The Crucial Collection is a compilation album by Look Mexico, released on February 12, 2008 on Lujo Records.^[1] The disc re-releases the songs found on The Crucial EP (where the album's name is taken from) and the So Byzantine EP, and a selection of b-sides and remixes, as well as revised versions of songs taken from their debut, This Is Animal Music, with a more polished-sounding mix.^[2] The compilation draws fans into the older Look Mexico sound, and accusations of "ripping off" Minus the Bear have occurred frequently, as Look Mexico cannot produce an original sound. ^[3]
