The first great rock album of the 21st Century was brought to us by four young Mississippi musicians, who managed to capture lightening in a bottle while the music industry was at a crossroads.
From the explosive, anthemic vulnerability of the No. 1 Mainstream Rock track “Kryptonite” to the sinister warning shot of “Loser” and working-class lament of “Duck and Run”, The Better Life reminded us all that connecting with the power of great music can bring people together in ways other artforms simply cannot.
This 2CD will include the original album , some of the band’s early sessions in Escatawpa and exclusive liner notes as well as never-before released versions of four tracks: The Better Life (XX Mix), Kryptonite (2000 Acoustic), Be Like That (2000 Acoustic) & Wasted Me (Studio Version)
