The new album, which has been getting solid airplay in the past month with the first single Sweet Mountain River, continues to fill that riff-rock niche that has also worked for another popular Canadian band, The Sheepdogs. We took the time to make sure this album was great because we knew how important it was." "After the unexpected success we had with the EPs and the unexpected Juno win, it's a great set up. "It couldn't be set up any better," says Keily. In July Monster Truck goes across Canada with Alice In Chains.ĭrummer Steve Keily, who like Widerman is a former member of the Hamilton band The Reason, says the timing of the album release has worked out well. with the unlikely pairing of new-metal bands Pop Evil and Sevendust. Last month, Monster Truck won the Juno Award for Breakthrough Group of the Year. High profile tours followed, opening for Deep Purple, Slash, The Sheepdogs and Billy Talent (the band played ball hockey with Billy Talent on the floor of the Bell Centre before a show in Montreal). The successful independent label Dine Alone (Alexisonfire, City And Colour, Arkells) signed Monster Truck. Songs like Seven Seas Blues and Righteous Smoke became rock radio favourites. The band's unabashed dedication to the riff rock of a previous generation caught on with young people who grew up listening to their parent's records - Deep Purple, Thin Lizzy, Metallica, Lynryd Skynrd, Allman Brothers and Led Zeppelin.

Over the past two years - on the basis of eight songs issued on two free EPs - Monster Truck has risen to the top of the Canadian rock heap. Normally, the release of a debut album wouldn't be such a big deal.
Rough and raw, like the blast furnaces that belch out smoke and flame a few blocks away.

Furiosity's 12 songs (plus a bonus track if you buy it on vinyl or download it off iTunes) have soaked up the essence of the neighbourhood. "But much of the writing and all the refining, pre-production and arranging happened in this place." "Some of the songs were conceptualized in the old band house before we got evicted," guitarist Jeremy Widerman says as he clears away a pile of food wrappers and moves the couch into a place where three low-watt lamps cast the best light. They share the building with the lot security dogs. It's not the prettiest place in the world, not even close, but it's a fitting setting for a record called Furiosity, and the band members feel comfortable here. More than a dozen broken drum sticks hang from it, magically defying gravity like spitballs from a classroom ceiling. There's an old black couch that looks surprisingly clean, a mottled desk, some overturned crates and a lot of gear - instruments and amps, big ones. Our photographer is told to bring his own lights. They had just returned from tour and needed some place fast, cheap and, above all, sonically insulated. The four members of Monster Truck decided to rent the building 18 months ago after they were evicted, through no fault of their own, from their previous band house. It can now also be called the birthplace of Furiosity - the debut album from Monster Truck that will be released to stores and on iTunes Tuesday.

In recent years, the old plant has been parceled up and rented out for storage, workshop space and the occasional movie set. It was once an outbuilding for a factory that employed hundreds of workers.
The band resides in a brick bunker of a building that squats at the front of a crumbling industrial lot in Hamilton's gritty North End. Rock 'n' roll lives in the most unusual places, unexpected but somehow fitting.
