The title of this second compilation begs all sorts of questions, such as what happened to the rock? Where did it go? When did it come back? And when did MTV start showing videos again? This compilation won't really answer these questions, but it does give an idea of the state of rock & roll circa 2000. Rock sort of vanished for awhile, while alternative, industrial, and hip-hop took the limelight. The rock bands that have emerged in the wake of several subcultures going mainstream more or less simultaneously have absorbed the strengths of those subcultures, turning the rock of 2000 into a very different beast from what existed in 1990. You can consequently put all kinds of things under the rock umbrella: Limp Bizkit, (hed) Planet Earth, and P.O.D., who all reference hip-hop; Marilyn Manson and Orgy, who borrow from industrial; and U.P.O. and Nickelback, who sound for all the world like they're trying to be Alice in Chains. Like its predecessor, this compilation includes bands both well-known and obscure who've absorbed genres that had small, select audiences a decade ago. If you can't beat 'em, co-opt 'em. --Genevieve Williams

very good.......2003-03-26

i love this because there are unrealised tracks on it. and sum great bands.

Better Than Volume 1........2002-08-13

MTV's back, with another album full of bands that Kurt Loder and Carson Daly have no idea who they are. But, beside that, this is a good Cd for true rock fans, who don't just go and purchase anything MTV puts out. I'll now review the songs I like:
1.Limp Bizkit-Show Me What You Got (Live)-2/5-A weird choice to put on here as a song, even more a weirder choice to put on here as a song...live, pretty much because it's a thanks song. But, besides that, the original pretty much [stinks] and it sounds awful live, and it annoys me on how much MTV love Limp Bizkit, to put them as the first track, in front of all the other bands that have so much more talent then them. That's a [downer].
2.Papa Roach-Legacy-5/5-An rare cut from Papa Roach, and it's awesome. MTV made a good choice on this pick, unlike something else. (See previous.)
3.Spineshank-Synthetic-4/5-Here's one of the bands I was talking about: Carson Daly probably has no idea who Spineshank is. But, here it is, one of Spineshank's best. The songs pretty loud, except for the verses.
4.Disturbed-God Of The Mind-5/5-Like Papa Roach's "Legacy", this is a rare cut from Disturbed, which can also be found on (I think) the Dracula 2000 soundtrack. It has that Disturbed touch to it, which makes you just love it.
5.Cold-Just Got Wicked-4/5-Just like Spineshank, Carson Daly has no idea. Cold's a great band, and they deserve more popularity. I think they're better than Staind, but Staind still rocks, too. This is a good song, but does get old. They better release their new album soon.
6.Deftones-Change (In The House Of Flies)(Acoustic)-4/5-Not as good as the original, which attained many new fan for the Deftones, but it's still good.
7.Nickelback-Leader Of Men-4/5-Kinda overrated, this is Nickelback's first single, ever. Great, but it just gets dulled down by all the hype.
8.Linkin Park-One Step Closer-4/5-Like you don't know this song.
10.POD-Freestyle (Knock 'Em Out The Box Mix)-2/5-I didn't like the original versionof this, and this is even worse, but I'm a POD fan, and I don't have the heart to give them a 0 or 1.
14. Goin' Down - Godsmack-2/5-Like the previous: I don't like this song, but I'm a Godsmack fan...and you know the rest.
16.Orgy-The Spectrum-5/5-A cool Orgy song, which could be found on the first thousand or so copies of "Vapor Transmission". Very rare, and MTV is kind enough to re-release it, in all it's glory, on their album.

If you're gonna get a "Return Of The Rock" album, get this first, as it has many more likable songs.

Alot better out there.......Try and find it..........2002-02-05

Unlike other reviewers I am trying to forget I bought this CD. I am a rock fan. LOVE ROCK MUSIC. I thought there was a winner here with tons of artists I recognized but most of the songs absolutely... Great artists but their worst work. MTV2's new album, Handpicked, does a great job with alternative rock music as there are tons of great songs on it......LOADED with at least 8 but this one... in comparison as there were 1-2 songs I really liked.

I was personally VERY suprised how few good songs there were on this one..........There are alot of artists you know but not their best work, let alone good work.

Spend your money on better albums folks. Do another...search for rock compilations and, most importantly, listen to the album first. I wished I did. I wish I had some other great compilations to provide but they are few and far between. Hopefully MTV will quit harming their brand image by putting out... like this.

Volume Two is great........2001-08-06

1. Show Me What You Got [Live] - Limp Bizkit (don't really care for) 2. Legacy - Papa Roach (great) 3. Synthetic - Spineshank (awesome) 4. God of the Mind - Disturbed (great) 5. Just Got Wicked - Cold (awesome) 6. Change (In the House of Flies) [Acoustic] - Deftones (great) 7. Leader of Men - Nickelback (great) 8. One Step Closer - Linkin Park (awesome) 9. Waiting to Die - (Hed) Planet Earth (awesome) 10. Freestyle [Knock 'Em Out The Box Mix] - P.O.D (don't really care for) 11. Down - Fuel (good) 12. Mechanical Animals [Live] - Marilyn Manson (awesome) 13. Back to the Primitive - Soulfly (great) 14. Goin' Down - Godsmack (great) 15. Godless - U.P.O (good) 16. The Spectrum - Orgy (great)

Volume One was good, Volume Two may not of matched the number of tracks, but it was able to meet most everyone's standards, and exceed them.

Sweet CD.......2001-03-14

Hey this is an awsome cd, so everyone should own it! Why? Because with songs like Everybody Dies (hed P.E.), Change in the House of Flies(deftones), and maralyn manson and orgy make this cd a must have for any true REAL rock fan. Go get this cd now, mmkay?

Some Good Songs, Mostly Crap, Though.......2005-02-12

Here's what I think about each song on this CD:

1. (Kid Rock - F**k That) F**k Kid Rock. I deleted his songs off my hard drive because I realized how much he sucks!
2. (Slipknot - Spit It Out) Slipknot rules, but this is not their best song.
3. (Methods Of Mayhem - Crash) Crap from Tommy Lee's lame side project.
4. (Korn - Make Me Bad [remix]) Do NOT listen to remixes, especially if it's a song from their worst CD.
5. (P.O.D. - Southtown) One of my few favorite P.O.D. songs.
6. (Staind - Just Go) This is when Staind was a one-hit wonder and had darker songs. I don't like them as much anymore.
7. (Machine Head - From This Day) Machine Head rules!
8. (System of a Down - Suite-Pee) A better song to put on here is "Sugar", their filthiest song ever.
9. (Kittie - Brackish) My only favorite all girl band. Good song, but I like the stuff off their newer CD's better.
10. (Incubus - Pardon Me) My likings for Incubus have declined, but I still listen to them.
11. (Coal Chamber - Not Living) Coal Chamber rules!
12. (Full Devil Jacket - Stain) A great song from a great band.
13. (Static-X - S.O.M.) Static-X rules, but I'm not into their rarities.
14. (Boiler Room - Do It Again) Never heard of them.
15. (Sevendust - Denial) Sevendust was still good around this era. "Seasons" was a disappointment, though.
16. (Papa Roach - Infest) I don't like Papa Roach that much anymore. "Last Resort" is the first song I ever downloaded, and it's an O.K. song. This song sucks, though.
17. (Liquid Gang - Blunt Force Trauma) "Closer" is a better track.
18. (Powerman 5000 - When Worlds Collide) Powerman 5000 rules!
19. (Dope - Everything Sucks [remix]) Great band, great song, crappy remix.

That's my review for this CD. Just don't buy Vol. 2, with crappy bands like Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park.

bleh............2003-11-09

Way too much nu-metal garbage on here- Kid Rock?? Papa Roach?!?!?! yuck... if you want a good MTV rock/metal compilation go with the Headbangers Ball cd(s)

how can u not like this...........2003-03-13

it is worth buying for the tracks by: sliknot, korn, p.o.d., papa roack, and soad

I wasted some money here..........2003-01-20

This album is full of great bands...System of a Down, Slipknot, Dope, P.O.D., Staind, Static-X, Korn, the Backstreet Boys, etc., etc. But most of the songs are already released, so there's no point in buying them again, right? Well, I did, but not for the already released songs, but for Static-X's "S.O.M.", Korn's remix of "Make Me Bad" and Dope "remix" of "Everything Sucks". The only good (new) song on the whole album is the "Make Me Bad" remix! Static-X's "S.O.M." isn't too good, and I'm just angered MTV called their "new verison" or "Everything Sucks" a remix. The only differenc in the song is that at the beginning of the original, there's about 10 seconds or so of silent keyboards and then the guitars, drums, etc. pop in. All big bad Andy Wallace did was shorten those ten seconds down to two, let the song play, hand it to MTV (who probably have no idea what the original sounds like anyway, the just put it here to be "hip") and called it a "remix". Thanks, Andy.

The bottom line: unless you're willing to waste your money on songs you already have, or unless you have to have every single thing a certan artist on here is involved with, or you like every single band that has a new track (not including Dope), buy this album very, very cheap USED on this site. Don't waste money.

AHHH!! THIS CD ROOCKS!! AWESOME!COOL!!.......2001-05-21

MY GOD!!!! WHAT A BEEEEEP CD!!THIS IS MY FAVORITE CD OF ALL TIME!! BECAUSE OF THIS CD I LIKE SLIPKNOT, KoRn, DOPE, P.O.D., KITTIE, SEVENDUST, SYSTEM OF A DOWN, ETC... !! I LOVE IT!! aNd YoU WiLL TO!! (I GOT THE CLEAN VERSION BUT EVERY NOW AND THEN I CAN SPOT 999,999 CUSS WORDS THEY FORGOT TO BEEEEEP OUT!)

TODAY'S ROCK IS NOT ROCK ANYMORE........2001-04-20

IF YOU LIKE REAL, STRAIGHT ROCK - THIS IS NOT FOR YOU. YOU WOULD BE MORE THAN DISSAPOINTED. TODAY'S MUSIC CALLED 'ROCK' IS RATHER ROCK-RAP WHERE YOU HEAR A LOT OF NOT PROPER WORDS. IT'S NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE CALLED MUSIC - IT'S JUST SOMETHING WHAT IMITATES IT.

BUT IF YOU REALLY WANT TO HAVE IT; THAN THERE'S ONLY ABOUT 5-7 SONGS ON THIS CD THAT ARE GOOD, INCLUDING: KORN - MAKE ME BAD (SICKNESS IN SALVATION MIX).

The cd was ok but............2000-06-13

The cd was ok, but i'm not a big Kid Rock or Slipnot Fan. I love Korn and wish they had put more of their stuff it in....I dont always enjoy screaming obsenities, and niether do my parents so i found this cd great! it also has bands i'd heaard of but never heard until now.
