For a best of...why don't they package all their albums in a box set. BTBAM have yet to release a bad or mediocre album. I can't wait for the new album.

Seems they just signed to Metal Blade, so it sorta makes sense for Victory to release a best-of now to capitalize on their catalog. Not owning any of their albums myself, I'd probably buy it if it's not stuffed with live versions of the best songs. As much as I enjoy the band live, there's nothing I hate worse than non-studio songs on a best-of.

Yeah I really dislike "best of..." albums. I guess they serve a nice function for a causal fan or someone looking to get into a band's music.

This should be retitled to "Victory Records to release BTBAM 'Best Of' album for cash grab."

Agree with # 5. Probably owe Victory one last contractual release. These best of things are good for fans new to a band. Good for little else though. So Victory loses BTBAM @ Darkest Hour. Hmmm final nail in the Victory coffin maybe? We can only hope.
