Missed the support band, which i usually hate to do, so can't comment on them, but Monster Magnet were magnificent again. The second time of seeing them, and they jsut dominate every venue they play. their noise fills the place. They played the entirety of Spine of God, and then game back for the longest encore. It could have been two gigs.

It was a great concert! Spine of God live was an amazing experience.
My sleeping Karma was awesome, too (as always), but only half an hour is much too short. I don't understand, why they couldn't play for an hour or so. I had the impression that most people very much enjoyed their music. The whole concert was done before 10 pm. Maybe this is just different from Germany where concerts usually finish later. Why not setting curfew to 11 and let the Karma 30 more minutes to play and even Monster Magnet would have had time for some more of their hits (they have plenty of great songs anyway).
Electric Ballroom is a perfect location for concerts like this one. The sound was pretty impressive and really good. If the Karma would have had more time on stage this would have got a 5 star rating with ease...

The first time that Monster Magnet have hit the north of England in over 4 years following the cancellation of the 2007 tour following Dave Wyndorf's well publicised dabble with prescription drugs. Although looking like the near death experience had taken its toll on his body, the set was amazing. Ed Mundell was his usual self - playing incredible guitar riffs with a minimal amount of fuss and exuberance whilst Dave was awesome - the range in his voice is still there (Zodiac lung at one end of the spectrum, Melt at the other)and as a front man, Wyndorf has the presence he had 20 years ago.
90 minutes of their best songs, just one from 4-way diablo, their latest release, which we all know is their weakest offering meant this set was one for the purist, the enduring fan of the band through the ups and downs of the last 20 years. Opening with Dopes to Infinity, moving seamlessly from Crop Circle into Powertrip (as it does on the album), finishing off with Spine of God with a Don McLean's American Pie touch and still time to fit in Space Lord, Cage around the Sun, Tractor, Radiation day and the aforementioned Zodiac Lung and Melt. Ok, there was no Freak shop Usa, Ozium or 3rd eye landslide but the band have been producing some of the coolest and thrashiest songs of the last 2 decades that we were always going to be wanting more. However, this gig wasn't about what didn't happen, it was about what did happen and that, my friends was truly awesome.

Monster Magnet are like all good things in life, they get better and better with age!!! An amazing set, with some of their all-time classics like 'Dopes to Infinity' and 'Spine of God'. Dave Wyndorf's charisma cannot be matched, he had the audience in the palm of his hand and lead us in the worship of truly brilliant rock 'n roll. A truly memorable event which was also wonderfully finished off with a couple of hours hanging with the band back-stage!!!

I missed the openers Lions, but arrived in time for the surprisingly excellent Karma to Burn who walked on stage and rocked very hard indeed, despite being devoid of traditional elements such as a singer or lyrics! Just great riff after great riff. Also worth of mention was the bassist effortlessly pulling off some of the most extreme lunges in music today and some very worthy drumming.

On to the main event: Monster Magnet took to the stage to the silent "please don't be rubbish" prayers of the audience that accompany any great band's comeback from troubled times. The opening trio of classics 'Dopes to Infinity', 'Crop Circle' and the monstrous 'Power Trip' showed all doubters that Dave Wyndorf and co. are back and still hungry for it...

The rest of the set concentrated on visiting their back catalogue, unearthing a couple of favourites (Negasonic Teenage Warhead and Tractor) and the occasional psychadelic epic (Spine of God) summing up a very fine evenings Stoner Rock. Several of the crowd, this reviewer included would have preferred a couple more singalong barnstormers like Heads Explode or Bummer in place of the trippy stuff, but the ageing hardcore fans seemed very happy indeed.

Brilliant gig Monster Magnet rock and it was good to see them back in this country probably one of the best gigs I've been to this year. The only downside was it was in Manchester Academy 2 and the view of the stage in there is always a bit restricted if you get a few tall people in there.

Unbridled awesomeness from the guys from New Jersey. No album to promote, so it was 1hr 50mins of classic chunky riffage and no real chat. How this band are not massive is a mystery.

Monster Magnet played an explosive set that lit up an otherwise dark and dreary December night. The atmosphere was incredible and Dave Wyndorf's new found girth has had no effect on his stunning voice or electric stage presence as he held the audience in the palm of his hand through such favorites as Space Lord, Powertrip and Melt. The band work together like a well oiled machine and remain one of the best and most exciting live bands around.
