5.0 out of 5 stars Random 1-8 Japanese EP, December 8, 2001

First, This CD is not enhanced even though it says so!
This is a good compilation of early b-sides and unreleased tracks. It has two live track recorded in Amsterdam, wich are amazing & there are three hidden tracks wich are various mixes of Sunburn. The material on this CD is a lot different from there album, but is great. This CD is well worth getting. A bit expensive though, Don't you think?

A very so-and-so collection! Host, Forced In and Do We Need This are all great B-side tracks (Do We Need This is here featured in a rare live version), and also Filip, one of the greatest tracks off Showbiz, is included in a rare live version. That's the good stuff.

On the other hand, Pink Ego Box, Coma, Yes Please and Agitated (this is the rare studio version) are rather dull B-sides, mediocre at the best. And the remixes of Sunburn are even worse, because these with great certainty will have no appeal what-so-ever for common Muse-fans.

All in all, this is not worth the price. Collectors will wanna buy this for the rare studio version of Agitated and the live versions of Filip and Do We Need This, but others would be better off to go collect the host (no pun intended) of different singles from the Showbiz era featuring some good and several not-so-good B-sides. Also, Hoolabaloo will offer a taste of what this record has to offer, with Forced In, Yes Please and the more common live version of Agitated.
