Monument, released in 1983, is the soundtrack to the live video of the British band Ultravox from their 1983 Monument tour, recorded at the Hammersmith Odeon. The re-issued CD is expanded, containing all of the songs from the video (but still not the entire concert). The generally most appreciated performances are "Reap The Wild Wind", "The Voice" & "Vienna".

The opening title track is not live and is identical to the version found on the b-side of the Hymn single.
