Ahead of their upcoming Australian tour Monster Magnet have just named the full line up of local acts who will joining the space rock legends to blow minds across the country this April.

Main support in each city will come from two-piece hell raisers King Of The North.  Since exploding onto the Melbourne music scene in early 2012 this guitar/drum duo have had punters and pundits alike raving about their massive sound and killer live shows.  Pioneering the 3 from 1 guitar technique (making the sound of 2 guitars plus a bass guitar simultaneously from just one guitar), first timers are often left looking for the extra guitarists amidst the wall of sound. Add to the equation one of the most dynamic and solid drummers around and you have a rock n roll band like no other and one of the country’s most exciting new acts.

Along with King of The North, Monster Magnet will also be joined by hard rock punks Chainsaw Hookers in Perth and psych stoners Fort in Brisbane. In Sydney stoner rock disciples Arrowhead will start the proceedings and for a special treat Matt Sonic & The High Times & Don Ferndando will help take the Melbourne event into the stratosphere!

Administered by high priest and founder Dave Wyndorf, Monster Magnet have spent the last quarter of a century free-pouring a righteous mix of mind-bending 60’s sound, heavy drug ‘n’ fuzz 70’s riffage and lashings of infinite psychedelic space rock.  Across nine albums including the classics Superjudge, Spine of God, Dopes To Infinity, and their most recent release Last Patrol, Monster Magnet have turned on a legion of fans across the globe.  In 2014 Monster Magnet will return bringing their biggest hits – and for the first time, live cuts from their latest album, Last Patrol!
