An under-rated band's singles collection

(4 out of 5 stars)
"This release not only compiles the original World In Your Eyes collection (Which compiled the 16 Dreams and Spinning EPs) and the Dual/Eternal compilations (Which compiled the Black Sun and Collision EPs), but it also compiles the Arc-Lite Single, the promo-only Prisma Uber Europa live EP, and some previously uncompiled material.
The first disc is probably the most unique sounding of Loop's releases in that it sounds more akin to what Spacemen 3 and The Jesus and Mary Chain were doing, but with a more krautrock-like streak to it. The next two discs are more indicative of Loop's sound and include the classics Collision, Crawling Heart, Arc-Lite and a great cover of Can's Mother Sky. The sound quality is much improved from the previous compilations. My only complaint is that Robert couldn't properly remaster the Sniffin Rock version of Pulse, so that track is still left uncompiled."
