Mastermind
Mastermind is the eighth studio album by American psychedelic and stoner rock band Monster Magnet, released on 25 October 2010 through Napalm Records. It followed 4-Way Diablo from 2007 and arrived with a video for the first single, "Gods and Punks", which appeared on 1 October.
It is a record of changes in the band's line-up. Guitarist Phil Caivano returned after four years away, while lead guitarist Ed Mundell and bassist Jim Baglino made their last appearance on a Monster Magnet album. The record also brought the band back onto the Billboard 200, where it entered at No. 165, their first appearance there since God Says No. A good one for fans curious about the group at a turning point in their story.
