I'd hope for the latter, and it at least means listeners are spared pickings from the weakest Amorphis release to date. While 'Story' seemed a little pre-emptive at covering a band with only four major releases under its belt, 'Chapters' is more entertaining at five.

You know a band's getting a little desperate when they release two similar best-of compilations within three years, increasingly demonstrating how much better they used to be in the good old days. While 'Story' was a self-proclaimed '10th Anniversary' release in 2000, 'Chapters' is the first to feature new material from the disappointing 'Am Universum' album and the first to arrange all of the songs in reverse chronological order to offer a true retrospective.

Upbeat, atmospheric and surprisingly accessible black metal. 
Second disc may disappoint, and the whole thing isn't quite as experimental as you may expect. One of the best albums from possibly the most influential band of all time Some of it sounds dated A lot of great Maiden tracks, Some tracks not previously released live, Amazing crowd response Many tracks have been released on previous live albumsBruce's vocals are clearly sufferingNot the band at their best Are you having a laugh? Poor and gets worse! A bit of a seventies throwback, if you like that sort of thing. Boring, disappointing and annoying. A band moving forward. It looks like the wrong way.Reggatta De Blanc - The Police
New Wave & Post-punk - 2003
Raising Sand - Robert Plant and Alison Krauss
Two great artists, memorable vocal peformances, some super songs A few less memorable numbers, stalwart Led Zep fans may cringe
Rape Of The Bastard Nazerene - Akercocke
Some nice, raw, devilish metal from posh Londoners. Interludes are far too frequent, far too tedious and far too terrible.
Rapid Eye Movement - Riverside
Pop - 2007
Queen Of The Damned - Soundtrack
Definitely fitting with the movie, great tracklisting with sexy brooding songs My version has the swear words edited out... grr
Quick The Word Sharp The Action - Hundred Reasons
Another top class album from Aldershot's finest They still dont seem to get the acclaim they deserve
R.E.M. Live - R.E.M.
Superb set; great value DVD editing/production is disconcerting at first; no DVD extras
Pull The Pin - Stereophonics
Back to the rockier raw sound! A couple of weak tracks
Pour L'amour Des Chiens - Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band
Psychedelic Rock - 2007
Play It As It Lays - Patti Scialfa
Classic Rock - 2007
