Timeline

1972

Matthew Pike (born June 3, 1972) is an American musician best known as the guitarist of stoner metal/doom metal band Sleep and the frontman of High on Fire.

1996

However, instead of following a path to mainstream exposure, the band fled further underground, turning down countless major label deals and submitting the one-song, full-length record Jerusalem in mid-1996.

1997

In 1997, the band called it quits after London Records refused to release the Dopesmoker/Jerusalem recordings and the pressure the members were experiencing became unbearable.

Pike couldn't come to terms with the break-up and became depressed.

He soon realized that his career as a musician was far from over, and began inviting people to jam in his garage.

Deciding to work in a power trio again, he brought in Desmond Kensel (drums) and an old friend George Rice (bass) to play in his new band.

Within six months, the jams were headed to fruition and High on Fire was developing from a simple need to play guitar again.

While Pike's guitar tone remained largely the same in his new band, High on Fire, he began playing faster and more aggressively than he had in Sleep.

Pike handles both guitar and vocal duties in the band, as well as writing a bulk of the material.

Pike was the frontman of the Bay Area psychedelic-metal band Kalas (formerly Scum Angel) that featured members of Econochrist, Samiam, and Cruevo.

Pike set aside the guitar for Kalas, as they already featured two guitarists; his vocals were surprisingly melodic, especially compared to his snarling growls in High on Fire.

2006

After only releasing a self-titled album, Kalas split by October 2006.

As a guest star, Pike provided the voice of a Klokateer in the Adult Swim rock comedy Metalocalypse.

2012

In 2012, Pike made his problems with addiction public as he dropped off the Rockstar Mayhem Festival during the summer and went into rehab.

He cited health problems caused by his heavy consumption of alcohol as the reason.

He admitted to having "fallen off the wagon" a few times since.

In addition to this, he has admitted to suffering from bipolar disorder, and has sustained bodily injuries from relentless years of touring.

2018

In 2018, Pike's band High on Fire announced they would be cancelling their upcoming tour due to Pike needing a partial amputation of one of his toes.

2019

With High on Fire, Pike won the 2019 Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance for the song "Electric Messiah".

Pike was born in Southfield, Michigan.

He moved to California after spending time in military school while living with his mother in Golden, Colorado.

Arriving in San Jose, he realized the hardcore punk and heavy metal scenes were more active than the ones in Colorado.

He made friends, attended shows, and eventually joined the sludge metal band Asbestosdeath.

When playing around the Bay Area they developed a much heavier and slower sound more akin to doom metal.

The quartet soon gained a following and changed their name to Sleep.

When fellow Sleep guitarist Justin Marler quit the band, Sleep became a power trio.

The band's second album, Sleep's Holy Mountain, illustrated Pike as a young Tony Iommi, playing Black Sabbath-styled riffs.

As a result of the increased press, the band's demographic and following widened greatly, and major label deals soon began surfacing.

Again on January 7, 2019, they announced via their Instagram that High on Fire would be cancelling their 2019 Electric Messiah tour because of Pike's risk of losing his big toe or part of his foot, due to complications from diabetes.

On August 17, 2019, Pike married musician and tattoo artist Alyssa Maucere in a small ceremony in Las Vegas.

He also has a daughter from a prior relationship.

Through her, he has one granddaughter.
