Tab (a.k.a. Tab 25 or 25 Tab) is the title of Monster Magnet's second EP, released in 1992. Though long enough to qualify as a full-length album, it is referred to as an EP. It is generally viewed by critics as the band's most psychedelic release, with the first two tracks alone tracks totaling 45 minutes. The cover bears the text "MONSTERMAGNET 25............tab"; however, the band's website refers to it as "TAB".[1]
