Mondo Generator was formed in 1997 by former Queens Of The Stone Age and Kyuss bassist Nick Oliveri. Initially intended as a solo/side project, the classic »Cocaine Rodeo« album was recorded that same year, but shelved until the Southern Lord label released it and its unique brand of criminal insanity to widespread acclaim and horror in the summer of 2000. Following several full-lengths, EPs and a live DVD, a solo acoustic career and heavy touring schedules with Kyuss Lives!, Vista Chino and Mondo Generator, Nick Oliveri signed to Italian powerhouse Heavy Psych Sounds for the release of a series of Oliveri vocal-fronted recordings titled »N.O. Hits At All« as well as the »The Best Of Nick Oliveri’s Mondo Generator«.
While the band’s lineup has seen contributions from notable members of the Californian rock scene such as Josh Homme, Dave Catching, Brant Bjork, Dave Grohl or Joey Castillo, the Mondo Generator stabilizes in 2018 around Nick Oliveri on bass and vocals, Mike Pygmie on guitar and Mike Amster on drums. In 2020, the band releases their first album in eight years, »Fuck It«, on Heavy Psych Sounds and haven’t stopped touring Europe and North America since then. Get ready for their next sonic misdemeanor…
