Love and Rockets` first career-spanning compilation is a treat for listeners who understand that the trio was yet another alternative artist of the `80s (in similar company with the Smiths, the Cure, and Echo & the Bunnymen) capable of impressing with both their LP and 12" output. The trio`s full-length classics, Express and Earth.Sun.Moon, were majestic, ethereal, and exquisitely paced, while their singles of the same period displayed a breathtaking range -- from dark rockers ("Kundalini Express," "Ball of Confusion [That`s What the World Is Today]") to lighter material ("No New Tale to Tell," "Haunted When the Minutes Drag"). Much more than just a hits compilation, Sorted!: The Best of Love and Rockets also includes the best of the band`s album tracks, such as "It Could Be Sunshine," the opener from 1986`s Express, and "Sweet Love Hangover" from 1996`s Sweet F.A.. ~ John Bush
