"This CD is just so great. I picked it up for the Saves the Day B-Side "Ups and Downs" (which is the best song on the cd and is worth the 5-10 bucks you'll spend). I was pretty familiar with some of the other bands, but some I had never heard. Every band is represented with a strong track (or two). The music ranges from soft emo, to almost punk, and everything in between. I don't like to "classify" music, but this is some great emo. This Cd is a super way for people to explore more and hear some different bands. Vagrant is a great label, and this is a great comp. A..., must buy for all music fans."
Sweet CD

"This cd is one of the best present emo compilations. It has everthing from the hardercore emo to the more mainstream emo such as Saves the Day and Get Up Kids. Some of my favorites on this record are "Hands Down" by Dashboard Confessional, "nightengale" by saves the day...and tons more. I would have paid 25 bucks for this thing. but i got it for 5. If you are even reading this review, i recommend purchasing this cd"

"For [the price], this is a great CD to add to your emo collection. I probably would've paid a full $15 for this great compilation. Luckily, Vagrant realizes that it's better the get the word out about their bands then to rip off everyone with insane prices. If you know one of these bands, more than likely you know about the rest of them. Saves the Day always puts out quality songs. Dashboard Confessional's contributions are classics. One from the latest album and another from the latest EP (Hands Down). The only bands on this CD that I've never heard of before Viva Death and Rocket from the Crypt. Still...all great music if you like Emo/Punk. And for [the price]? You'd be stupid NOT to buy it! Get one now!"
