Red Bank, Philadelphia NJ, United States (1989 – present)

Monster Magnet is an American stoner metal/stoner rock band, often cited as one of the most successful and influential in the genre. Hailing from Red Bank, New Jersey, the group was founded by Dave Wyndorf (vocals and guitar), John McBain (guitar), Tom Diello (drums), and Tim Cronin (vocals and bass). The band first went under the name “Dog of Mystery” and later “Airport 75”, before finally settling on “Monster Magnet”.

In 1989, Monster Magnet released two demo cassettes; “Forget About Life, I’m High on Dope” and “I’m Stoned, What Ya Gonna Do About It?”. The band’s first ‘official’ release was a self-titled EP from Glitterhouse Records of Germany. In 1991 the band signed with Caroline Records and released their first full length album, the cult classic Spine of God, in 1991. The next release was a bizarre 4 song EP titled Tab which included, among two other marathon length songs, a 32 minute track called “Tab…”. McBain was fired soon after, due to personality conflicts between himself and Dave Wyndorf. He was replaced by Atomic Bitchwax guitarist Ed Mundell; who holds the position to this day.

The year 1993 saw the release of the album Superjudge. While the album was released on major record label (A&M Records) and is considered a cult favorite among fans of the band’s earlier work, the album did not sell very well.
