"dredg is an American progressive alternative band from Los Gatos, California. Their first studio album, Leitmotif, was released by the Universal music label on September 11, 2001. Prior to that, it had been self-released by the members of the band. After the album gained retail space, dredg acquired an almost immediate cult following, owing much to Leitmotif's unique sound and concept. A movie has been planned to be released, as a music video for the entire album, though the project has been stalled. Industry Demos is a collection of four songs from 2001 that dredg recorded before they were signed to impress record labels. The four songs are 'Of the Room', 'Redrawing the Island Map', 'Running Through Propellers', and 'The Papal Insignia.' Despite the fact that the band has not spoke out about these songs, and has not played them as of late (although 'Propellers' has made an appearance on setlists), these songs remain very popular with fans. Of the Room was rerecorded and released on dredg's second album El Cielo.

El Cielo, their second album, which was released on October 8, 2002, is also a concept album. Prominent influences on the album's concept and themes are painter Salvador Dalí's life and a particular painting, Dream Caused by the Flight of a Bumblebee around a Pomegranate One Second Before Awakening (the first track on the album is named 'Brushstroke:dcbtfoabaaposba'). On June 21, 2005, dredg's third album, Catch Without Arms, was released. A video for the single 'Bug Eyes' was released. For the spring of 2006, dredg played on the Taste of Chaos tour, which also featured Deftones, Atreyu and Thrice as headlining bands. Also, dredg headlined their own tour with Ours and Ambulette."
