That such bile is attached to a gorgeous descending chord sequence is a masterstroke that adds an impossibly appealing edge to lyrics that could otherwise be distancing and unpalatable. The Auteurs's strengths definitely lie in these juxtapositions: they're present in 'Subcultcha', a litany of ridiculous behaviour set to driven drums and catchy melody. Perhaps Haines's voice is one of his weak point; a thin wisp that some listeners never quite grasp, but he makes...more |

Rating:
Even in an age of such constant artistic recycling, it still seems strange to release a 3-CD box-set of rarities celebrating such a relatively obscure musician. But Luke Haines has always thrived on such aesthetic left-turns, and appears to delight in confounding expectations and confusing his audience. The hubris continues in Haines's own myth-taking sleeve notes, and the inclusion of a nonsensically pretentious 'essay' by critic Paul Morley just adds to the contrary, paradoxical image of a man who enjoys baiting his fans: the very people who keep his status as an artist alive. After spending time as the guitarist in The Servants (where he met bassist Alice ...

Great music, Good mix of song styles 
Not as good as they get The first disc is amazing A bit more hit and miss on disc 2 PiL arguably at their best, Jah Wobble on bass guitar, the whole album Jah Wobble left after this album Spans the bands career (to a degree) , Good for 'beginners', A few variations available Missing lots of my favourites! Entire albums eras missing Not a single bad track! None! Good mix of songs catering for a variety of fans. Would have liked a more upbeat album.War Of The Worlds - Crimson Glory
Heavy Metal - 2000
Sweat - Nelly
A few club bangers Old problems come through here again
Synthetic Division - Crossbreed
Balanced fusion of industrial and rock elements. All been heard before.
Take No Prisoners - Chinchilla
Greater band performance. Still falls in the face of competition.
The Beauty Of Contrast - Sinew
The album is packed full of atmosphere, the music is action packed from start to finish. Some of the tracks are quite long, this could put some people off listening.
The Story So Far - Spunge
A couple of decent tracks, the music is quite fun and upbeat. Some of the tracks have a habit of plodding along in tiresome fashion.
Tokyo Warhearts - Children Of Bodom
Tight and well-selected early performance. Only draws from two studio albums, and solo performances are disappointing.
Transmigration - Crematory
Average gothic death metal. Emotionally and atmospherically unsatisfying.
Quebec - Ween
An eclectic and imaginative interpretation of musical genres. One or two tracks are hard going but don't detract from the wonder of the whole
Rain Forest - Concerto Moon
Better incorporation of guitar talent. Still sounds the same as other bands.
