The DeBaser review (Caspasian) describes Monitor as from the San Fernando Valley and refers to the self-titled record in 1981; the review also notes a Meat Puppets appearance on the penultimate track.

Caspasian's DeBaser review praises Monitor's 1981 self-titled record for its unsettling synth-led post-punk experiments and dark, playful textures. The review highlights themes of temptation, alienation and mischievous sonics, and notes a Meat Puppets appearance on the penultimate track. Strong recommendation (5/5).

For:Fans of early-80s post-punk and experimental synth music; listeners who enjoy dark, artful albums and detailed, literary reviews.
