5.0 out of 5 stars How could you give this any less than 5 stars?, November 12, 2001

This is an essential for any Life of Agony fan, or maybe even for a newcomer since it spans their whole career from their remastered demos to their more mellowed stuff in the later part of their career. Hearing the demos remastered like this is awesome, i just with they would have released a whole cd of their remastered demos! Songs like "Here I am, Here I Stay" and "Drowning" make me wonder why they never made it to River Runs Red. "Coffee Break" is an awesome B-side. A most excellent cover of the Zepplin tune "Tangerine", and with some live Ugly songs to top it off. It's really horrible that they had to break up but at least they left us with this.

For either old fans or new fans, this is a must have. Yeah, you can get most of these songs on other releases, but do you want to blow 50 bucks on ebay for "The Stain Remains" demo or even attempt at tracking down a copy of "East Coast Assault" for "Plexiglass Gate"? It's all here! That being said, their cover of "Redemption Song" is phenomenal and it's given me a new way to introduce LOA to people who would never have listened to them. I really can't say enough about this band and what they've meant to me over the past 10 years. I was saddened when they left and even happier when they returned (even tho it looks like I won't be there). As always, the stain remains . . .

5.0 out of 5 stars Hmm, their second best, October 25, 2000

Yes I know, it's useless to say that this is their second best, because it's not a real album. Anyway, most of the songs aren't on their official records so who cares? I must say that I never got too deep into their "Ugly" and "SOS" albums, something just didn't make me too enthusiastic about them, but they had both great songs too. I think their debut was in my opinion one of the best HC/METAL/ROCK albums of the nineties. I wasn't really interested when I heard that this album was put out, and it took me a damm long time to try a listen and yes... this is great! It has something for everyone, for everybody that ever had it's reasons to listen to Life of Agony. My personal favorites are... hmm well, every song exept for "Coffee Break" ( just not that great ) , "Colourblind" and "Step Aside" ( both of them Hardcore the way you think of it ). But overall, this album delivers. I think it's a must have for every LOA-fan and for everybody else who just liked the band ( like me ). I'm thinking about purchasing "Unplugged" too, although it seems that Roadrunner tries everything to make money out of LOA. As long as the music is great... and it is in case of 1989-1999.
