Steppenwolf is best known primarily for its party-hearty rock & roll anthems. But with 1969's MONSTER, the band's fourth release, Steppenwolf showed a political side. While the album didn't contain any radio-ready top-40 hits, the album as a whole remains an impressive accomplishment.

John Kay and company voice their opinions on the then-raging Vietnam War and the dark side of the judicial system and politics. "Monster/Suicide/America," a nearly ten-minute album-opening epic, is a good example of this new direction, as is the self-explanatory "Draft Resister."

Monster shows Steppenwolf trying to conquer the FM market the same way they had dominated the AM market, only instead of short rockin' hits, they began here to lengthen the tracks and inject social and political content into the music. Thus we have such tunes as "Draft Resister," "America," and "Fag." The title track was a hit in an edited version while "Power Play" became a staple of their concerts. This was the last studio album put together by the original five members. Better than average. ~ James Chrispell, All Music Guide

5 stars it's a monster
Steppenwolf is one of the very best rock and roll bands-period-but I think they have been overlooked for many years. If you like the songs that you hear on the radio (the 3 minute versions of them anyway)then you have to take the time to listen to the full version of MONSTER. Listen to every word-it still fits. Too bad no one makes music like this anymore. This album is guitar and lyric heaven.

5 stars A somewhat obscure classic
This CD is timeless. A great dipiction of Steppenwolf's verstility. Somehow, I suspect too many missed it. The only thing missing is the complete printed lyrics inside the cover as the original album had. Fortunately the words to "Monster" are within but it would be worth the time to gather all the lyrics from the net. Lead singer/writer John Kay was masterful in his time.

5 stars Power to the People, Baby
Now were talking. Monster is a great album, just as valid today as it was 20-30 years ago. Too bad none of those stoned out hippies listened to the words. This album makes you want to start a revolution. Really pisses you off about the Feds and the christian conquerers.

5 stars Before and After Monster
OK folks, I'll keep this one short. Hearing this album that sunny summer in New Jersey all those many years ago changed my life. I was forever changed by hearing the music and words of Monster. There may very well be "good guys" in this world but, they sure as hell ain't the ones that we were told they were. SS

5 stars One of my First Albums
I got this album when I was 9 years old and 34 years later still love it's power to instill the motto of the day, “question authority”.
