Monster Magnet - Milking the Stars: A Re-Imagining of Last Patrol

[The Shocker]

Now this is more like it.  Much more of a spacerock vibe.  I really need to listen to both albums back to back to see how different the re-done songs are.

I need to get this, it is pertinent to my interests...

They are one of the few bands I'll get every album they put out, but this one is not a disappointment.

Shit yeah, I buy everything they put out as well, and I'm fucking loving this.  Need some more time with it, though this is definitely really out there/spacey/trippy.

Something with Monster Magnet never really clicks with me. I keep trying though.

It took me being stoned and listening to Superjudge.  I worked backwards after that.  I need this Milking the Stars as I liked Last Patrol and if this makes it spacier than that sounds cool.

Kind of a neat idea for a band that's done a lot too.

   Always liked their name. It may sound absurd, but in my experience most bands with cool names play cool music (to a greater or lesser degree).
    Libertycaps suggested they were strongly influenced/inspired by Steppenwolf. Judging from their name, some of their album/promotional artwork, and their music, there seems to be little doubt that he was correct...

        In any case, I do like their music.

     As for their name, we also have this:
