Mad at Gravity was a rock ensemble that operated between 2001 and 2003. The band's name was inspired by a poem penned by frontman J. Lynn Johnston at the age of 19, which he believed held significant universal meaning.
History
Originating in Southern California around 2000, the group secured a contract with ARTISTdirect shortly after performing approximately twelve live gigs. Their first album, Resonance, achieved a peak position of No. 41 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart.
In support of the album, Mad at Gravity embarked on tours alongside Creed, Filter, Sevendust, and Jerry Cantrell from Alice in Chains.
Their track "Walk Away" attained No. 38 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock charts. The accompanying music video incorporated scenes from the movie Reign of Fire, which also featured their songs "Walk Away" and "Burn" during the end credits. The band disbanded in 2003 after Johnston left due to creative disagreements; efforts to find a replacement did not succeed.
