Basically, I waited 2 years for Bonkers 8, saw it in HMV one day and snapped it up. I was disappointed. Bought 9 on its release, it's a slight improvement over Rezurrection, but I just don't think the quantity of quality tunes is there - as on Bonkers 2, 3, 4, 5 and maybe even 7. I prefer every album 1-7 than the new ones, I'm just not feeling the new tunes as much.
So my question is:
Bonkers 1-7 Vs Bonkers 8-9?
1-7 hands down for me. Anyone of the same opinion? If so, why? If not, why? Prefer the new ones or think old is as good as new...?

The new bonkers arent even hhc anymore.Although I like a lotta the new stuff
djs are spinnin,they dont quite have the same feel as the old bonkers.
Hixxys mixes on bonkers 3+5 are legendery.
The old.But the new stuff (bonkers8+9)isnt that bad.
Its better than anything you'll ever see on mtv anyway.
Im just a bassline addict
Im just a hardcore addict
Im just a dancefloor manic
Why o why cant you just accept it.

you cant really compare the two.
the style of hardcore is very different now than when the others were made.
but i often go back and play the 'older' bonkers, so theyve stood the test of time (altho it only 5 yrs),
maybe the newer ones will do the same?
i wouldnt say bonkers is goin downhill, just evolving with the style at the time.

Old bonkers wins by along way. After bonkers 6 it's like a speeded up trance cd. Still like them but they don't have the same effect as the first ones.

I looked through various Bonkers topics and didn't see one that specifically compared old Vs new. If you think it's a meaningless post you shouldn't reply. But as you had a comment to make your reply was useful!...
I agree with what some people are saying about the older and newer stuff being different styles, think that's what I was trying to say, I prefer the older style of Bonkers. I hope they go back to it, though I do understand the need to evolve...

Hey dude, I realise it was a joke, I was sort of trying to redeem it there by saying your comment was useful. Anyway I've figured how to do this now, so
