The albums of K's Choice haven't always been perfect, but they have generally been enjoyable -- and whether lead singer Sam Bettens has favored hard, gutsy bravado or a more introspective singer/songwriter aesthetic, this Belgian outfit has often brought an attractive sense of melody to the table. Both sides of K's Choice are nicely represented on this 2004 best-of collection, which looks back on the group's 1993-2003 output. 10: 1993-2003 offers many of the essential tracks from that period, including "The Ballad of Leo and Paul" from 1993's The Great Subconscious Club, "If You're Not Scared" from 1998's Cocoon Crash, and "Not an Addict" and "Mr. Freeze" from 1995's Paradise in Me. "Dad" is a heartfelt demonstration of how poignant K's Choice can be, while "I Smoke a Lot" is an effective use of dry humor. The latter doesn't make a case for smoking cigarettes, but is a rather an amusing acknowledgment of a bad habit and an example of Sam and Gert Bettens being able to laugh at their own weaknesses. All of the albums that K's Choice recorded in the '90s or early 2000s are worth owning -- even with their imperfections -- but for the novice, 10 would be the most logical starting point. ~ Alex Henderson, Rovi
