"If you like New Model Army at all this disc is a wonderful compliment to your collection. This disc spans a good decade of NMA and it represents a side of their sound not found on most of their studio albums. A definite must for any completeist. As a resident of the USA most of these tracks are quite rare until being made accessible here for the first time.The sound of most of this disc is mostly underproduced, in a good way. A very raw honest sound. Although you could describe most NMA songs that way. But most of these songs seem to have another layer peeled away, truly exposing the musicians. The sort of stuff that reveals them in a close intimate way. This is as real as it gets, barring a live performance."

Proof Positive of How Good NMA Actually Is

"No other band can do this: release a collection of b-sides, rarities and a remix or two that:1) is as good as any of their studio releases;
2) is better than anything else released that year;
3) puts all arena-rock bands to shame;
4) goes so far to restore one's faith in humanity (or at least some of it);
5) rocks.Utterly fantastic. "Deadeye" alone is worth the price of this CD."
