I've added a table of their albums, But I don't know how to upload pictures. Can somebody help inserting pictures of their albums.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.148.168.43 (talk • contribs)

Name origins[edit]

Is the name taken from a frank zappa song 'return of the son of monster magnet' (really obscure)? its possible. is it verifiable? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.107.203.251 (talk) 23:58, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dave Wyndorf has stated in an interview that the band is named after the toy, and the Zappa song is a coincidence.--GuySperanza (talk) 18:11, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

News since Wyndorf OD[edit]

What happened to these guys? I haven't heard anything since the OD.. wasn't the album already finished? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.86.207.138 (talk • contribs)

The album was supposed to have been finished, and the tour that was cancelled was promoting it. I haven't heard any news at all since the OD, and it's coming up to a year soon. The outlook is bleak. Has anyone heard any news at all though? FredTheDeadHead 20:06, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently Dave's re-started work on the album. Glad to hear he's back. http://www.roadrun.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=69992

Influences[edit]

Black Sabbath aren't mentioned here. I'm sure I hear alot of Tony Iommi in Dave's riffs. anyone know for sure?

I hear a lot of Black Sabbath in a lot more than Dave's riffs. He has stated that Hawkwind and Black Sabbath are the two main influences. There's a statement about a possible Iron Butterfly influence. I hear that as more of a Doors influence. Uncoincidentally, Iron Butterfly were strongly influenced by The Doors. Any opposition to changing that?--GuySperanza (talk) 18:15, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Trivia Section[edit]

Song usage info should go into pages for individual albums. Since Trivia Sections are discouraged, a title like "Song usage" would be better. I'll get started on this after a standardized section heading is agreed upon in Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Albums — edgarde 21:44, 1 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lord of Light[edit]

If you crossreference the lyrics of Lord of light and Dopes to infinity, I can't find any lyrics borrowed from Lord of Light, can you? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 85.145.53.183 (talk) 14:49, 26 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

New site location?[edit]

Can someone please verify that it's changed and not just temporarily down?JWhiteheadcc (talk) 03:00, 20 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Children of the Atom[edit]

The influences section mentions that "All Shook Out" has the phrase "Children Of The Atom", which refers to the X-Men. There is also a 1953 Sci Fi novel called Children Of The Atom (which may have inspired the X-Men originally) that could also be the inspiration for that lyric. Unless there's a citation indicating which the lyric refers to, I suggest changing it to read;

""All Shook Out" from God Says No has a reference to "Children of the Atom" which may be a reference to X-Men, also from Marvel Comics."68.41.191.158 (talk) 06:48, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone please change the album cover picture on the Powertrip album page? The picture being used is of very bad image quality. 86.45.47.195 (talk) 17:58, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
