    Pros: Everything

    Cons: Not Enough, Could Have Made a Double Album

    Hooray! This compilation is all an average listener to the B's needs. It has it all. The hijinks from the early days and the new tracks with the same kind of quirks. Very nice sounding CD, HDCD encoded...it will blow you out of the room. Crystal ...clear sounding. Nice job! Read more Less

  • All Music Guide

    Time Capsule is an excellent, 18track collection that offers a comprehensive overview of the B52's' career, from their kitschy postpunk beginnings to their unexpected chart success in the early '90s. Along the way, all the big songs "Planet Claire," "Rock Lobster," "Private Idaho," "Quiche Lorraine," "Summer of Love" (in its original mix), "Channel Z," "Deadbeat Club," "Love Shack," "Roam," "Good Stuff" are here, making this an ideal choice for casual fans. For collectors, there are two new cuts ("Debbie," "Hallucinating Pluto") which are fine, but not particularly noteworthy outside of the fact they're only available on this disc. Then again, the very idea behind Time Capsule is to provide a concise introduction for the curious, and on that level, it works perfectly.

Biography

The B-52's

The first of many acts to cement the college town of Athens, Georgia as a hotbed of alternative music, the B-52's took their name from the Southern slang for the mile-high bouffant wigs sported by singers Kate Pierson and Cindy Wilson, a look emblematic of the band's campy, thrift-store aesthetic. The five-piece group, which also included founding members Fred Schneider... Read more
