Perspective
1992–2002 marked the first album appearances of "Big Mouth" (listed here as "Bigmouth"), "Dirty", "Rez" and "Spikee"; all of which had previously only been available as 12" vinyl singles. The version of "Born Slippy .NUXX" included on this compilation is an exclusive edit of the song with a new outro, while "Push Upstairs" is an extended mix that was limited to a 12" promotional vinyl on its original release in 1999. "Cowgirl" appears in the lightly edited form which appeared on Dubnobasswithmyheadman. The full length "album version" of "Moaner" is also included, as opposed to the "long version" used on Beaucoup Fish, which cut the extended outro (this compilation's version of "Moaner" does not fade out, unlike other copies of the "album version"). The original versions of "Dark & Long" and "Born Slippy" were not included on the compilation. A promotional version of 1992–2002 also included the unedited version of "Dirty" and a previously unreleased extended version of "Jumbo", the latter of which would later appear on 1992–2012 The Anthology.
Notably, half of the tracks on 1992–2002 are songs that were used as part of film soundtracks. These are: "Dark & Long (Dark Train)" and "Born Slippy .NUXX", both used in the film Trainspotting; "Rez", as used in Vanilla Sky; "Cowgirl" from Hackers; "Pearls Girl" as heard in The Saint; "Moaner" from Batman & Robin; "Shudder/King of Snake", as used in Biutiful; and "8 Ball", which was featured in The Beach and the only song in the entire set that was not released as its own proper single.
Tim Booth of James has ranked it among his favourite albums.[9]
