Career


Mundell is a self-taught guitar player who grew up in New Jersey. A founding member of New Jersey stoner band The Atomic Bitchwax, he later joined Monster Magnet as lead guitarist in 1992.[1] His first recorded appearance with the band was 1993's Superjudge album. In the span of 18 years, he played on seven Monster Magnet albums in total between 1992 and 2010. He left Monster Magnet in 2010 to "collaborate with new producers, songwriters and musicians".[1]

His style is heavily influenced by psychedelic 1970s rock such as Jimi Hendrix and Tommy Bolin.

In 2011, it was announced that Mundell had formed a new project, "The Ultra Electric Mega Galactic" (UEMG). The debut album was released January 2013 with a 2014 follow-up extended EP titled Through the Dark Matter released in conjunction with UEMG's first European tour. A Mundell solo album Space Time Employment Agency, had long been in the making, with a release date in late 2021.

As of mid-2020, Mundell is recording with the band The Freeks, and actively contributes to various recordings and soundtracks as a studio musician in Los Angeles.
