Review by Brendan Bunting

Backcatalogue by Front 242 is a compilation album that features some of the band's greatest hits from the past. The album is a perfect introduction to the band's music for those who are new to their sound, and a great collection for fans who want to revisit their favorite tracks.

The album features 16 tracks that span the band's career, from their early days in the 1980s to their more recent work. The tracks are a mix of industrial, electronic, and experimental music, with a heavy emphasis on rhythm and beats.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Headhunter," a classic industrial track that has become a staple of the genre. Other notable tracks include "Tragedy For You," "Welcome to Paradise," and "Masterhit."

The album is well-produced and showcases the band's talent for creating catchy, danceable tracks with a dark and edgy edge. The music is intense and energetic, with a sense of urgency that keeps the listener engaged from start to finish.
