Discography

Notes: Most of the earlier singles have been deleted and are available as parts of compilations.
  The red numbers in brackets refer to later repackagings.
  Not listed here are: compilations where Monochrome Set songs form only part of the whole; pirate releases; cover versions of Monochrome Set songs; recordings by other artistes that the members of The Monochrome Set have either played on, produced, or otherwise been involved in- these latter are covered in the "Other" section.
  The exception to the above are the three singles, "The Gulp" (solo, Lester Square) "Reach For Your Gun" (solo, Bid), and "Whoops! What A Palava", because they are included on later versions of "Volume, Contrast, Brilliance". These are listed in blue.
