4.0 out of 5 stars Good hits cd, February 21, 2005

This is a pretty good compliation CD. Its a re-issue of the previous "vol. 1" greatest hits cd.

I think 3-4 more songs could have been fit on this cd. It clocks in only a little over a hour. I also dont like how some of the tracks have been remastered (or lack thereof). Why "Saturday night alright for fighting" is on here is beyond me.

The packaging is a bit cheezy. It looks like it was printed on a inkjet printer. It contains a small booklet with some liner notes and info about the band. There are also some pictures in the booklet.

It might be better just to get the first 2 cds though(W.A.S.P. and The last command), since they contain the best songs anyways.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's ok, but not really the best, January 27, 2006

This starts of with a cover of Elton John's "Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting," which sounds okay, but seems out of place. It should have been placed alongside the last three tracks. It's great that they included "Animal(F**k like a beast). It's the one that put them in the spotlight. Basically you get mostly songs from thier first two albums. That's great, but after "Sex Drive," it seems like they just threw stuff in.

This might be good if you're already a fan, but not if you want to get to know the band. This album frankly gave me the wrong impression because I did that. W.A.S.P. isn't all about sex and swearing, and it's obvious if you take the time to go through the actual albums themselves. I want to give it a really good rating, but it just seems like a sloppy work. Heck, the cover art looks like it came from a home printer. If you must buy it, get a used copy. It's simply not worth shelling out the full price.
