Err... do a little review as well. Who it might appeal to.
The album obviously features various artists and is one of those albums that you can actully listen to all the way through without having to skip the odd rubbish track.

COOL! I saw them live a few months back... the crowd reaction was pathetic... but it was just the back room of some pub. Still, they were pretty good. The headline band Tribute To Nothing (thisGIRL are on lockjaw records, run by one of the members of TTN) were great.
The Strokes - Is This It
Feeder - Echo Park
Counting Crows - August and Everything After
Counting Crows - Across a Wire
Counting Crows - This Desert Life
All brilliant :D.
I hated this at first, left it on repeat for a while and now half my favourites playlist is made up of tracks off it. Lots of things that I'd heard elsewhere and didn't realise it was them, like In A Room.
Not bad, I know plenty of people who hate it though, heh..
But I got 2 on my birthday 2 weeks ago today:
Nickelback - Silver Side Up
Seems to be pretty popular unfotunately. And the better tracks are ones like 'Never Again', not neccesarily 'How You Remind Me'.
You'll probably like it if you like a bit of grunge/rock.
Hoobastank - self titled
Their vocalist sounds like Brandon Boyd, and even looks like him!! But he's an un-related Japanese guy, and they're not Incubus.
Still, there a decent band and one that doesn't deserve to be ruined by those annoying little pop fans.
Nu-metal, punk, and a little pop-rock comes to mind when I think of the tracks on this album...
Brilliantly produced and very different from anything I've heard. It's one of the few albums I've listened to that actually keeps you interested from start to finish. Give it a try!
