Customer Reviews:

A good start for new Atrocity fans.......2006-06-07

Atrocity are a band that don't bring or get to much attention for themselves and its a shame cause they are one of the most versitile and original Metal Groups ever. This is basically a wisely choosen collection of album singles of previous popularity among the bands diverse discography. Though if you truely wish to get the full aspect of the wonder that is Atrocity I suggest begin collecting their individual albums or/and seeing them live.

Such songs on here lke the popular 80's covers from Atrocity's 'Werk 80' album; Tainted Love & Shout will become easy favourites to most. Where as such Atrocity classics like B.L.U.T., Calling The Rain & Love Is Dead maybe a little harder for new fans to get into. But I beg you give them a chance, These songs have all grown on me and are oftenly some of my most beloved tracks to listen to.

As I had said this is an excellent start for New Atrocity fans and yet an excellent collection for long-time fans such as myself. A 'Best Of' If you will and possibly the best album that shows just how versitile Atrocity truely is. Not to mention the usual inclusion of beautiful women wearing little to nothing as are seen in most Atrocity albums.

This IS the progression of a band in its purest form!

Babes scantily clad in metal!.......2002-05-15

This album could get 5 stars just for the album photos. Nice!!

Besides that, this album is the epitome of a 'best of' collection. Atrocity is one of the most diverse bands in the darker realm of music, playing everything from death to goth to electronic metal to heavy industrial. This compilation gives an excellent cross section of what they've done over the years, which means that, unless you are a diehard fan, you'll love half the songs and probably not love the other half. I'm not really into the industrial bit, but Atrocity even adds some interesting elements into that genre. Fans who have all their albums will be pleased with the rare and remixed tracks. Some of the song selections from existing albums could have been chosen better, but hey, I guess we all could argue which songs off certain albums are the best. And let's not forget about the 80's covers songs; great to throw in at parties. Plus, SEVEN multimedia tracks! If a band is going to do a best of, this is the way to do it...multiple discs and several videos and rare tracks. You definately get good bang for your buck!
