Editorial Reviews
CD Description
The fourth album from US soft-rock sensations Matchbox Twenty is a retrospective package that contains their biggest singles to date along with several new tracks. The new material remains in the band's trusted and accessible AOR framework, featuring the band's drummer Paul Doucette playing rhythm guitar after the departure of original guitarist Adam Gaynorin 2005. Collecting singles such as 'Disease' (co-written with Mick Jagger of The Rolling Stones) and 'Bent', which topped the Billboard chart in 2000, this release is essential for both fans and newcomers alike.
Customer Reviews
Bobster knows nothing!
Exactly what BOBSTER was expecting from a greatest hits package is beyond me...I was expecting a CD full of greatest hits and thats exactly what I got. He says it doesn't say anywhere that this is a greatest hits CD yet the amazon review for this album alone clearly states that its a 'retrospective package that contains their biggest singles to date along with several new tracks'. The only problem with this compilation is that it would need to have at least one more CD in it to fit on all their great tracks. If you liked this album you must buy their previous offerings, and if like BOBSTER you feel this is a CD single with filler tracks im sure you will find it to be the best CD single in your collection. This is top notch stuff and i hope Rob and the boys bring out a brand new album soon.
Not sure what the boys are up to here?
After such a long time with nothing, the news of a new album was very pleasing. Unfortunately this is billed as a 'best of' with a few extras thrown in. Why? is the question? Why create 6 tracks and not make an album? The first new 6 tracks are not that good in my mind. Carry on listening to the rest of the old stuff and you soon remember why this band really had something different. If I didnt know better I would say the new tracks are B sides that never made previous albums, although I'm probably wrong on that. Its worth a listen if you are a M20 fan, but overall an opportunity missed I'm afraid.
Bit of Both really
I have to admit I completely forgot this album had come out! however I went to the Matchbox twenty concert at Wembley in May and it reminded me, Overall good and bad, I can see what some people are saying, out of the 6 new songs, at least 2 of them are what you would call "Album Songs" but still good, The greatest hits bit, i wasn't sure about, however it sounds like they have all been re-recorded, and it makes the album good to get, the sound of the whole album has an alot more acostic sound and it means the older songs sound fresh. Overall for £8 its an album that Matchbox fans should have.
