    Thumbs down B-Sides on singles

    I'm annoyed when bands release singles which have no original B-Sides on them at all.
    Like The Rakes' recent release "The World Was A Mess But His Hair Was Perfect". Even though it was a vinyl-only release, here are the tracklistings for both vinyls:

    Gatefold:
    1. The World Was A Mess But His Hair Was Perfect [Radio Edit]
    2. The World Was A Mess But His Hair Was Perfect [Tronik Youth Remix]

    Clear Sleeve:
    1. The World Was A Mess But His Hair Was Perfect [Live Zane Lowe Session]
    2. Trouble [Live Zane Lowe Session]

    No original material at all.

    i hate bands who release cd singles with only the original song and a mix of live tracks and remixes. it's so lazy.

    arctic monkeys are best for b-sides, all their singles off the new album have 3 original b-sides.

    What's also annoying is when bands release a song with a b-side which you think is a b-side but the same version is on their forthcoming album.

    yeh i hate it when its just a radio edit or a version without the lyrics.
    i love it when the b-side is something completely different to the band's normal sound

    Yeah, those remixes are AWESOME.
    Remix B-Sides everyone should get their hands on:
    The Maccabees - X-Ray (Filthy Dukes Society Remix)
    The Maccabees - X-Ray (South Central "For Those With Eyes To See" Remix)
    Klaxons - Atlantis To Interzone (Crystal Castles Remix)
    The Rakes - We Danced Together (Jape Remix)
