Jeffrey Hatrix

Jeff Hatrix, also known as Jeffrey Nothing (born Jeffrey Lewis Hetrick; May 5, 1963), is an American musician, best known as the former clean vocalist for the heavy metal band Mushroomhead.

His nickname comes from a scene in Blue Velvet.

With a wide variety of face paint and mask designs, Jeffrey's most known look is that of a butcher.

However, he revealed a new look in the music video of "Your Soul Is Mine", showing a tan skin mask that somewhat resembles the infamous Leatherface from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies.

Two of his masks were made from face-molds of famous actors Christopher Lloyd and Bela Lugosi.

His most recent incarnation is that of a mask resembling human hands.

He is signed as a solo artist to Suburban Noize Records.

Hatrix was born Jeffrey Lewis Hetrick in Cleveland, Ohio.

He grew up going to church and left at age 12 when he became agnostic.

He is now a born-again Christian.

He is married and also has a daughter from a previous relationship.

Hatrix was the co-founder and clean vocalist of the Cleveland-based metal band Mushroomhead.

He was also the singer of the Cleveland-based thrash metal band Hatrix, as well as fronting the band Purgatory in the mid-1980s.

Hatrix also plays guitar in the band Foose, under the stage name "Bob Keeshan".

In June 2007, Hatrix launched his own clothing line.

In 2011, he began to pursue acting and starred in the movie 13th Sign with ex-Mushroomhead vocalist Waylon Reavis.

On New Year's Day 2011, Hatrix announced that The New Psychodalia album will be "Coming Very Soon" via his personal Facebook account.

In June 2011, Hatrix's solo band Nothing signed to Suburban Noize Records.

When asked about the upcoming record, Hatrix stated: "The whole album is about escaping reality. People choose a variety of ways to feel better in the face of the depression that can be caused by trying to survive in a world that can seem completely uncaring and smothering," commented Nothing about the album.

"'The New Psychodalia' is like a new safe hallucinogenic that makes all the ugliness in the world beautiful, with no harmful side effects. The entire album is kind of like a twisted, thought provoking view of the truths. It exposes the lies of the American dream that has really become more of a nightmare."

On August 22, 2011, Hatrix debuted the first single from The New Psychodalia on RevolverMag.com.

On March 7, 2018, Hatrix announced that he had left Mushroomhead.

Hatrix will be appearing in the upcoming horror film Dwellers, which is being directed by Drew Fortier and produced by David Ellefson and Thom Hazaert, via their newly formed production company, Ellefson Films.
