The album compiles the singles from "Sweet Donuts" up to the major singles "Linear Motor Girl", "Computer City" and "Electro World", while adding the new song "Perfect Star Perfect Style". Despite the title of the album, the first two independently released singles are not included.

The regular edition placed at #33 in the Oricon charts, while the limited edition peaked at #66. Complete Best re-entered the charts again in 2008, peaking at #25, when their first original album Game was released. The album was recently released on iTunes worldwide along with the other, previously unavailable, albums of their career.
