Clouddead (styled as cLOUDDEAD)<ref name="amg">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref name="nme">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> was an American experimental hip hop group, consisting of Doseone (Adam Drucker), Why? (Yoni Wolf) and Odd Nosdam (David Madson).
The group's name came from a nonsensical knock-knock joke Drucker's sister told him when she was five years old.<ref name="bigdada"/>
StyleEdit
Clouddead's sound is notoriously hard to define, and although it is undoubtedly grounded in "traditional" hip-hop, influences as varied as ambient, electronica, psychedelic music, and indie rock can be heard.
HistoryEdit
Clouddead's first six 10-inch singles were compiled as a self-titled album, Clouddead, in 2001.
Printed on the sleeve of the single "Dead Dogs Two" is "this is cLOUDDEAD number 9 of ten," indicating that as of Ten (2004), Clouddead have finished making music as a group.
