I've been listening to MCS since "I am the movie" was released and have been to see them in concert. The deluxe dvd/cd of "Commit this to Memory" was a definite buy for me, if only for their awesome music videos on the DVD. Their upbeat, catchy, sing-along songs (with the occasional down-tempos) brighten my day any time I'm down, and often times just make me laugh (See: LGFUAD)
Motion City Soundtrack is going to be around for long time.

I can't think of a single thing to complain about for the entire album or dvd. Definitely pick this up if you're a fan of Motion City, or even Blink 182 (Mark Hoppus helped produce the album), New Found Glory, or Farewell. Anyone who is familiar with epitaph records knows that they dont sign bad bands, or release bad albums. Definitely check this one out.

I have been a fan of this band since I saw a video on tv from their previous album. I have never been let down by their efforts. This is a solid album start to finish and I do suggest getting the special edition with the DVD extras! You really get to know the band more every time you pop in the cd or dvd. As with any band, not everyone will get into their music but you'd be surprised how easy you can get hooked.

I wasn't sure about this band (especially after hearing "Everything Is Alright" one too many times), but I love this CD!! The singing is great. Sometimes it's high, and sometimes it's more pop-punk-ish--it's a unique mix (the CD doesn't feel like the same old thing by another band)--and the songs are easy to like right away, even though they're still very different from each other. I'd rate this CD 4 & 1/2 stars, but because the DVD is so complete (it has a lot of live performances, interviews with the band, other footage, and even an appearance by Mark Hoppus from Plus 44...but especially live performances; the DVD was much more than I had expected!), I'll give it 5 stars. It's hard to rate CDs, but if you like any of their songs, I'd recommend looking into this! All I liked was "Hangman" and one of the other ones before buying it, but now I like almost every song on the CD, and even some of the songs that the DVD shows live from their older CD.
