Free Music Notes for Brit Box: UK Indie Shoegaze & Brit Pop Gems
Free Music Review: missing bands
Hit: 3 Stars
include :strangelove,puressence,shed seven,house of love, molly half head(who?),idlewild,levitation(see house of love ).and if your going to have bands like the dylans why not the milltown brothers.also,where is doves ? they released music in the late 90's. but enough about the nitpicking because if a collection has bands like the family cat and thousand yard stare it gets points for trying.Free Music Review: Great Box Set, but problems with QC of CD's
Hit: 3 Stars
I really enjoy the packaging and tracks selected by Rhino. Though, I wish there was better Quality Control of the CD's. Three tracks will not play (Trash Can Sinatras, Menswear, and Supergrass). I've tried multiple CD players with no success.Free Music Review: Incredibly Mediocre!
Hit: 2 Stars
I would probably give this compilation more like 1.5 stars, except that would disrespect the few good tracks (MBV, Spiritualized, Teenage Fanclub, Lush, etc.) scattered amongst the piles of mediocrity on this compilation. Take the best tracks and you would have a very strong, if unadventurous, single disc compilation. This four disc comp, however, is bloated with middling bands that don't even rise to the status of one hit wonders. I'm deeply puzzled by the warm reception this compilation has received in the other reviews.
