The album features three cover songs – "There's No Way Out of Here" by Ken Baker. The song was originally recorded by Baker's English country rock band Unicorn[6][7] released in 1976 on their album Too Many Crooks (US title Unicorn 2). David Gilmour also recorded a version on his solo debut album. "The Right Stuff" by Robert Calvert is from his 1974 concept album, Captain Lockheed and the Starfighters, and Velvet Underground's "Venus in Furs", the latter being available on the US edition of the album only.
The song "Master of Light" was written especially for the movie "Torque" (2004) where the band appears performing it in the nightclub, but the version heard in the movie is a remix with a greater presence of electronic touches.
Monolithic Baby! reached No. 13 in the German Charts.[8]
