Out next month this 2cd includes 11 newly re-recorded hits plus the new album Ghosts Of Download. Not too impressed with the best of track listing. Only 11 tracks? and all re-recorded.

Forget the re-records. So sad. Minor bands do this. Although it has all of their 5 or 6 best songs.

I'll await a review of the DVD before trying to get this on the cheap.

Just did . The new songs great. Very varied like No Exit . The re-recorded hits sound awful! The originals were far better.

i like ALL the re-recorded songs, they sound good.

nice to not have the same versions for the 30th time...(they have at least 37 compilations according to discogs).

listening to the album, it's average so far.

the relax track is a cover of FGTH, which is weird.
starts off really mellow and picks up. but still an
odd choice.

will keep listening to the rest of the tracks, there's a lot of them.

later
