The album features a selection of the best Matchbox Recordings bands and artists since the label began in 2000. From the British Army’s only endorsed rock band Groovycide (who went from the barracks to Radio 1 and Q Magazine) to The Treliks who went from the rockabilly underground to Radio 2 and the U.K top 100.
