Darwin's Waiting Room was an American nu metal band from Miami, Florida.
Darwin's Waiting Room formed in 1995 and went through several lineup changes before solidifying early in 2000. [1] They signed to MCA Records and released their debut album, Orphan , in 2001. [2] The album peaked at No. 19 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart that year. [3] Following the album's success, they scored airplay with the single "Feel So Stupid (Table 9)" on MTV2, MTVX and Much Music, and toured with Godsmack, Deftones, Nonpoint, and Machine Head. [1] A sophomore effort, Apology Accepted, followed in 2003, but it was not officially released, though leaked online. [4]
In 2004, guitarist Eddie "The Kydd" Rendini made a statement online to Digital Noise announcing an amicable end to the music collaboration. [5]
In 2005, bassist Alex Cando joined Five Bolt Main, a Louisville, KY band, featuring former Flaw vocalist Chris Volz. The band disbanded in late 2006 when Flaw decided to reunite. Cando then joined Flaw for their reunion tour, later collaborating with Morgan Rose of Sevendust.
