There’s a few things you should know before I start my review of Mondo Generator’s “Dog Food” single. I like my RnR to be dirty, raw, and gnarly most times. I mentioned this in our RIP Derf Scratch article and I’ll mention it again. And at the top of my RnR list you will find “Songs For The Deaf” by Queens of the Stone Age, “Apocalypse Dudes” by Turbonegro, “Blood Guts and Pussy” by The Dwarves and “In Utero” by Nirvana (I realize this one is somewhat out of place but it’s a great album in spite of everything surrouding it). So why am I mentioning these albums? Well for the simple fact that Mondo Generator is comprised of members of these bands. Nick Oliveri (QOTSA), Happy Tom (Turbonegro), Dave Grohl (Nirvana/QOTSA), and Marc Diamond (Dwarves). Videos Does this 7″ live up to all that these guys have done Recent Posts previous? Not really. But it’s hard cause those albums are so intensely good there’s little that stands up to them period.

His latest project, however, finds the California native strapping on an acoustic guitar for his first solo album, Death Acoustic , and a tour that stops at the Hi-Tone Saturday night. But Oliveri, who has always brought a jolt of punk energy -- as well as, frequently, a splash of on-stage nudity -- to whatever endeavor he undertakes, is not turning into a folkie.

  • NO GIGS DOES NOT HAVE to MEAN NO MUSIC. the Ultimate ‘Mixtape’ to Help Get You Through Covid-19 Isolation
    NO GIGS DOES NOT HAVE TO MEAN NO MUSIC. The ultimate ‘mixtape’ to help get you through Covid-19 isolation. We wanted to put something out there to share some love at the moment, to give a bit of an escape to everyone in this absolutely bizarre time that we all find ourselves in. So here it is! A 100% free compilation with just 200+ songs! All the tracks have been donated and used with permission. If you dig a song, please check out the band, ‘Like’ their Facebook page, let them know and share the love with others. Please remember after isolation is done, also support the bands by going and seeing them live! There are songs crossing all sorts of genres including psych, fuzz, stoner, grunge, doom, sludge, punk, hardcore, grind, death, thrash, heavy rock, garage, a few acoustic tracks for good measure, and more. Massive thanx to all the bands involved, as well as a few others that have helped reach out to bands they work with and do amazing things in the industry, including: - Chris Maric (Maric Media) - Warren Gibson (Plug Music Agency / Mongrel Records) 1 | NO GIGS DOES NOT HAVE TO MEAN NO MUSIC - Anthony Blayney (Your Mate Bookings) - Richard S Jones (Sheltered Life PR) - Tim Price (Collision Course) - Dan Williams (Wild Animals Records) - Jeff Byrd (Pig Baby Records) - Désirée Hanssen (Lay Bare Recordings) - Nadia Lloyd (band management) + Mike Foxall (The Art Of Fox - for the ‘No Gigs Does Not Have To Mean No Music’ Album art) and as this turned into such a massive undertaking, anyone I have forgotten, thank you.

    Blistering.com Review: Mondo Generator - Dog Food http://www.blistering.com/fastpage/fpengine.php/link/1/templateid/19524... » Home » Reviews Mondo Generator - Dog Food (Impedance Records) Your E-mail By: Justin Donnelly Friend's E-mail [7/10] Having only released his first genuine solo album a mere six months ago ( Death Acoustic ), Nick Oliveri proves to be the sort of musician that does not stand idle for too long, with his long running outfit Mondo Generator due to release their fourth full-length effort Time To Destroy in the coming months. In the lead up to Time To Destroy , Mondo Generator have put together a new EP entitled Dog Food , with the title track (which is an Iggy Pop cover from his 1980 Soldier album) serving as the group’s first single, of which interestingly enough, also accompanies the promotional trailer for Judd L. Tilyard’s upcoming short movie Frame 137 . Not all that surprising is to find that Oliveri (lead vocals and guitars) has enlisted an all-star cast to help out on Dog Food , with vocalist Michele Madden (Tourettes), lead guitarist The Fresh Prince Of Darkness (The Dwarves), bassist Happy Tom (Turbonegro’s Thomas Seltzer) and drummer Dave Grohl (Nirvana, Foo Fighters, Them Crooked Vultures) fleshing out Oliveri’s new-look Mondo Generator. The song itself, while remaining fairly true to the original, is a perfect fit for Oliveri’s extroverted persona, with his screamed vocals adding a familiar intensity to the band’s rocking soundtrack. Following next are a couple of Oliveri originals (“Smashed Apart” and “This Isn’t Love”), both of which appear in semi-acoustic form.

  • "Death Acoustic" Exploding in Sound

SEARCH BLOG FLAG BLOG SHARE Next Blog» Create Blog | Sign In FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9, 2009 Pitchfork.com Reviews Nick Oliveri's "Death Acoustic" Pitchfork.com have reviewed the new album from Nick Oliveri, "Death Acoustic," giving it a rating of 3.5 out of 10... [pitchfork.com] Before getting booted from riff monsters Queens of the Stone Age in 2004, following their breakout Songs for the Deaf, the goateed, often-nude Nick Oliveri was one half of the group's core duo-- alongside frontman Josh Homme, an anchor at the center of a rotating cast of contributors. Oliveri served as the band's sparkplug, counterbalancing Homme's melodic falsetto with his screeching hardcore vocals and adding a degree of batshit craziness to songs like "Tension Head" and "Quick and to the Pointless". Oliveri's absence would take its toll on Queens-- they haven't reached the same heights without him on subsequent records Lullabies to Paralyze and Era Vulgaris. Since that time, Oliveri has played in a slew of bands including the Dwarves and L.A. hard-rock outfit the Knives and continued work on his long-running punk-metal project Mondo Generator , but has remained mostly out of the spotlight by comparison to his ex-bandmembers. (Even lesser known guitarist Dean Fertita has gone on to work with Jack White in the Dead Weather.) Now comes Death Acoustic-- as its title implies, a stripped-down solo album-- featuring a straightforward combination of Oliveri's gutter-punk howl and acoustic-guitar strumming.
