Formed during New Order's mid-90s hiatus, UK duo Monaco saw bassist Peter Hook and David Potts push Hook's signature bass-driven sound into unabashed pop territory. This expanded reissue revisits their 1997 debut, which hit number eleven on the UK charts and features the single 'What Do You Want From Me?'-a track so reminiscent of New Order it was frequently mistaken for one. Elsewhere, 'Shine' and 'Sweet Lips' channel jangly optimism through punchy synths and glam-flecked choruses, while deeper cuts like 'Blue' and 'Sedona' explore moodier, more textured arrangements. The bonus material includes previously unreleased tracks and two extended remixes of 'Sweet Lips': a warm, dubbed-out version from Farley & Heller and a disco-fuelled slice from Joey Negro. Hook's presence remains unmistakable, grounding even the most saccharine melodies with his driving low-end. What emerges is a curiously compelling time capsule of 90s alt-pop euphoria, full of hooks, heart and heavy basslines.
