Same here!

Some NWOBHM came in today:

Mendes Prey - The Never Ending Road
Hollow Ground - Warlord
Black Rose - The Early Years & More - Remastered

Warrant - Ultraphobic
Warrant - Belly To Belly, Vol. 1
D:A:D - The Overmuch Box: Twenty Five Years of D:A:D*

*Now this is the way to do a discography box set. 11 full albums, some of which have been OOP or never before on cd, a 12th disc of rarities and b-sides, a 164-page full color, glossy booklet with photos, liner notes, lyrics, etc. in a nice, sturdy box. All of D:A:D's material up to 2009. And what a weird bit of material it's been. Theses guys are all over the map, musically speaking.

Another trip to the home office today, means another stop at the record store on the way home (and a bonus side trip to Taco Bell to boot!):

Twisted Sister - Come Out and Play
Deep Purple - Burn

I knew this came out but I also knew how all over the place this band can be (not everything they've done sounds like "No Fuel Left For the Pilgrims") as you've pointed out.

What is your overall impression of the set and is it worth it?

My first D-A-D album was No Fuel Left For the Pilgrims. My second was Everything Glows, which made all desire to buy another D-A-D album disappear.

Similar to my experience. But I've heard tracks here and there from other album that I liked.
