A collection of great sessions.

"The volume and energy of these recordings cannot compete with witnessing a live Mogwai show, but these recordings are still filled with the same passionate playing that one can expect from them. There are subtle differences within each song that set them apart from their album versions.
The tracklisting was very well chosen; the recording quality and production values are outstanding. Standout tracks include "Hunted by A Freak", "Like Herod", and "New Paths to Helicon Pt. 1".
All in all, a very good listen."
Perfect

"Mogwai simply never sounded this good on a regular LP.
"Hunted by a Freak" and "Stop Coming to my House" sound about 10 times better on this. "Superheroes of BMX" also sounds a lot better. Everything sounds better. All of it slow, brooding, perfect.
This release puts Mogwai on par with GSPYE! in my opinion."
