==History==

===Foundation and single releases===
Swollen Members was founded in 1995 by Vancouverites Madchild (Shane Bunting), Prevail (Kiley Hendriks). Having begun a solo career while living in [[San Francisco]], California, Madchild returned to Vancouver to work. In Vancouver, he met Prevail and Moka Only, who had been working together earlier and joined them. The group had to decide on a name and [[Moka Only]] suggested Swollen Members as a joke and it stuck.

The group began testing the international hip-hop waters by releasing four 12-inch vinyl singles on Madchild's own indie label Battleaxe Records initially distributed by New York-based Fat Beats; the singles sold approximately 10,000 copies each.{{Citation needed|date=December 2024}}

In 1999, the group released their debut album “[[Balance (Swollen Members album)|Balance]]” to positive reviews, with features from [[Del the Funky Homosapien]], [[Aceyalone]], and [[Evidence (musician)|Evidence]], who also produced on the album, along with [[The Alchemist (musician)|The Alchemist]] and others. The album peaked at #40 on Canadian alternative albums and #43 on Canadian rap albums.

===2001-2002: Second album and mainstream success===
Following ''Balance'', Swollen Members recorded and released ''[[Bad Dreams (Swollen Members album)|Bad Dreams]]'', released on November 13, 2001, and featuring guests such as [[Chali 2na]] of [[Jurassic 5]], [[Son Doobie]], Joey Chavez, and former member Moka Only. It appealed to both underground and mainstream audiences, reaching platinum status in Canada. The album earned Swollen Members their second Juno Award and four [[MuchMusic Video Awards]] including best rap video, best director and best independent video.<ref>[http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/75393/swollen-members-clean-up-at-muchmusic-awards "Swollen Members Clean Up At MuchMusic Awards"] ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' June 2002</ref>

===2002-2003: ''Monsters in the Closet''===
2002's ''[[Monsters in the Closet (Swollen Members album)|Monsters In the Closet]]'', their third release, brought official group membership for Moka Only and Rob The Viking to Swollen Members. ''Monsters in the Closet'' was a collection of B-sides and outtakes along with three new songs, "Breathe" which featured Portuguese Canadian pop singer, [[Nelly Furtado]]. Production credits include [[Evidence (musician)|Evidence]] from Dilated Peoples. In January 2003, Swollen Members signed with [[Virgin Records]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.chartattack.com/damn/2003/01/0801.cfm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030627162647/http://www.chartattack.com/damn/2003/01/0801.cfm|url-status=usurped|archive-date=June 27, 2003|title=Swollen Members Hash Out Deal With American Major|publisher=[[Chart Attack]]|access-date=February 3, 2019}}</ref>

===2003-2004: ''Heavy''===
In 2003, the band released ''[[Heavy (Swollen Members album)|Heavy]]''. In the same year the songs "All Night" and "Deep End ([[Utah Saints]] Remix)" were featured in the videogame ''[[SSX3]]''. In 2004, the Swollen Members song "The Bottom Line" was featured in the [[video game]]s ''[[WWE Day of Reckoning]]'' and ''[[WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw]]''.

===2005-2006: ''Black Magic''===
In 2005, Moka Only decided to break off from the group for a second time and continue work on his solo career. The following year, Swollen Members released their fifth full album, ''[[Black Magic (Swollen Members album)|Black Magic]]''. It is understood that Madchild and Prevail made an attempt to return to their previously critically acclaimed style and method. Their previous album ''Heavy'' was unlisted on their official site discography. A single from the album, "Put Me On (feat. [[Everlast (musician)|Everlast]])", was released in August 2006. Later that year, Nettwerk Management dropped the group due to Madchild's affiliation with the Hell's Angels.<ref>Woo, Andrea.
