Come 2005, the evidence showed that '90s rock radio darlings Bush had been put into carbon freeze -- the group hadn't released a new album since 2001's Golden State, while leader Gavin Rossdale had launched a new group, Institute. So the time would be right for a career-spanning "best of" set, correct? Not quite. You do get the group's hits on the 2005 double-disc Zen X Four, but only as videos on the set's DVD portion (which also includes some behind-the-scenes footage). The audio portion, on the other hand, collects live and acoustic versions of most of the group's best-known early tracks. However, since these are not the versions that ruled MTV during the mid- to late '90s, it cannot be considered a true set of hits. From the perspective of longtime fans looking for the uncommon, Zen X Four works much better. After all, several of the tracks are included more than once, and only hardcore fans will be interested in the "acoustic versions" (which aren't really acoustic -- the volume on their Marshall stacks is just lowered a bit). But one thing's for certain, Rossdale certainly has his Cobain-isms down pat on such tracks as "Everything Zen" and "Machinehead." ~ Greg Prato, All Music Guide
Gotta agree with the overrated talk. He was great, but the level that it's taken to is out of control. If he was still alive I can guarantee people wouldn't be talking about him like he's a god.
Wow!! we're bad mouthing Cobain on Bush album reviews. That tells me one thing, he (Nirvana)was the best band of that time. As far as the junkie comment, what does that have to do with music?!?! So was Ray Charles you a**!!! Stop being ignorant. Cobain isn't overrated, never will be.
REVIEWER, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS COBAIN-ISMS, HE WAS AN OVERRATED JUNKIE, WOULD A COBANIN-ISM BE PUTTING A BULLET IN YOUR BRAIN WHEN YOU HAVE A BRAND NEW BABY GIRL THAT NEEDS YOU?, YEAH SOUNDS RIGHT.
