Led by the successful single "What's the Frequency, Kenneth?", "Monster" debuted at number one in the United States and at least seven other countries, and received generally positive reviews. Four more singles were released from the album, including the UK top-20 hits "Bang and Blame", "Strange Currencies", and "Tongue". That year, the band promoted the album with their first concert tour since 1989; although the tour was commercially successful, band members suffered several health problems. At the 37th Annual Grammy Awards, "Monster" was nominated for Best Rock Album, but lost to The Rolling Stones' "Voodoo Lounge". The album's follow-up "New Adventures in Hi-Fi" (1996) was primarily recorded during the tour.
