Mondo Generator (USA)
Mondo Generator, formed in 1997 by Nick Oliveri of Queens of the Stone Age, unleashed their brand of criminal insanity with the classic “Cocaine Rodeo” in 2000. Transitioning from a solo project to a full band, they’ve traversed Stoner/Psych sounds to Heavy Psychedelic Progressive, earning acclaim with albums like “A Drug Problem That Never Existed” and “Shooter’s Bible”. After a hiatus during Oliveri’s Kyuss reunion, they returned in 2012 with “Hell Comes To Your Heart” and are now back with a new lineup, album “Fuck It” and a reissue spree through Heavy Psych Sounds. Amidst the stoner rock landscape, Mondo Generator’s thunderous return promises a renewed assault on the senses.
