Mondo generator cocaine rodeo full album


Cocaine Rodeo is the debut studio album by American rock band Mondo Generator, released on Southern Lord Records in 2000. It was compiled of material recorded by vocalist/bassist Nick Oliveri with Rob Oswald of Karma to Burn (drums), vocalist and guitarist Brent Malkus, and his ex-Kyuss bandmates. Recorded in 1997, the material was shelved for three years due to Oliveri's full-time commitment to Queens Of The Stone Age. Several of the songs were performed live by Queens Of The Stone Age, building up hype before the eventual release of the album.

Contents

Three of the album's ten tracks ("13th Floor", "Simple Exploding Man", & "Cocaine Rodeo") feature former members of Kyuss, Josh Homme, Brant Bjork, and Oliveri. This impromptu Kyuss reunion was made possible by Oliveri, who invited each member separately to the studio without any knowledge of who they were playing with. "Simple Exploding Man" features all four original Kyuss members, including vocalist John Garcia, and longtime Kyuss producer Chris Goss.

The American and European album versions feature 2 different bonus tracks.

In 2009, Cocaine Rodeo was re-issued with a bonus disk featuring live material collected from the 2003/2004 tour.
