Greatest Hits

Brings me back to the 90's

It's a ood CD with all of blink-182's most popular songs

This is a Greatest Hits/Best of... collection done right. It has all the big hits that everybody knows padded out with fan favorites. For someone like me who wanted to have the finer moments of Blink in my record collection but didn't need all their studio albums, this is perfect in the all killer no filler sense, plus it takes up less real estate on the vinyl wall. The pressing sounds clean and quiet, which is all I can really ask for from a collection like this. Overall, I'm pleased with this collection.

For me, Blink 182 brings back memories of my youth. The stomach ache I would get building up the courage to talk to the girl I liked, the bummed out state of being when the parents grounded me, or even just feeling small are all feelings that went away when I would listen to Blink 182s music. Mark Hoppus, Tom DeLonge, and Travis Barker helped me to get through high school with their upbeat, sometimes depressing, but always real music. Even now that I'm closer to my 30s and have my own kids and college classes, those feelings from the past rear their heads every once in awhile and listening to this collection of greatest hits makes them all small issues again. All in all, if you grew up listening to Blink 182 and understood what they were talking about, this collection will make you reminisce and lift your spirits. Thank you Blink 182 for all the feels.

Great collection of songs, no skips (clean new vinyls, they have factory grit on them). Only 4 stars because the center stickers aren't centered. Normally I don't care, but this vinyl is transparent, so you see part of the backside of the stickers from the other side.

Only issue I had was someone's hair pressed into my vinyl other then that another great purchase

I've been looking for this CD forever and it's so hard to find in stores so I'm super happy I found it on here and it came earlier than expected which is a huge plus ! I was raised with this type of music my entire life and was lucky enough to go to one of their concerts and I jam to this in my car all the time and feel like I'm back at the concert having one hell of a time lol so highly recommend this product it's a great CD and comes in perfect shape

Album arrived on time and well packed. Condition was as stated excellent and the cover was in very good to excellent shape. Ran it through my cleaning routine and played last night and it sounded amazing. Great mix of blink from early to later years and the colored vinyl sealed the deal!

There are four main punk bands that led us into the nineties - Rancid, Green Day, Offspring and blink-182. Except for blink-182, they're all still going, so while the others may have released compilations, this is a truly comprehensive retrospective because there is no worry of another album to be released after it. As such we can use this compilation to judge blink's previous career as a whole, instead of having to consider future material. Sequenced chronologically bar bonus material, wisely there aren't many songs included from the band's first two albums, Cheshire Cat and Dude Ranch; both of those albums are terribly produced, and no-one in the band could really play. While a few great tunes emerged, some of which are here - 'Carousel,' and in particular one of their career-best tunes in 'Dammit' - most of it was unlistenable dreck. Dude Ranch managed to go multi-platinum, however, and gave them the resources to learn to play and sing by their next album. 1999's Enema of the State, represented here by three of its lesser songs, was a punk classic. Fusing pop with punk is no new trick, but doing it in such an affecting, amusing and simply fantastic fashion is more difficult, and on that album blink-182 had made their first masterpiece. The album tracks, however, are better, despite the high quality of the singles presented here, particularly 'What's My Age Again,' which saw them go global. 2001's follow-up Take Off Your Pants And Jacket was the opposite; a handful of stupendous singles, all included here - with particularly 'Stay Together For The Kids' being a signpost for the future and a great song all round - and then an album's worth of filler. Then there was 2003's untitled album, where the band finally reached maturity and made their second masterwork, a fantastic, eclectic album. This is well indicated by the inclusions from that album, the lovely 'I Miss You,' one of their career pinnacles in 'Feeling This' and the excellent 'Always.' It was a great way to sign off. Though not their best album material, this album is still almost uniformly great. There's also a wealth of non-album songs here. 'Not Now,' while stricly speaking a bonus track on the UK edition of their last album, is still a great song; The Only Ones' 'Another Girl, Another Planet' is decent; 'I Won't Be Home For Christmas' is entertaining and euphoric; while a live take of 'Go,' one of the untitled album's best songs, has pride of place closing everything. However, the holy grail is 'Man Overboard,' the bonus studio track from a previously out-of-print 2000 live album. Speculated to be about ex-drummer Scott Raynor, it's a fantastic juxtaposition of their upbeat riffs and their two vocalists' distinct styles. A brilliant sugar rush, it's always been one of their best tunes. So while this Hits collection - note that it is a Hits, not a Best Of - doesn't have all the best tracks and could be considered as not being comprehensive, it's still utterly brilliant, with very little dip in quality. If you only buy one album, make it this one.

The classic Blink 182 cd, works great, had no problems with this cd!

Auf dieser Platte findet man wirklich die größten Hits. Weckt Erinnerungen an alte Tage und sollte in keinem Plattenregal fehlen!

Disco perfetto che raccoglie tutti i successi di un gruppo che ha fatto la storia.

Es mi banda favorita, eso le ayuda y le perjudica al disco de 2 maneras muy claras para mí, le ayuda porque el material auditivo me encanta desde antes de adquirirlo, pero le perjudica en que es más fácil que le note si trae algún detalle. En general me parece ser una remasterización bastante adecuada pero no TAN notoria, posiblemente me falta una mejor aguja/stylus que ya traigo en planes y tal vez unas mejores bocinas que podrían venir más delante. Aún así tiene puntos muy fuertes, por ejemplo el hecho de que el material con el que esta fabricado tiene uno de los perfiles de ruido superficial más bajos que he escuchado hasta ahora en mi colección ya de uno 20 títulos aproximadamente. La ecualización esta genialmente balanceada, sólo creo que en una canción me pareció ligeramente bajo el sonido al reproducir la pista, que es la última del disco. Este punto me lleva a otro fuerte del disco que es la inclusión de I Won't Be Home For Christmas como track, el cual hasta donde tengo entendido sin investigar jamás había estado en LP y eso fue de lo que más llamó mi atención para adquirir esta colección. Considerando todos estos aciertos (pista extra, masterización especial, 180 gr, muy buen empaque, entre otros) y los muy mínimos detalles que se pudieran considerar negativos (algunos pocos sonidos que aparentan similitud de compresión como en mp3 como la batería, en mi opinión, en Man Overboard), propondría que si quieres un sólo disco de blink en tu colección, que sea esta edición especial y ya tendrás un poco de cada era de blink, con muy buena calidad en el cuando menos 95% del material, si no es que más. ACTUALIZACIÓN (20-09-2017): ya estuve comparando esta versión con otras de blink y creo que este disco junto con el mark, tom and travis show deluxe the srcvinyl son las mejores versiones en existencia de esas canciones (las canciones del dude ranch suenan millas mejor aqui que en el dude ranch deluxe). Posiblemente le siga el self-titled de cerca, y ya se queda atrás el dude ranch. No he escuchado todavía el take off, el enema ni el neighborhoods. El cheshire cat en azul traslúcido suena mejor que el dude ranch pero no es edición deluxe entonces creo que trae más ruido superficial del deseado, tuve oportunidad de escuchar el rojo de dude ranch y suena practicamente igual que el dude ranch deluxe pero con ruido superficial al no ser vinil virgen.
