Review by Lindsay Schoonover

Heaven Hell The Very Best Of The Mekons by Mekons is a must-have album for any fan of punk or alternative rock. The album is a compilation of the band's greatest hits, spanning over three decades of their career.

The album features a mix of upbeat punk tracks like "Where Were You?" and "Ghosts of American Astronauts," as well as more introspective and emotional ballads like "Millionaire" and "Last Dance." Each song on the album showcases the band's unique blend of punk, folk, and country influences, creating a sound that is both raw and heartfelt.

The Mekons have always been known for their politically charged lyrics, and this album is no exception. Tracks like "Empire of the Senseless" and "Thee Olde Trip to Jerusalem" tackle issues of war, capitalism, and social injustice, while still managing to be catchy and fun to listen to.
