Bio:

Retro-rock visionaries Monster Magnet spent much of the 1990s struggling against the prejudices imposed upon image and sound by alternative rock fashion nazis. In fact, it wasn't until that movement's late-'90s decline that the band's dogged persistence finally paid off, when their fourth album, Powertrip, catapulted to gold sales status on the strength of its massive hard rock hit, "Space Lord." In the meantime, Monster Magnet had managed to become one of the most successful and influential bands associated with the so-called underground "stoner rock" scene. And yet, their influences span much further than that scene's foundations in '70s hard rock and metal, delving into space rock, psychedelia, and beyond.New Jersey native Dave Wyndorf was already a rock & roll veteran by the time he formed Monster Magnet in 1989, having cut his teeth with little-known punk band Shrapnel (also featuring future punk producer Daniel Rey on guitars) in the late '70s before retiring from music altogether. But, after teaching himself guitar, Wyndorf began assembling Monster Magnet with a handful of fellow New Jersey natives, vocalist Tim Cronin, guitarist John McBain, bassist Joe Callandra, and drummer Jon Kleiman. Fusing their metal, punk, space rock, and psychedelic influences, the band developed a sludgy, feedback-heavy hard rock sound that helped them stand out from the era's burgeoning retro-rock movement -- also counting the Black Crowes, White Zombie, and many others. After releasing a self-titled six-song EP through Germany's Glitterhouse Records, Wyndorf assumed all vocal responsibilities, while Cronin retreated to a behind the scenes "conceptual consultant" position -- much like that of John Sinclair for the MC5.In the meantime, Monster Magnet had signed with independent label Caroline Records in 1992, and recorded their first full-length album: the very impressive, uniquely dark psychedelic masterpiece Spine of God. The productive sessions also yielded a number of extensive space rock jams that would later be issued as the Tab album in 1993. A video for first single "Medicine" and a support tour with the fast-rising Soundgarden also helped attract powerhouse A&M Records, but even as they prepared to sign with the label, Wyndorf had a serious falling-out with guitarist McBain, who was soon replaced by Ed Mundell. Despite the last-minute change, 1993's Superjudge proved to be a stellar major-label debut -- although it did see the band sacrificing some of their rampant feedback in exchange for more clearly defined, muscular metal riffs. Unfortunately, the group's retro-rock image had become highly unfashionable at the time, arriving at the height of the post-Nirvana alternative boom, and the album sold poorly. Under mounting pressure to deliver a more commercial follow-up, Monster Magnet delivered a decidedly sleeker -- though no less space rock-drenched -- effort in 1995's Dopes to Infinity. This yielded a Top Ten rock single in "Negasonic Teenage Warhead" and was supported by extensive touring with C.O.C., among others, but the album sold only slightly better than its predecessor.Finding himself mentally and physically exhausted in the aftermath, Wyndorf exiled himself to Las Vegas to begin composing the tracks that would shape 1998's breakthrough release, Powertrip. By far the group's most straightforward hard rock album, Powertrip channeled all of Sin City's vice, greed, and sex into its hedonistic but surprisingly accessible tracks, and first single "Space Lord" went on to dominate rock radio that summer, driving the album over the gold sales plateau. With new rhythm guitarist Phil Caivano in tow, Monster Magnet then embarked on a marathon two-year world tour, both as a headliner and as support to the likes of Aerosmith, Metallica, and Megadeth. By the year 2000, the band had contributed the track "Silver Future" to the Heavy Metal 2000 soundtrack and completed work on their fifth album, God Says No, released in Europe in October. But their new American record label, Interscope (which had swallowed A&M in a hostile takeover the year before) inexplicably fussed and messed with the album before finally releasing it domestically in April 2001. Precious momentum and sales were therefore lost to an influx of import copies of God Says No -- according to most seasoned fans, already a "difficult," overtly commercial album to begin with -- and Monster Magnet soon found themselves rudely dropped.Following this unforeseen setback, Wyndorf watched as various bandmembers pursued side projects. Ed Mundell recorded a number of well-received albums with his power trio the Atomic Bitchwax, while Tim Cronin and Jon Kleiman collaborated on the Ribeye Brothers and Gallery of Mites. But, Monster Magnet duly reunited for a short North American tour in early 2002 and, a year later, a new deal with the German SPV label was announced. Recorded in late 2003, the group's sixth full-length album, 2004's Monolithic Baby!, would be recorded with a new rhythm section, these being bassist Jim Baglino and drummer Bob Pantella. In 2005, Phil Caivano left the band amicably, and the rest of the group started recording in L.A. with producer Matt Hyde. Reissues of Tab and Spine of God were released in the meantime, along with a 20th Century Masters -- Millennium Collection disc of their greatest hits. In November 2007, after a European tour, 4-Way Diablo was released. Eduardo Rivadavia, All Music Guide

Album:

With their 11th studio album, Monster Magnet brings the fire with ‘Mindfucker’, my first quick listen tells me it’s an instant MM Classic. Gritty New Jersey native Dave Wyndorf, brings his 70s-influenced stoner rock across the Holland Tunnel from New Jersey, to blend with the old-school sound of the NYC underground punk days of years past. More of a MC5/Stooges then straight Stoner rock. This album is what Monster Magnet Fans have been waiting for. Hearing about how Dave wanted to create a “Fight Music” Feel to this record you can differently feel the punches. When getting to the point of writing the lyrics, he did that last and it also happened around the time of the President’s election. With all the “Fake News” and all the media drama ‘Mindfucker’ seems to be an appropriate title for this album in these times.This album kicks into high gear right off the hop with instant classic “Rocket Freak” which brings in a full range of Monster Magnet’s classic sounds and leads to the forefront. Also, I can’t get this image of Iggy Pop screaming and stomping around to this one outta my mind. Must be a Mindfuck. Another track to throw you off a cliff is “Soul”; this power riff laden jam has fierce build up and slick little lick fills wrapped all around Dave’s very motivating and energetic lyrics. Blasting into the title track off this album “Mindfucker” it’s my favorite track and I swear has the best lyrics with lines like “Teasin’ the worm with your nuclear churn, the girl with cyclopean eye” and “Soul crushin’ love child, deep inside of my brain You’re a mindfucker baby, beautiful and insane”. Dave is a lyrical Genius, and with that always depicts a wonderful story you can follow as you listen along.Stripped down and feeling Primordial “I’m God “rocks you into a classic guitar trance that only Monster Magnet can.” Drowning “pulls you deep into the space highway. This track has this fused cosmic blues melody, and matching lyrics that just melts you into where ever you are. After the meltdown, we take a stand for a punk revolution with “Ejection” this fast paced, foot stomper, all punk rockers would be proud to call their own. Solo at the end is a waling ringer with smooth tones and finger bleeding speeds. At this point it’s perfect to ask if we all “Want some “? This track the minute I hear the classic tambourine start I know we are taking a trip in a galaxy space cruiser looking for some action. Can never get enough of Dave’s lyrical mastering.“Brainwash” says it like it is, and takes on this devil style folk rockabilly jam. The godfathers of stoner rock pulled out Detroit style grizzle for this album. “All Day Midnight” is a great song that showcases what is so right with music these days. I’m so happy that I can go out in 2018 and by an album that has the feel of the 70s-punk rock scene still, hope is not lost yet. The final cut on the album is “When the Hammer comes Down” this almost six-minute stunner hits you from all sides just as you’re getting up. Pulling all its raw energy into a perfect super nova, the hammer will come down as judgment is coming to get us all.Proto-Punk is alive and spun all throughout this album. Glad to see Monster Magnet stay true to who they are as well as letting the punk bleed through on this one, fists in the air for this album. Keep your eyes and ears open stoner freaks and sludge’s as the new album “Mindfucker” drops March.23 via Napalm.
