Monster Magnet announce 2014 Australian tour
Psychedelic space rock fan rejoice! 2014 will see Australian return of New Jersey stoner lords Monster Magnet!
Administered by high priest and founder Dave Wyndorf, Monster Magnet have spent the last quarter of a century free-pouring a righteous mix of mind-bending 60’s sound, heavy drug ‘n’ fuzz 70’s riffage and lashings of infinite psychedelic space rock. Across nine albums including the classics Superjudge, Spine of God, Dopes To Infinity, and their most recent release Last Patrol, Monster Magnet have turned on a legion of fans across the globe. In 2014 Monster Magnet will return to blow minds across Australia, bringing their biggest hits - and for the first time, live cuts from their latest album, Last Patrol!
Of the band’s latest release Wyndorf relates: “Last Patrol is a return to our roots in terms of vibe and recording style. It’s full-on psychedelic space-rock with a 60’s garage feel, recorded almost exclusively with vintage guitars, amps and effects in our hometown of Red Bank, NJ. The songs are a kind of Space-Noir, tales of cosmic revenge, peaking libidos, alienation and epic strangeness. It’s a weird trip through the back alleys of a dark, retro-future, which not by coincidence very much resembles my own life”.
