Monster Magnet is an American rock band that was formed in 1989 in Red Bank, NJ, United States. The band's current lineup includes Dave Wyndorf on vocals, guitar, and keyboards since 1989, Phil Caivano on guitar since 1998 (with a break from 2005-2008), Bob Pantella on drums since 2004, Garrett Sweeny on guitar since 2010, and Alec Morton on bass since 2020.

Throughout their career, Monster Magnet has seen various changes in their lineup. Some notable past members include Tim Cronin on vocals from 1989-1993, John McBain on guitar from 1989-1992, Joe Calandra on bass from 1989-2003, Jon Kleiman on drums from 1989-2003, Ed Mundell on guitar from 1992-2010, Jim Baglino on bass from 2003-2013, Michael Wildwood on drums in the year of his departure (2004), and Chris Kosnik as the bassist from 2014 to2020.

With over three decades of experience and numerous albums under their belt such as "Powertrip" and "Dopes to Infinity," Monster Magnet continues to captivate audiences with their unique blend of rock music. Their distinctive sound combined with powerful performances have solidified them as one of the most influential bands in the genre.</p

dave wyndorf, legendary monster magnet frontman, established himself as a driving force in the rock scene no later than with the mega hit "space lord". the band's 8th album, "mastermind", impressively continues the tradition of delivering larger-than-life riffs and killer grooves. some of the best examples of this inclination are its first two tracks, "hallucination bomb" and "bored with sorcery", which also loudly declare that regardless of dave wyndorf's recent personal difficulties, he has not forgotten how to sing. such an authentic and sweeping vocal achievement is rare in this day and age. the track "gods and punks" is the ultimate rock song, and will certainly find a revered place in the annals of guitar rock history to serve as a blueprint for future generations. "mastermind" was produced by matt hyde (staind, slayer, hatebreed), who provides the final mix with the most resounding and clear blast of power ever to escape from a set of loudspeakers.
