You'd expect an NME album to be the perfection of the compilation world, considering the magazine is, generally, quite harsh with their reviews, and while this CD does strike some great tunes, it is either mixed badly or just plain dull.

But you've gotta give them credit for sticking a few, not very well known bands on here, that might get picked up on by the masses. But of course, it's the bigger names that will get this CD bought.

The best disc was CD2, as it was more lively and upbeat than the first disc. CD1 got a little reptitive, with many of the songs having the same kind of beat, or droning voice. It would have been better if they had mixed the songs up a bit, otherwise, CD2 will be the one you listen to most. Reviewed by: Wolvie-ware from London
