Description
Monster Magnet – “Test Patterns: Vol. 1 ” LP
This 12″ collects together the fabled Tab recordings in two different forms – with a 2021 remixed version by original Monster Magnet guitarist John McBain; alongside the original 1988 demo version of the track (originally released on the demo tape, Forget About Life, I’m High On Dope, in 1989). The Stooges and Hawkwind being terrorised by the Butthole Surfers, this is pre-major label Monster Magnet from the early years, a droning, sprawling, psychedelic mass of riffs, feedback and acid-soaked grooves.
“Two big ones, indeed, to soak up, savour and submerge yourself in. (If you’re that kind of person).” – The Quiteus
