Background

edit

The album follows ten years after the band released their first greatest hits album, Believers Never Die – Greatest Hits, in November 2009, which featured the band's singles from 2003 to 2008 and two new tracks, and was issued as they went on hiatus.[7]

Composition

edit

The album contains eleven previously released singles from the band, including two unreleased tracks. Volume Two compiles hits from the band's initial post-hiatus work, consisting of 2013's Save Rock and Roll, 2015's American Beauty/American Psycho, and 2018's Mania, which took a noticeably more pop and pop rock approach.[8] The album also contains the single "I've Been Waiting", a collaboration with artists Lil Peep and iLoveMakonnen.
