5STUDIO ALBUM  Oct 23, 2008
It might sound like a greatest hits album but it's not, it's a new studio album from Warrant and it rocks. Features 3 new original songs: "Jones", "Southern Comfort" and "Bad Tattoo" and 9 newly recorded versions of previous Warrant songs. Heaven '99' and I Saw Red version 2 are almost better then the original versions. Also as a bonus there are 4 dance remixes of Warrant tracks.
Not sure why some people are upset that most of the songs are redone, because they also complain about to many compilation albums, and at least this album offers something new.

There is also an import version of this album with a different title "Most Wanted", exactly the same except the 4 bonus remixes are replaced with 4 cover songs.

4Greatest Re-Recorded  Jul 18, 2006
I highly doubted I was going to like this album at all when I first heard that it was there greatest hits re-recorded. But wanting to hear some more Warrant then what I already had, I got a few more of there albums I didnt have.

After hearing those absolute stink-bomb albums they released, Ultraphobic and Belly To Belly, I figured they had screwed up completly and where going to perform these re-done songs in a grundge/alternative way.

Thats not the case tho!

I guess Warrant realised that changing direction to keep up with the trends is a stupid idea, and they realised that they are a hard rock band. They said after the second album (cherry pie) that they wanted to be a heavier sounding band, but the grundge and alternative direction was a stupid move.

Now they realise they're a hard rock band and they can play hard rock a little heavier, and so that's what they have done on these re-recordings. Song's like Cherry Pie and Down Boy's sound pretty much the same, just in a harder way then the the pop-metal way they had before. Some song's I liked the new version of like "Heaven", "Uncle Toms Cabin" and "I saw Red" ... sure, I preffer the originals to all of these songs, but they sound OK in there new form.

Some song's I didnt like the new rework on, especialy 32 pennis. I dont know what the hell they where thinking at the end of it, but it changes riff about 100 times for no reason and just doesnt fit together. I dunno, maybe Warrant where so sick of that song they decided to trash it or something?

The new song's they wrote are pretty good. There soooooooo much better then the Ultraphobic/Belly to Bell s###.
- Jones' - I'm not sure about that one, it's kinda catchy but didnt really make that much sense to me. I'd have to listen to it more to get a better opinion.
- Hollywood So Far, So Good - It's OK, same as the first one, it needs a few listens to, but it's decent.
- Bad Tattoo - I like, i can relate to it.
- Southern Comfort - I think this is the best song they have written in years. I THINK it's about a hooker who doesnt like what she does, but she does it for the money and the booze helps her day to day... I could be wrong, I havent looked for the lyrics, but none the less, good song and shows Warrant's talent had'nt comepletly faded to black.

1This just plain SUCKS  Jun 12, 2006
I bought this thinking it would be a good greatest hits album, it had all the good Warrant songs I wanted on one disk. They're all there all right, but re-recorded now with the current band lineup. They completely lack any of the energy that the original versions had. Cherry Pie and Down Boys are all at a slower, geriatric tempo and the new dude dumbs down Heaven to fit his vocal range, plus it's "unplugged". And the remix versions are just plain useless. Don't spend a minute on this unless you like, as another reviewer put it "a more raw sound".
BAD BAD BAD

2So it's a redone  Apr 05, 2003
Well this is not a best of, songs are redone eventhough it doesn't say it on the cover, what a rip off! Still have to agree they are pretty well redone, many songs are just like the originals only better produced, but still. What I really don't like about this album are songs picked on it. If I'd get to choose 12 songs from them I'd take max half of these, where are songs like Sure feels good, Machine gun or Inside out and all the songs from their hardest album Ultraphobic? So if you like 80's hard rock and heavy, don't judge this band for this album, they do rock too.
