Darwin's Waiting Room

Darwin's Waiting Room was an American nu metal band from Miami, Florida.

History
Darwin's Waiting Room formed in 1995 and went through several lineup changes before solidifying early in 2000. They signed to MCA Records and released their debut album, Orphan, in 2001. The album peaked at No. 19 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart that year. Following the album's success, they scored airplay with the single "Feel So Stupid (Table 9)" on MTV2, MTVX and Much Music, and toured with Godsmack, Deftones, Nonpoint, and Machine Head. A sophomore effort, Apology Accepted, followed in 2003, but it was not officially released, though leaked online.

In 2004, guitarist Eddie "The Kydd" Rendini made a statement online to Digital Noise, saying:

''I think it is time to let everyone know what exactly is going on with DWR. DWR is officially broken up. We all decided to follow new musical endeavors after a very long and complicated legal battle. So i just wanted to take the time to thank all of our fans for sticking with us, and support us in our new musical endeavors. As for the "Apology Accepted" album, it is currently done and we will try to put that out for all you DWR fans, as our last offering for a while. Thanks for your support... and remember it's never the end... but just always new beginnings! -Edward''

After the band's break-up, both Jabe and Joe started a new band called 75 Winters but they have since disbanded as well. Around the same time, Rendini joined the Jacksonville, FL band Cold, but left later that year.

In 2005, bassist Alex Cando joined Five Bolt Main, a Louisville, KY band, featuring former Flaw vocalist Chris Volz. The band disbanded in late 2006 when Flaw decided to reunite. Cando then joined Flaw for their reunion tour, but parted ways with them in mid-2007. He is currently playing bass for the Illinois band Finding Ghosts and collaborating with Morgan Rose of Sevendust.

In 2009, Grimm began recording a new music project with South Florida producer Ozny, of New Era and has posted a new song from his upcoming album on his Myspace entitled "W2MC (Sunny Weather, Shady People)".

On January 30, 2015, former band member Eddie Rendini died.
