AMG Review of Who Cares a Lot: Greatest Hits

Chuck Donkers
All Music Guide

The posthumous retrospective Who Cares a Lot? The Greatest Hits proves that despite their success on radio and MTV, Faith No More was anything but a singles band -- removed from the rich thematic contexts of their respective albums, tracks like "Epic," "From Out of Nowhere" and "Digging the Grave" now seem like little more than fragments of much bigger pictures. Of much greater value for fans is the eight-track bonus disc included in initial pressings of the collection -- comprised of unreleased material, demos and live cuts (all of them fascinating), it's highlighted by a cover of the Burt Bacharach/Hal David classic "This Guy's in Love with You."
