As another reviewer said and i feel it is a good point, it is a bit strange reviewing a compilation CD that is just a review of the best bands of last year voted for by NME. However it is a great compilation and includes some of the greatest songs and bands of last year For example Razorlight- America Snow patrol chasing- Cars Bloc Part- Here we are Etc SO this would make a great present if you do not know what to get someone as most people will like at least some of the songs on there i do and this music is not really my favorite type and NME being a popular music magazines it will be most likely there will appreciate.
CD1 The killers When you were young Razorlight America The Automatic Monster The fratellis Chelsea Dagger Arctic Monkeys When the Sun goes Down (live) Dirty Pretty Things Bang Bang, You're Dead The ordinary boys Lonely at the top Boy kill boy Suzie Kaiser Chiefs You Can HAve it All Franz ferdinand The Fallen Yeah Yeah Yeahs Gold Lion Feeder Lost and Found The Rakes 22 Grand Job The maccabees X-ray The MArshals MAke Her Cry The Rapture Get myself into it New Young Pony Club Ice Cream Dogs London Bridge Wolfmother Woman Little Man Tate House Party at Boothy's
CD2 Snow Patrol Chasing cars Keane Is it any wonder The kooks She moves in her own way Guillemots Trains to Brazil Thom Yorke Harrowdown hill The Charlatons Blackened Blue Eyes Babyshambles Albion Embrace Nature's Law Bloc Party Here We are Bedouin Soundclash When the night feels my soul Patrick Wolf Accident and emergancy Peter bjorn and John Young folks The dears Ticket to Immortality BellX1 Rocky took a lover Joyzipper 1 Just Jack writer's block Cribs You're going to lose Milburn Send in the boys Cord sea of trouble Scott Matthews Elusive
This is one of those albums that you can just put on and listen all the way through and just chill and enjoy the most popular music of last year which i think has been the best year for new bands. The Arctic monkeys when sun goes down is absolutely amazing and i must credit them for been and exceptional good band when live. The other great thin about this CD is that the lesser known bands are on here too, which i think is great as when i used to be in a band any good review was a bonus and being on an NME compilation must be astonishing for them and a great boost for this year. A few of these have played at a local night club and arena near where i live and i know a lot of people that have been to see these bands and have seen them in different city's and there all said that they have been great live band such the Fratelies Arctic monkeys and Razorlight
For value for money i think this album is right at the top you get 40 songs, and all the tracks are great and as i said it features the best bands of last year, so if your a bargain hunter this album is for you.
