i picked up the wave of mutilation best of cd today, and its very good. its got great sound, and a great list of songs. a lot better than the death to the pixies best of. only thing i would of done different if i had say in it is put In Heaven, and Subbacultcha on it. its great 4ad never seems to dissapoint me.
oh and two questions. in the best of, "hey" has the very very first part cut out. like the "HEY" than the single hit on the bass. i dont know maybe its only on the live versions and ive just been listening to em too much, but i always remember that in there. maybe Jo could help me with that. and also, in the best of they thank a Jo Brooke i think is the last name, and is that the Jo who posts here that works for 4ad or something liek that. ok bye |

yeah, what's up with that missing 'Hey'?
Over all, an excellent best of. I'm sure everyone could suggest two or three songs that they felt it was missing, but you have to admit, what's there is gold.
Only WTF is with the booklet. No cool pictures or liner notes. A FB comentary on each song like on the b-sides what have been boss. But overall, an excellent best of.
Oh, here's a question-what's with pixies best ofs always choosing the single version of gigantic over the album cut? Wasn't it the same with DTTP? I like it, it just seems curious.
Some like wine and some like hops but what I really love is my scotch |

yeah, always i wondered why they used the single version of gigantic on the DTTP. i dont mind it though, i kinda like hearing the gil norton one, and i hate bringing singles in my car, so its cool that its on the best of. i think it would be pretty awsome if they put a cd together of all the different versions they tried of songs. |

The single version is the "popular" version that people heard on radio.. thats why they choose it.
