in driving, industrial tinged music they dub “evil disco.” Project Regeneration: Vol. 2 was always planned as a companion piece to the original Project Regeneration: Vol 1 and the two records combined feature all the remaining material discovered on tape of Wayne Static. The new album was produced by Xer0 and mixed/mastered by long-time collaborator Ulrich Wild. More information on Project Regeneration: Vol. 1 and Project Regeneration: Vol. 2 can be found at: http://www.static-x.com/.

About Static-X

One of the genre-defining bands of the late 90s, Static-X was founded in Los Angeles CA in 1994 by lead vocalist/guitarist Wayne Static and drummer Ken Jay. The band lineup was rounded out by bassist Tony Campos and guitarist/programmer Koichi Fukuda, who collectively inked a deal with Warner Bros records. Static-X rose to fame with their 1999 platinum selling debut album Wisconsin Death Trip and went on to release five more albums over the course of the next decade: Machine in 2001, Shadow Zone in 2003, Start A War in 2005, Cannibal in 2007, and Cult Of Static in 2009. The band has sold more than 3-million albums in the US alone and has had multiple chart-topping radio singles. They have toured the world extensively, and to this day, maintain a reputation for being one of the best live acts in heavy music. In 2012, the band took a break to pursue outside creative interests and on Nov. 1, 2014 Wayne Static unexpectedly passed away. In 2018, the band announced that they were reforming to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of their debut album. The reformed lineup of original members Tony Campos, Koichi Fukuda, Ken Jay and backed by frontman Xer0 delivered acclaimed performances by fans and critics alike. The tour was a massive success, with sold-out shows around the world , proving that Static-X fans remain as committed to the band as ever before. The revitalized Static-X continue to make headlines with their sold-out touring and new music while keeping their signature Evil Disco sound alive.
