Monster Truck Mondays, produced and recorded by Matt Schultz & Stu Patterson, saw the band lean further into social advocacy, exploring themes of anxiety, existential dread, capitalism, LGBTQIA+ rights and colonialism over snarling bass, frenzied guitar work, restless percussion and electric clarinet.
