"okay, i love tbs just as much as the next guy/gal, but this will be the third time i buy this album.



yes there are two added tracks on it, but i already own both of these, one is from punk goes acoustic, and the other is all over the internet, and i think it was on one of their early demos.



so, i guess you get the dvd disc, but why wasn't this just released as a dvd, the record companies need to stop reissuing cds. i do not want more copies of the disc, just sell the extra material as a stand alone product, so i don't have to fork over so much money buying a product i already own twice...



and as far as the two extra tracks go, put them out as a single, put it on their forthcoming album, throw it on itunes, just dont make me rebuy something i already own.



greed. greed. greed. it's same thing that drives the dvd market that makes it so disgusting.



3 stars. the album rocks, but the situation sucks, and yes i did rebuy it. mission accomplished victory records, you rob the fans again.



now if you'll excuse me im going to reissue this review with added paragraphs."

"ABOUT THE "MISSING" DVD EXTRAS (live acoustic videos, interviews, etc.):







These extras are on the AUDIO CD itself! It is an ENHANCED CD and thus... that is where I found them! (I almost thought I got ripped off too!)



Pop the audio cd into your computer and it SHOULD appear. If it doesn't play, you most likely need to download Quicktime as that is the video player program it uses.







Hope this was helpful to you! :) :) :)

The packaging is a bit (or very) misleading unfortunately."

Excellent Album!

"As mentioned before the acoustic videos and interview are on the 10 track audio cd when you put in your computer (I couldn't get it to play in a regular DVD player). Also the "June" band dvd has about 10 music videos from many different bands. (Hawthorne Heights, Straylight Run, Silverstein, and some less mainstream known bands). I would list my favorite songs but I would have to list them all. I honestly think there is no filler on the disc. This band has been compared to Hawthorne Heights alot but I don't think they are very similar. I have the HH album and they are just screaming constantly and it sounds like a mess sometimes, also I don't think instumentaly they are as good either. Taking Back Sunday has very thought out lyrics and they seem original to me. "The truth is...you could slit my throat..and with my one last gasping breath, I'd apologize..for bleeding on your shirt" I haven't got their "Where You Want to Be" album, so I can't compare it to that, but I plan to get it soon. The extra 2 songs and the videos and interviews are definetly worth $15 if you are a fan of punk/emo. On this website you can download "Cute without the E". If you like that song, you will like the entire album. It is an energetic, sometimes screaming, angst filled album. Highly recommended, my new fav band."
