"Pretty good compilation but I'd include "Generator", "Hey Johnny Park!", "Low", "I'll Stick Around" rather than "Breakout", "Skin and Bones", "Big Me". There are two new songs, "Wheels" and "Word Forward" which are both strong to excellent. This is a decent introduction to the Foos, but I find th..." [+] Reply

"They are book worms, they are robots, sometimes clinical, sometimes shining. Album works for the most part. The painted acrylic on the album cover represents the music world, it is shiny and smooth.
