"This disc would have been better if more studio tracks were included. I don't care for the "live" songs (most of disc two). I was also disappointed that 'Eternal Ban' didn't make the roster,it's one of their best. Still there is quite a lot of very good tracks here. Destruction is what death metal was. If you haven't heard them this is your chance to treat yourself."

"This greatest hits album by Destruction really deserves 5 stars, but again the booklet inside the CD is a HUGE let down. Inside you see a few pictures scattered around, no Intro to the band, no respected journalist recounting Destructions glory in the 80's and not even a word from the band members. They could have made this double CD much more special if they had included more information on the band and a brief bio. Anyway, the music in it itself saves the CD. Destruction play a very fast form of Thrash metal that influenced countless of thrash and Death metal bands alike. All the classic Destruction songs are here and you get a few live songs. I wish I could have seen them live back when they were touring for the "Live without Sense" tour. No heavy metal collection should exist without a Destruction album lying around, this is a good CD to have."
