    Pretty decent shot on "I Want A New Drug" and "The Heart Of Rock and Roll"... I'll need to listen to "Do You believe In Love".

    I'm also planning on giving a listen to the Leche de Tigre and Reggae/Ska RBN tracks...

    No Hip To Be Square? No Back In Time?

    I knew looking too forward to this pack was a mistake.

    But still buying hard.
