This is a good gift to your friends to introduce the band, and after they heard this compilation, give them the Queen is Dead or the best... then, wait until they realized how great the band was....

value of covers (Score:1)
Some covers are plainly bland, uncreative and blasphemous but imitation is always done in art. What I think is interesting is the way that the songs are approached. Some are very faithful, yet some are completely unrelated and stylisitically distinct from the original recording..
Either way, the music has been an influence. You can't dismiss bands from wanting to play covers or stop it from happening altogether. How creatively limiting would that be??

1) These bands are not emo. Rites of Spring and Native Nod = emo. Cursive = not emo.
Calling these bands emo is analogous to calling bands like Good Charlotte punk... it might be the common conception, but it's just not true.
2) Walter Walter(now known as Walking Concert) is a great band. I saw them last week and they were excellent, as is their new album Run To Be Born. I can't wait to hear their version of Ask.
