2.0 out of 5 stars For Completionists/Those Without Songs For The Front Row, 19 Jul 2004
I was surprised to see Anthology in the list of Ocean Colour Scene's releases, given that it was released barely a year after their Best Of compilation Songs For The Front Row. Granted, Anthology has a disc of B-sides and a couple of extra tracks, but these aside, I'd estimate that this is merely a cynical record-company controlled release to make up for the fact that OCS' last album, North-Atlantic Drift, sold poorly.

So, if you're looking for an Ocean Colour Scene Best Of/Greatest Hits, or if you're an OCS super-fan, you may as well go for this. If you've got Songs For The Front Row, I really wouldn't bother. For a better effect, try an album by The Jam and don't look back.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Band of Two Halves, 29 Sep 2007
By Mr. J. A. Smith "thetoot" (Blackwell) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is good catch-all album to investigate if you have a casual interest in Ocean Colour Scene. It contains the main lead-off singles and a selection of b-sides which give a fairly good overview of the band's output.

The real benefit of buying this over the previous best-of is the second disk which contains some cracking tracks that have not been formally collected before. Hello Monday is a personal favourite of mine but there are some other really excellent songs that come largely from the singles off Marchin' Already.

If you are of the opinion that OCS are better, not as a Britpop collective, but more as a Roots/Folk groups, then this will be right up your street. I for one certainly think that their best, most inspiring work, is done acoustically. If you have seen Simon Fowler play live, you may also feel the same way.
