Monster Magnet will go down in music history as retro rock visionaries. Fusing their metal, punk, space rock, and psychedelic influences, the band developed a sludgy, feedback-heavy hard rock sound indulging their sex and drug-fueled fantasies. They become one of the most successful and influential bands of the era’s burgeoning rock movement.
Not since Blue Oyster Cult’s heyday had heavy rock seen a combination of brains, brawn, and humor quite like that orchestrated by Monster Magnet’s Dave Wyndorf. With the 1995 breakthrough release of ‘Dopes to Infinity’ featuring ‘Negasonic Teenage Warhead’ they had created a shag carpeted soundtrack for the world that was “rawk: sexy, dark, melodic, celebratory and, above all, huge.” – Rolling Stone
With each of their albums wallowing in excess it was Monster Magnet’s fourth effort, ‘Powertrip’ that catapulted the band in to the stratosphere. The psychedelic, experimental ‘Space Lord’ became a massive worldwide hit mixing power riffs with Seattle-sounding melancholy and pure metal aggression.
Touring Australia for the first time in over 10 years, Dave Wyndorf promises fans one thing… “You’ll swim in the sweat of a million orgies”
