this release is better than the first'greatest hits'volume, but still falls short of a "five"star LP. Check out a piece of punk history with these 'greatest hits'releases by Dojo Records.

This review is from: Cockney Rejects - Vol. 2 Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

While still a classic 2nd effort by the Rejects it fails to reach the same impact on me as the first album Vol.1. The reason being that some of the songs on here run a bit too long , and some aren't as catchy as the first one which gave it it's impact. However this is the album that contains possibly one of the greatest Oi! songs ("Oi! Oi! Oi!"). The opening track "War On The Terraces" is a great song but doesnt pack the punch for the rest of the album . "In The Underworld" is good but still doesnt quite pack the punch I'd expect. Then from "Hate of The City" to "It's Alright" this album seems nearly perfect..but then tracks 13-15 aren't memorable in any way...but the closing number "We Are The Firm" is a great anthem to close this out with (The Casualties even sampled the chorus in their song "Die Hards"). This is still an awesome classic album that should be checked out despite the flaws I have mentioned , and for the songs "Oi! Oi! Oi!" and "Urban Guerilla" and "The Greatest Cockney Ripoff" it's a must!

Recorded and released only 6 months after the debut of Greatest Hits vol.1 , this 2nd installment proved to be alot better. Where the first one sounded too much like Sham 69 , the band brings their own style more into this one. Features the all time favorite classic track "Oi! Oi! Oi!" recognized as the song penning the label Oi!. Other greats include "War On The Terraces" , "Hate Of The City" , "We Are The Firm"..great stuff
