This came out in 2003 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
WHO ARE THEY? The kings and queens of the Sub Pop universe.
WHAT’S THIS? An eclectic, 65-minute sampler of 17 cuts from many of the label’s recent releases. The roll call includes Mudhoney (who kick things off with a Stooges-style Sonic Infusion), Sebadoh’s Jason Loewenstein (who serves up a jangly solo Casserole), Hot Hot Heat (who get their groove on with Bandages), and cosmic cowboys Beachwood Sparks (who choreograph a Ghost Dance 1492), among others.
HOW DOES IT SOUND? Like a great starting place for anybody who wants to get acquainted with the sound of Sub Pop.
