Neveroddoreven (sometimes stylised as NeveroddoreveN) is the second studio album by English electronic music duo I Monster. It was originally released on 21 July 2003 by Instant Karma sublabel Dharma Records during "a period of transition for the band's label".[2] It was recorded in the home studio of band member Dean Honer. The title is a palindrome.
"The Blue Wrath" was used in the opening of the 2004 British comedy Shaun of the Dead and appeared on the movie's soundtrack.[3] The I Monster version of "Daydream in Blue" was used as theme music for the 2002 French action movie Steal and appeared in a television commercial for the Ford Focus ST in 2005. The song was also used in the 2016 episode "eps2.0_unm4sk-pt1.tc" in season 2 of Mr. Robot, and the 2022 episode "Half Loop" in season 1 of Severance. In his review of the album for Jockey Slut, Ben Mortimer said that it contained "playful, twisted pop tunes."[4]

NeveroddoreveN: Remodeled
The album was re-released in 2004 by Instant Karma with different album artwork and a revised track list appealing to the label's perception of popular demand.[6] While the word Remodeled does not officially appear on the album, it is often used to help distinguish it from the original. "Hey Mrs." was replaced with a remix that gained popularity through use in advertisements, including commercials for Absolut Vodka and the television series Eureka. A small section of "Stobart's Blues" was removed, "The Backseat of My Car" was also remixed, and "The Blue Wrath" was expanded.
