Dry Kids (B-Sides 1997-2005)
The b-side is in danger of becoming a dying art now that the ridiculous rules which govern chart singles have effectively retarded creativity by punishing artists for producing material (multiple format releases, no more than 3 tracks on one CD and 2 on another, the rise of MP3s, falling single sales and rising album sales etcetera, etcetera). These days it seems that too many bands witlessly throw live, acoustic or remixed versions of singles onto b-sides, and fail to use them as a vehicle for creativity and myth-building.
