"Overall, I think that this disc has a very good variety of sounds on here, and that some extremely creative takes on SI songs were done. There are several dancey remixes, a "cover", more or less, of I Feel Fine done folksy/Bob Dillon Style, mixes that were experimental in the realm of being Skinny Puppy-esque, and some that were a great amalgamation of several genres in one song. My favorites among them were En Esch's remix of Lazy, Track 2 - the second It Won't Do Remix, and Hanzel and Gretyl's version of Idiot. While I do wish that someone would have done remixes of Make Me Believe, the video for the song was on this disc and kinda made up for that particular remix void. The vid was very cool and well done with some neat effects and even some cute outakes during the credits. the remixers on here did a good job of rewiring the original songs to make them their own creation. Definitely worth checking out. :)"
