Life less lived collection

[doom1000]

Okay, so i couldnt find any old threads about this, and i didnt wanted to resurrect one anyway. (ever seen a zombie thread? its not a pretty sight)

Anyway, have any one in here ben listning to the "Life less lived" collection?
For those of you who dont know about it, its a Box with 3 cd's and 1 DVD, all containing gothic "hit" singles (in lag of better words), from the late 70's til... i dont know, somewhere in the 90's i would quess.

Some of the tracks are:
christian death - romeos distress
bauhaus - shes in parties
siouxsie and the banshees - spellbound
joy division - Dead souls
and much more.

Anyone heard of it? What do you think of it ?
My opinion: If you dont know s**t, about goth-rock, and dont know who the hell Peter Murphy is, but want to learn more, this collection is a GREAT place to start.

I have the A Life Less Lived compilation and it almost never leaves my multi-disc changer.
If I could pick out one "essential" goth CD, I'd say that's pretty much it.

Life Less Lived is possibly the best goth compilation currently on the market. It's not a PERFECT compilation, but it's the best that I've ever come across.
