Cocaine Rodeo is the debut studio album by American rock band Mondo Generator, released through Southern Lord Records on 18 July 2000.
It was compiled of material recorded by vocalist/bassist Nick Oliveri with drummer Rob Oswald, vocalist/guitarist Brent Malkus, and his ex-Kyuss bandmates Josh Homme, Brant Bjork and John Garcia.
Recorded in 1997, the material was shelved for three years due to disinterest from the band to release it and Oliveri's full-time commitment to Queens of the Stone Age.
The album was shelved after the recording sessions due to the band not wanting to release it and Oliveri's commitment to Queens of the Stone Age.
In the time leading up to its release and after, Queens of the Stone Age would perform"13th Floor", renamed to "Tension Head", and "Simple Exploding Man" live.
