The reason there best of album came out now was to mark their departure from victory records. Besides artist make less than .99 per album so it wasn't for the money. The CD is amazing I haven't taken it out of the CD player. This album shows the evolution of Atreyu and their maturity to the band they are now. I wish them nothing but the best so that they can start a new chapter in their lives.

Great selection to introduce anyone to this band, actually quite generous on their part because you are getting most of their first album, half of the second and third one, so the decent stuff is on here, except my fork in the road... but oh well, everything but the kitchen sink is on this cd + videos?!?!?, so to those "fans' that can't get over the fact that Atreyu IS a mainstream band and commercial, boooo hooooo, get over it you dweebs and get a life, these guys are riding it while they can and they gave most of their good stuff and a whole lot of it too!! You can't say they're ripping off anyone, on the contrary, they're practically giving 3 cd's in one!!! Great bang for your buck plus videos, yeah!!!!And the cover is soooooooo screwy it's the bomb!!

I had the the album Atreyu: Geatest hists a cew yrs ago and lost the album, i decided to buy the album online again and bought from this seller, i recieved my package faster than i expected and the packeging was very well prepared :) I appreciate the business

This album is the most fantastic Atreyu compilation ever. Anyone thinking about listening to Atreyu should definitely buy this album, I did!

I think its a very good album. I like that instead of having to buy all their old cds I could buy one with the best songs.Saves me money and I know I already have the best they have to offer.
It was my first time I ever listen to Atreyu, Save one song" ex's and oh's" which I don't like and I don't know what people find so special about it.
I think them putting out a "best of" cd will score some new fans like myself who hear about them but never really listen so when we see this, its a golden ticket to see what these guys are all about.

You seriously think this band should get a best of CD this early? Or even get a best of CD? Personally, I can only tolerate their pre-Curse stuff, when the band used less polished production and didn't resort to lame pop-punk. But anyways, even if you are an Atreyu fan or not, don't buy this. It's just the Victory records discography minus a few tracks, and a real fan would obviously have all of their works.

Also, they forgot the "Fractures" and "Visions" EP tracks as well (I know they weren't released on Victory...). If you want to make something worthy, at least re-release your older EP's on a CD so that the fans can get a taste of the band's early days.

Avoid this, Atreyu fan or not. This is just another way for Victory Records to rake in the cash.

I was familiar with Atreyu. I had heard a few of thier songs, but I have never purchased any of thier music. This is a great CD for someone who does not own any of Atreyu's CDs. It has a lot of thier better songs, all on one CD. This CD is not for true Atreyu fans that already own all of thier CDs. I have seen a lot of Atreyu fans bash this CD. Well of course, there are not any new songs on the CD, the only thing it adds is a DVD. The CD itself is great. I love every song on this CD. They have a great sound, and the vocals are amazing. I would definitely recommend this CD to anyone who likes hard rock.

This album (video material not included) should only be purchased by people that own any other Atreyu albums. Yeah, it's because they are leaving Victory, but if you own any of their three major releases, you already own one third of this. It doesn't even have "Her Portrait In Black", which may add some form of redemption to its purchase being as it's not really available on an album already.
If it's your first Atreyu album, go for it. If it's not, leave it be.

Ok, so it is not an "original" album, like everyone else said, more of the old. Good for people just getting into the band, but pointless if you have the cds, just make a burned copy of the songs in the same order and there you have it. go to youtube if you want to see the videos, great band so i couldnt give less then 3 stars

This band does not deserve a greatest hits album after 3. Especially when only two of them are good. A Death Grip on Yesterday had me screaming at my cd player. Their emo crap made me cringe. It was clear the record label pushed them in a certain direction just because their drummer has an amazing singing voice.
When I saw them live in 05' they were touring off The Curse, excellent energy and they played with a great metal band with the likes of Unearth. Suicide Notes is one of the best metal albums by a very young band at the time (see Poison the Well's Opposite of December). It makes me sad the direction they went in. Unfortunately, after reading a brief review, I'm sure their new album sucks too.
If you want to listen to metal, get Parkway Drive, Unearth, In Flames, Lamb of God, Himsa, Shattered Realm, August Burns Red, or the new Megadeth album. Those are kickass, Atreyu sucks.
