Mike IX Williams

Early 2013 saw the emergence of Corrections House, an industrial project involving Williams plus members of Neurosis, Nachtmystium, and Yakuza.

In 2006, he began a hardcore punk band along with Phil Anselmo named Arson Anthem. He's the band's singer. Williams stated on 2008 that his desire with this band is that it makes people explore early hardcore punk, what he listened to when he had no responsibility and used to ride on his skateboard.

In 2005, Williams' first book, Cancer as a Social Activity, was released. The book includes old lyrics and portions of collages that Williams assembled for Eyehategod which date back as far as 1988 as well as unreleased stuff, written during the period of two or three years before the release of the book. The book also shows Eyehategod's history. It was mostly written in New Orleans and New York City but there are also part which were written while he was travelling.

When Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, on August 29, 2005, Williams was at his home in the Lower Garden District with his then-girlfriend. About eight hours after the beginning of the storm the power went out. By listening to battery powered radio announcements they were able to find out that the situation in New Orleans was quite bad. After the hurricane passed, the water in Williams' neighborhood subsided. At this time violence and crime in the area became rampant and the police were not in a position to help the residents.

Williams was invited to join Eyehategod by Jimmy Bower in 1988. Since then, all Eyehategod albums have featured his vocals which have been described as "tortured laryngitis screams", an "indecipherable ranting" and "the utmost sickening, puke-ridden audio atrocities that could actually prove deadly if taken in large doses".
