Queens Of The Stone Age side project mastery.......2003-01-30

I have been anxious to hear this album since discovering the mastery of QOTSA and upon dowloading the first song, I was slightly disappointed to hear a song from QOTSA's "Rated R". Nonetheless, my curiousity never faltered and I proceeded to seek out this album from Nick Oliveri and co. Much like QOTSA, Mondo Generator is a healthy and balanced blend of vaious styles of rock, not falling directly under the "stoner rock" mantra. It has a very unique blend of more punk rock a' la Black Flag or Bl'ast with some indie rock undertones that remind me of Shellac that is rounded off and solified with a stoner rock vibe. Much like QOTSA, there isn't a disappointing moment to be heard on this recording that should be sought after by those seeking something more than your average radio schlock.

Gonna bang in your face.......2002-02-23

This is heavy aggressive damage and it's gonna bang in your face just like Westwood.

wake me up and get me high!.......2001-06-15

nick oliveri (formerly of kyuss, now of queens of the stone age with buddy josh homme) smokes it up on this album. i mean, he's really tearing it up on the songs (although it sounds as if he may have been stoned during some of the songs). any of you who enjoy space-rock/stoner-rock, or whatever the crap you wanna call it, should enjoy this recording. songs like "shawnette", about a girl with tourette's syndrome and wanting rampant sex, are rumbly anthems to the underground sound. then there's the punkier "i want you to die" (title says it all), reminiscient of hard core punk-rawk. the title track is a hick-country spoof about...duh!...cocaine! there is also a different version of the song "tension head" (also found on queens of the stone age R album). all the songs sound lo-fi, but all of them are amazing. buy it, love it, but don't smoke it.

An Intergalactic rodeo in space.......2000-08-30

Mondo Generator is a stoner band that consist of Ex Kyuss/queens of the stone age members. Cocaine Rodeo is a good release and will not leave stoner fans dissapointed after a couple of listens. Yes this is a stoner record but it is not a laid back psychedelic album. It is furious , hard and even has a touch of punk that makes this album more interesting and avoiding it being another stoner record without a name. Songs are well crafted and band plays like they are trying to demolish stonehenge with a huge wall of sound. Stoner fans shouldnt avoid or overlook this release.
