I never understood...

"...what happened to The Chills. They wrote some of the best pop songs of the nineties, yet could never seem to get their act together enough to fulfill their real potential. This is a good introduction, though really you might be better off just buying Submarine Bells and Kaleidoscope world instead, because once you hear this you're going to want to buy them anyways. My biggest regret is that they left off the bonus disc that was included in the original import pressing: while it only has a handful of difficult to find songs on it, one of those songs, Big Dark Day, is one of their best and, unless you have the patience (and luck) to track down the original single it was on, is nearly impossible to find anymore. Yet another example of one of the saddest pop music tragedies that no one seems to know or care about."
