* {{Bowdlerize}}: "Space Lord" was hit with a case of preemptive bowdlerization, changing "Space Lord motherfucker" to "Space Lord, mother mother". May count as TropesAreNotBad since Space Lord went on to be Monster Magnet's biggest hit. The Intergalactic 7 Remix used the original phrasing however, as do most remixes. Also, the line about "I drink from your tit I sing the blues every day" is often censored to "I drink from your ''tin'' I sing the blues every day."

record the theme song of WWE superstar MattHardy. In 2004, the new lineup released Monolithic Baby! on SPV and had another (minor) hit with "Unbroken (Hotel Baby)". In 2005, Caivano left amicably. This was followed by Wyndorf's near-death in 2006 due to a prescription drug overdose. Thankfully, he got over it.

Monster Magnet are a seminal Stoner Rock/ [[DoomMetal Stoner Metal]] band (technically slightly different things, but Monster Magnet count as both), second only to {{Music/Kyuss}} and Sleep in terms of influence on the genre. They're also one of the most commercially successful and popular of Stoner bands (only QueensOfTheStoneAge are more successful and well-known).

Tropes that apply to Monster Magnet:
* FaceOfTheBand: Dave Wyndorf, full stop. Writes most of the lyrics, sings and plays guitar. Probly the only member even most fans can name, with the exception of a few very hardcore sorts.
* IAmTheBand: The Magnet is Wyndorf's baby, for sure.
* [[DoomMetal Stoner Metal]]
* TropeCodifier: Arguably a somewhat underacknowledged one for Stoner metal/Stoner Rock.
* WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs: In spite of the lyrics and overall druggy feel, Dave's gone on record saying that drugs are neither a inspiration nor a gateway to creativity. Don't believe it? The interview's here: {{http://www.blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=80651 1}}
* WordSaladLyrics: To be expected from a band who writes vaguely-druggy songs...
