UNBREAKABLE contains 18 tracks that span the band's career and includes more than an hour of music drawn from one EP and five studio albums (two each with Sub Pop and Elektra and one with Columbia). The album also features the debut of two previously unreleased songs -- the newly recorded "I'm A Soldier" and "Magazine," a song written shortly before the band broke up, but left unfinished.
The collection opens with "Retarded" a song from the band's Sub Pop debut Up In It (1990) featuring The Afghan Whigs' original line up -- singer and guitarist Greg Dulli, bassist John Curley, lead guitarist Rick McCollum and drummer Steve Earle. UNBREAKABLE spotlights several songs from the band's two-year tenure at Sub Pop such as the funky wah-wah of "Turn On The Water" "Let Me Lie To You" and "I'm Her Slave" from Congregation (1991) as well as a cover of the Supremes' "Come See About Me" from the EP Uptown Avondale (1992).
The band's time with Elektra is represented by seven tracks including the rocking cuts "Debonair" (a Top 20 Modern Rock track), "Be Sweet" and the title track from 1993's Gentlemen while the dark soul of 1996's Black Love gets its due with "Going To Town," "Crime Scene Part One" and "Faded."
