-==Early Life==
-Matt Pryor was born in [[Kansas City, Missouri]] in 1978. He attended St Peter's Elementary and [[Bishop Miege High School]], where he met his future wife. Pryor was raised Catholic, but described his experience with the church as "bigoted, mysoginist & homophobic."<ref name="Spirituality">{{cite podcast |host=Fred Herron|title=The Mental Journey - Spirituality Adventures Feat.

-Pryor's father played accordion when he was young, but otherwise describes his family as "not particularly musical."<ref name="Blind">{{cite episode |title=MATT PRYOR covers REGINA SPEKTOR (Blind Covers #21) |series=Blind Covers |date=3 November 2019 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0I3n9b_Ns0 |network= |season=3 |number=21 |last=Thompson |first=Mitch (host)}}</ref> He described himself as a "young metalhead in grade school," citing [[Guns 'n' Roses]] and [[Motley Crue]] as early influences.<ref name="Spirituality"></ref>
- Those bands, along with the likes of [[Metallica]] and [[The Misfits]] led him to discover the [[Washington, D.C. hardcore]] scene. Pryor was especially inspired by the [[DIY]] ethics of bands like [[Minor Threat]], [[Fugazi]] and [[The Descendants]], which led him to get involved in the local Kansas City underground music scene.<ref name="Spirituality"></ref>

-Matt Pryor's first involvement with music began as a drummer & guitarist with the post-punk band Take a Joke. The band released one cassette, entitled ''Bicycles for Afghanistan,'' a reference to a chapter from [[Cat's Cradle]] by [[Kurt Vonnegut]].<ref name="Spirituality"></ref> After that was a stint with an [[avant-garde]] [[noise rock]] band named Secular Theme, reflecting later "I used the guitar more as a weapon of torture rather than something to write melodies on."<ref name="Spirituality"></ref>
-After Secular Theme, Pryor began to drift more toward [[pop punk]], joining the band Secret Decoder Ring, where he met future Get Up Kids collaborator [[Jim Suptic]].<ref name="Spirituality"></ref> After the dissolution of that band, the Suptic recruited his childhood friend [[Rob Pope]] and Nathan Shay, who he had recently met in art school to form The Get Up Kids.
