The collection follows the chronology of the albums almost without exceptions, presenting us with most of the hits that made the fortune of the band with the Shakespearean name. It’s a pity for the absence of "Public Enemy #1", whose guitar loop has been plundered multiple times and could have replaced the non-transcendental "Piece Of Your Action".

The album, despite the miraculous help of the studio, is horrible, so don’t even try to download it, you’d just be wasting your time. Bill Kaulitz is a boy, moreover without a voice, who manages to be overshadowed even by the least pulsating bass of his friend Georg Listing during the live performance.

This album is one of the greatest of all time, direct, moving, dedicated to the memory of a friend. ‘Hunger Strike’ is a chorus repeated four times where the voices of Vedder and Chris blend, chase, and combat in a crescendo of pathos.
