Is there any point to this box set? Its not even all of their albums, its just 3 quarters of them. There is nothing special like B-sides on there so what is the point?
Its things like this that make me lose a little bit of respect for the band because its just like they are trying to milk every penny out of each album.
I guess its good for new fans but if these new fans REALLY wanted the old albums I'm sure they could buy them without this.
I didn't like Muse from their first album sobought their previous albums easily.
There is inevitably going to be people disagreeing with me but it is just my opinion.

But, it's the record label that have done this, I doubt that band had much say in it. |

You're probably right but I'd still feel the same - that the band are being turned into an over-advertised novelty band (Sex on Fire providing the novelty aspect). To me, they used to be a super cool band who were hard working and played great music and weren't constantly looking for the limelight. I hope the next album brings back this opinion of the band. |

Also, people saying "I might get it, 'cos my copy of Aha Shake Heartbreak is scratched" Why not just buy Aha Shake Heartbreak? The albums on their own are cheap enough these days.
For your health.

I know what you mean re. milking for every penny, but if it encourages those who finally cottoned on and bought a KoL album after liking all the singles (like me, 'cept I bought them all the same day!) to buy the rest, then we'll have less to moan about at gigs when no-one knows the old songs.
Seems like a case of damned if they do, damned if they don't.

I saw it in a record store in London (banglatown somewhere). Don't remember if there was any b-sides on it tho.
