"Monsoon" is the fifth album by alternative rock band Caroline's Spine, and their first album on a major record label. It featured almost entirely songs that can be found on their previous independent releases, but were re-recorded or remastered for this album. The single "Sullivan" climbed to #23 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock chart, as well as #14 on R&R’s Active Rock Chart. The success of this album also earned them a gig playing on board the United States Navy aircraft carrier USS "Enterprise".
