Customer Reviews Cool remixes, rare songs and b-sides. I would not recommend a casual listener to buy this, because it is not a regular release, but there are plenty of reasons to pick it up. If you are a fan, this is a must-have set. I do not usually like remixes, but these are done so well and while I always like the studio cuts better, I still find myself coming back to this cd. There is enough solid material on this cd to make it a good value. Some remix/rare song compilations are just rip-offs. I consider this to be one of the best I have ever purchased in that category. Why two stars cause only two songs are worthy of stars It is up to your musical taste if you wish to listen to the rest of the cd. Anything but this is like the usual Static X as well as Burning Inside. This cd is the turning point in there music. Wisconsin and Machine are similar then Shadow Zone is it's own cd then all the new stuff sounds the same. If you like a more main stream sound from Static X this is your cd they change it up alot and most of it is catchy but some does suck listen and find out. Eh With that said the demos are pretty cool to see how much the songs changed for the album from their conception. In my opinion I think that to really dig this album you have to be a pretty devout Static-X fan because there is nothing is not too much on this disc that is plain outstanding but it is a good collection of songs nonetheless. Also the inclusion of "Crash" with Mephisto Odyssey, which has always been one of my favorites, is a nice treat. The one thing on this disc that totally makes it worth it is the cover of The Ramones "Gimme Gimme Shock Treatment" is so awesome that I would probably buy the disc just for those two minutes. The rest of the songs are decent but definitely not classics. Also if you are looking at this disc for the remixes look away because they are just downright terrible. A good overview of their stuff outside of the albums though. . You can see a complete list of all Static-X discography, or go back to the Static-X tabs
