MONSTER MAGNET To Release Mastermind Album In Late October; Details Revealed
August 6, 2010, 14 years ago
Hard rock legends MONSTER MAGNET will release their 8th album, entitled Mastermind, this October via Napalm Records.
Songwriter and frontman Dave Wyndorf describes Mastermind: "It's a big, beefy ball of demented anthems and power rock. The music itself is exaggerated and muscular. Like classic rock gone insane! Giant hooks, giant sounds. The rockers are direct and intense. The ballads, trippy and strange. It's guitar heaven."
And the lyrics? Wyndorf laughs. "Well, the lyrics read like a fever-dream of life in the 21st century. Cynicism, optimism, satire, sex, deluded fantasies and dead-on reality. They're all here – sometimes even in the same song!"
"In my world, images, information and emotions tend to intertwine. I’ll describe the smallest details of my personal life in crazy, cinematic terms. When I write, the words play out in my mind like scenes from a movie and that's the vibe I tried to capture on "Mastermind" – rapid-fire emotion. What can I say? I'm having a weird life and I have to write it down that way.""In the end though," says Dave, "Mastermind ROCKS, and that's what's most important."
Mastermind will feature the following tracklisting;
'Hallucination Bomb'
'Bored With Sorcery'
'Dig That Hole'
'Gods And Punks'
'The Titan Who Cried Like A Baby'

'100 Million Miles'
