Unspoiled Monsters is the seventh album by the Danish alternative rock act Sort Sol and the fifth after the renaming of the band from the earlier Sods. It is the first without the original member Peter Peter, as he left the band before pre-production of the album. The album is a departure from Sort Sol's earlier albums, being less aggressive and much more experimental, incorporating programmed beats and greater number of keyboards. The songs are less melodic and more based on atmosphere.

A 'first-run' limited edition of 'Unspoiled Monsters' was released and it was the first ever music CD released in Europe, containing an interactive multimedia presentation.The limited edition presentation contained a series of videos - one from a photo shoot in Poland and one personal presentation of each member, shot by the members themselves.
