 Great Box Set, but problems with QC of CD's November 27, 2007
1 out of 10 found this review helpful
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.
 Awesome Box Set December 23, 2007

I enjoyed the box set. However, I didn't enjoy the 4th cd as well as I did the first three CDs. The overall quality of the Box Set is very good.
missing bands January 22, 2008
1 out of 5 found this review helpful
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.
AWESOME!!! January 1, 2008
This is the perfect purchase for any Indie fan. It is a great collection of music! It is a must buy :)
Brit Pop with a bite January 14, 2008
In the United State when one thinks of "Brit Pop", the Sixties british invasion comes to mind. However, in the mid-eighties up until the late ninties- Brit Pop scrapped together punk, synth, and romantic new wave rock with a twist of sixties psychedelic rock to make the music danceable. In the U.S. groups like Ned's Atomic Dustbin, and Cornershop had songs that were popular with college music stations. In a sense you might say that this collection is a "part II" to Rhino's "Left of the Dial." Some of this music still exists today, except it is under the "Nu Rave" name.
