In late December 2017, Dave Wyndorf, Monster Magnet's iconic mastermind, stated that sound of the forthcoming studio album, Mindfucker, will be "full-ahead Detroit-style, early 70s, MC5 and Stooges type of rock". And he delivered exactly what he promised.

Mindfucker will be released on March 23rd, and can be pre-ordered here. The album track "Ejection" is available for streaming below.

“Mindfucker is a fuzzed out, headbangin’ celebration of hard rock and 21st century paranoia” says Dave. “Ten fuel injected, nitro burning tracks of fiery rock ’n roll and garage psych madness, all done Monster Magnet style. It’s also an album that gets right to the point: the world is out of it’s fucking mind and I’m livin’ it….for better or worse. It’s simple, really. In these crazy times I’ve been wanting to just drive my car at 100 miles per hour and howl, you know what I mean? So I wrote songs I can do that with. And with lyrics that don’t deny the times we’re living in. Feels good, feels right. Rock is alive, baby!”
