CD Reviews

Ugh! Who selected these songs!
07/02/2004
(2 out of 5 stars)

"This is not a review of Matthew Sweet, who is a phenomenal talent, but rather of whoever chose these selections. Were these randomly pulled out of a hat? If you want a greatest hits collection, check out Time Capsule. It's not perfect, either, but it's a heck of a lot closer than this mish-mash. This gets two stars because it's remastered and, frankly, it is Matthew Sweet so all the tracks are listenable. Not his greatest hits, though."
Schizophrenic Hodgepodge!
07/02/2004
(2 out of 5 stars)

"This is an schizophrenic hodgepodge of a compilation with a few of Matthew's alternative radio hits, bizzare picks for album tracks and one rare EP track (Superdeformed) tossed in. Whoever culled these tracks together had no idea about Matthew's music, though I give them credit for adding the overlooked "Thunderstorm" suite from "In Reverse". (It's worth hearing but not in this context).



Leave this cheapo CD made for truck stops and convenience stores in the rack and buy "Time Capsule" instead which has 7 of the 12 tracks here, excellent liner notes and coherent sequencing."
The Ugly Truth
Old Hickory | The Hermitage, Tennessee, United States | 03/27/2009
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This is a quasi-random selection of songs from Matthew Sweet and not a Greatest Hits CD. See Time Capsule if you want that. Instead, this is a studio remaster of both popular and B-side songs which is good for those of us who don't wear Member's Only jackets and cry out Free Bird at Buffett concerts. It's good Matthew Sweet stuff in some repackaging. No big deal. Besides, you can never here "Sick of Myself" enough."
