Tab (alternately referred to as MONSTER MAGNET 25............TAB, Tab 25, or 25 Tab) is the second EP by American rock band Monster Magnet, released in 1991. Initially released only in Europe, it was recorded before the band's 1991 debut full-length album Spine of God and was not released in North America until after the group's 1993 album Superjudge became a minor hit.[3] The EP is generally viewed as Monster Magnet's most psychedelic release, with the first two tracks alone totaling almost 45 minutes.
