"Eaten by the Monster of Love" comes from Angst in My Pants, the 11th studio album by Sparks, the American pop and rock duo of Ron and Russell Mael, released by Atlantic in 1982. The two wrote it together, Russell sings it and Ron plays keyboards, with the backing band now on its second Sparks album: Bob Haag on guitar, Leslie Bohem on bass and David Kendrick on drums. James Goodwin adds synthesizer, on an album where his parts sit well down in the mix so the band can crowd the front.
Mack produced and engineered, working in association with Giorgio Moroder Enterprises, and the power pop record was cut at Musicland Studios in Munich, West Germany. It was the second and last time Sparks worked with him.
