Monster Magnet
25 Tab
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

2017 Three Song Mini LP Housed In A Heavy Gatefold Cover With Shrink Wrap Intact. “Originally Released On Glitterhouse In Europe In 1991 But Only Seeing An American Issue Two Years Later As Caroline Took Advantage Of The Band's Newfound Major-Label Status, Tab...25 For Many Remains The High Point Of Monster Magnet As Extreme Downer Psych/Space Rock. For Good Reason As Well, Thanks To The Over Half-Hour-Long Title Track That Takes Up The Bulk Of The Space On The Disc. Finding A Perfectly Steady Head-Nodder Of A Groove That Wouldn't Sound Out Of Place At All On A Loop Album, Say, And With Extremely Strung-Out Guitar Soloing Madness To Boot, "Tab...25" Sounds Exactly Like The Nightmarish Orange-Eye Image On The Back Cover Looks: Weird, Alien, And Not Quite In Control Of Itself. Dave Wyndorf's Singing Consists Mostly Of The Occasional Wordless Wail And Slurred Vocal, Often Treated With As Much Delay And Flanging As The Guitars Themselves, Though His One Spoken-Word Break, However Slightly Inaudible, Provides A Bit Of A Rock To Cling To Amid The Slow-Grind Chaos. Even More Feedback And Noise Gets Added As It Goes, And While For Some Listeners Patience Will Be Tested, As A Massive Epic It Just Can't Be Beaten..”. AMG - Ned Raggett.
