Editor's review

Fine, so the Goo Goo Dolls aren't exactly the hippest band on the block. They've got that goofy name, and Johnny Rzeznik's hair is always a bit too perfect. But the Dolls' second greatest hits volume, which includes some stellar covers, reminds us why they've lasted--the rock is crisp and affecting.

Biography

One of the world's most beloved American rock bands, The Goo Goo Dolls, released its twelfth album, "Volume Two," August 19th, on Warner Bros. Records. It is the follow-up to 2007's "Greatest Hits Volume One: The Singles" - the first-ever collection of the band's hits in its 22-year-career - which was released in November 2007. "Volume Two," a two-disc CD + DVD set, is a treasure trove of audio and video destined to be an instant must-have for Goos fans. The 23-track audio CD features several favorite album tracks, including "No Way Out," from "Jed," and a live take of "All Eyes on Me," from "Dizzy Up The Girl." Also included are such rarities as a demo version of their No. 1 single "Iris" and a brand new mix of "We'll Be Here," from "Let Love In." It also includes eight cover songs, including the band's renditions of The Plimsouls' "A Million Miles Away," INXS's "Don't Change," Fleetwood Mac's "I Don't Wanna Know," and live versions of Tom Petty's "American Girl," and Supertramp's "Give A Little Bit" - a track that appeared on their most recent studio album, 2006's gold-certified "Let Love In." The DVD features all 24 of the Goo Goo Dolls' music videos, including their three No. 1 smashes "Name," "Iris," and "Slide," as well as the Top 10 singles "Black Balloon," "Dizzy," "Broadway," "Here is Gone," "Sympathy," "Stay With You," and "Let Love In." In addition, the DVD features six live tracks from their sold-out show at Colorado's Red Rocks Amphitheatre in June 2007, including "Before It's Too Late" (from "The Transformers" soundtrack) and "Better Days," the lead-off single from "Let Love In." The Goo Goo Dolls, which is singer/guitarist Johnny Rzeznik, bassist Robby Takac, and drummer Mike Malinin, have spent the last year and a half touring the world in support of "Let Love In." They performed several shows across the U.K. and Ireland in July, including an appearance at the O2 Wireless Festival in London's Hyde Park on July 6th, 2008.
