Piebald is so good. This double CD is rock at it's finest. The first CD is all their old stuff from talent shows, demos, splits, and their old EP. The second CD is all the songs on Lemons, plus a bunch of Venetian Blinds demos, 1 or 2 live radio performances, and a bunch of unreleased stuff. The unreleased stuff is real good. They do a Beatles cover and a Slayer cover. The Venetian Blinds demos are amazing cause Alex Garcia-Rivera is playing drums instead of Jon Sullivan, and not to put down Jon (he's real good), but my god, Alex is ridiculously good. His drumming adds so much to the music. If you dig Piebald, this is a must. It really helps someone appreciate the evolution of this band over the years.

This 2 cd set is worth the price and more. It's great to see how a band evolved from a hardcore band to a Weezer/Pixies hybrid. The first disc, which is more hardcore, consists of early demo's and what not. However, the gem is disc 2. It contains demo's of "Venitian Blinds.." and the whole "If Life Hands You Lemons" full length, which is great. Also included is a cover of "I Saw Her Standing There" by the Beatles, which is awesome.

Pick up this disk along with "We Are the Only Friends We Have", to get a good taste of Piebald.

This album is for Piebald fans who have heard more than "We are the only friends we have". It is an awesome overview of their albums.

These albums are in my opinion some of the best I have bought. I rather enjoy Piebald for many reasons. Not only do the singer and I share the same first name, but this compilation is filled with such classics as "New Coke", "Small Town Outside of Boston", "Holden Caufield", "American Hearts", "Grace Kelly with Wings", "Time Lost", "Pretty Face", "Watch her Flow" and many others. Piebald is just great as a band and I am glad I own these albums.

i am on such a piebald kick right now. these guys are absolutely amazing. anybody who's into piebald should defenitly get this album. it's tons of fun to listen to. the first disk is their early post-hardcore kinda stuff. i totally never knew piebald used to be a post-hardcore band, which just makes me respect them so much more. it's interesting to see how they've evolved over the past few years. the second disk has when life hands you lemons, which i happen to like better than venetian blinds, plus there are a bunch of live tracks and venetian blinds demos. it's great fun to listen to. all in all it's a terrific album. plus, it's less than 20 dollars for about 2 hours worth of music. that's a deal

product was promptly delivered for a STEAL of a price, including shipping and handling. $6 for a double CD? Awesome.
