A Good Compilation, But NOT great :-/

"I have been buying the Warped Tour Compilations since 2002, and this years compilation is yet another that I am happy to add to my collection... But, the only regret I have about buying this 2-Disk set is that certain songs are edited when in the past songs have not been. I don't know if this is pressure passed down from record executives who only agree to put the albums without parental advisories if they are edited, or not... if that is the case I would rather have them put the compilations out with the P.A.S's, while also offering edited copies as well. Growing up in a household where the only CD's I could own as a child/teenager were the ones that were edited I agree that parents reserve the right to keep their children from listening to lyrics they find unacceptable. I understand why some stores offer edited copies as well as unedited copies for this reason. But I personally believe (for persons such as myself at age 22) that the option to purchase the albums in an unedited format would be much more enjoyable. Other than this minor inconvenience, I love enjoy this compilation as much as any other I have bought in the past."

"I have bought all the Warped tour compilations since early 2000's and I have been pleased for the most part. 50 songs ranging from crunchy punk to melodic catchy pop for the price of a Hamburger, fries and a Coke, isn't a bad deal. I have seen these sets on sale for $5.00, but even are full price your bound to like more than you do not. It's also a inexpensive way to learn about bands you may never hear of. I know I didn't know any of these bands before buying these sets. I own 8,000 CD's and I'm glad to have some obscure, but good new material to check out. The Warped Tour sets are worth looking into!"
