Monster Magnet’s 35th Anniversary Tour
Celebrating 35 years of innovative rock, Monster Magnet has announced a thrilling UK tour this autumn, promising fans a chance to witness their legendary sound live. Tickets are set to go live on May 10 at 9 AM on myticket.co.uk.
The Legends Return
Led by the charismatic Dave Wyndorf, the original founder and voice behind Monster Magnet, this band from New Jersey burst onto the scene in 1989. Known for their heavy, space-infused sound, the band’s influence by the 1970s metal scene has shaped their unique stoner rock genre, melding elements of garage rock, progressive rock, and psychedelia. Their music not only rocks hard but also brings wit and intelligence to their lyrics, a signature that has captivated fans worldwide.
A Legacy of Hits
With over a dozen studio albums, Monster Magnet truly broke through with their 1998 release, ‘Powertrip’, which quickly went gold and garnered album of the year honors from both Kerrang and Metal Hammer. This album marked a pivotal moment, catapulting them into the rock elite.
Dave Wyndorf Speaks
Dave Wyndorf, the band’s frontman, shares his excitement for the tour, stating:
“Hot damn! 35 years and it feels gooood! Of course, this celebration will not be spent by us hanging around our homes huddled over some cake with too many candles on it. We gotta get on that bus and blow out some serious noise in multiple locations! It’s called a tour. The Monster Magnet 35th anniversary European Tour to be exact. Brothers and sisters, you are more than welcome to be part of that noise! We can’t wait to see you!”
