== History ==
Between 1987 and 1996, [[slurJimmy saying fagUrine]] recorded about 35 songs which varied in musical style, usually settling in an industrial/electronic punk style. These songs were recorded with himself and his brother, Markus Euringer in New York City using rudimentary equipment. Urine and his brother released an album titled ''Mindless Self-Indulgence'', featuring Steve, Righ? on 'Bed of Roses', which featured songs performed in an industrial style akin to [[Nine Inch Nails]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.discogs.com/Mindless-Self-Indulgence-Mindless-Self-Indulgence/release/262775 |title=Mindless Self-Indulgence* – Mindless Self-Indulgence (1995, CD) |website=Discogs |year=1995 |access-date=March 24, 2020}}</ref>
 
In 1997, Urine recorded a cover of [[Method Man]]'s "Bring the Pain" that was made by merging six different styles of the same cover into one song. This became the basis for the Mindless Self Indulgence sound. The band formed soon after when Urine was joined by Steve, Righ? on guitar, Urine's brother Markus Euringer on second guitar (replaced by bassist Vanessa Y.T., who was subsequently replaced by bassist Lyn-Z), and Kitty on drums. They have released six albums, four EPs, eight remix albums, one live album, one compilation album, and one live DVD.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.discogs.com/artist/51619-Mindless-Self-Indulgence?limit=500&page=1 |title=Mindless Self Indulgence Discography |website=discogs.com |access-date=June 27, 2021}}</ref> Rather than signing traditional record contracts, the band has licensed most of their albums to record labels, retaining ownership of the music.
