Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Yeah. so ECHO SCREEN kicks ass!.......2006-04-04

This cd is really good. i think drive thru/ purevolume did a great job putting this together. some of my favorite bands are on this comp. i would definitely suggest you buy it! some of my faves are:

Tie The Rope - The Format
Sesame Smeshame - The Early November
Say Anything - Woe
ECHO SCREEN - RUSHMORE. this has to be the best song that i have ever heard in my life. They are my favorite band and they are going to be huge. There EP "An American Tale" is ridiculously good, and they are even better live. I would advise everyone to go out and get their Ep. They are in the studio now making a new full length LP so everybody be on the look out for ECHO SCREEN!

5 out of 5 stars Just for Echo Screen.......2005-12-17

ok..as with many other reviews, i would lke to say Echo Screen is amazing..maybe becuase there from my town or becuase they no how to make music.There are other songs on hear from signed bands but nothing relates to Rushmore from ES. Just a couple weeks ago they got signed to Rock Out Records. Also i would like to say Jack's Mannequin isint the only SoCo side-project on here.Firescape has the guitar player from SoCo and sings in this new band. Band to no and watch out for ECHO SCREEN.these guys are gonna be huge one day

3 out of 5 stars CAN SOMEONE TELL ME HOW TO ACCESS THE MP3 SONGS ON THIS CD .......2005-09-27

I have not been able to find the MP# portion of this CD. Can someone help and provide the instructions on how to access them.

Thanks

A lost soul

2 out of 5 stars not worth it.......2005-07-23

This is definitely one of the worst cd purchases i've made. The Cd is poorly organized, and most of the music isn't as good as one would think. the songs that ARE worth listening to though, are:
Disc 1:
8. Halifax - "sydney"
11. Say Anything - "Woe"
15. I can make a mess like nobody's business - "The best happiness money can buy"
56. Patent Pending - "Los Angeles"

Disc 2:
1. Hellogoodbye - "Homewrecker"
5. Jack's Mannequin - "Kill the messenger"
8. Matchbook Romance - "My Eyes Burn"

Other than that, this is really a minimal value Cd, in my opinion.

4 out of 5 stars Wish I could give it 5..........2005-06-05

This set of CDs is one of the best ways to be exposed to new music in the punk rock, pop punk, emo, punk, and alternative genres. Drive-Thru managed to get all sorts of bands on these CD's, with a grand total of 145 songs. It's hard to imagine that much music all at once, in fact I haven't yet listened to all of it. So far so good! :)

There is just so much here to listen to... buy this set if you've got a lot of time on your hands!

The music itself is worth a 5/5, you'll definately find stuff that you'll enjoy for a long time. Better yet, you'll find whole new artists you can look into for more great stuff!

The real issue that I have with this compilation is organization. The MP3 portions of the CDs are as poorly organized as a 13 year old's bedroom!

The names of the files are in the form: XXYYYY.MP3, where XX is the track number and YYYY are four letters of the title. It's nearly impossible to tell what song you're playing! The ID3 tags, the things that Winamp uses to get more information about the song (title/artist/cd/year/etc) are all very very messy. Many misspellings on the first CD, most of the artist names are in the "album" placeholder, and the artist comes up as "no Artist". Very many are just plain labelled incorrectly. It's ridiculous!

I used the paper insert to rename them all to their correct names, that took me easily over an hour!

Oh, and to top it off, track #49 on CD1 is just plain missing.

Drive-Thru Records: shame on you!

The music, however, deserves a 5/5. So much variety, so many songs, you're bound to find at least a CD's worth that you really like!
