Something else

"Indeed a little extra for diehards and new fans alike, the Cranberries' Something Else serves as both a great primer to the band's classics and a suitable greatest-hits collection. Like Tori Amos' orchestral reworkings on Gold Dust, this release shines a fresh light and decades of hindsight on the Irish group's ten biggest singles, reinterpreted here with the string quartet from the Irish Chamber Orchestra ... Something Else is worthwhile for the faithful, offering new spins on songs that they likely know by heart, and is an easily digestible snapshot of their 20th century output for those in need of a reminder of the beloved Limerick group's legacy".

"If Something Else is a foreshadowing of whatever sonic concoction of newer materials that The Cranberries is working on for their next proper album, then there is so much more to look forward to. In the meantime, rejoice and celebrate the return of one of Ireland's finest songsmiths with a reworking of some of their beloved tunes. The Cranberries are definitely back, couch and all!".
