Outsider / In: The Collection is a compilation album by Luke Haines, also featuring materials from his time in The Auteurs and as Baader Meinhof, on 2 CDs. It was released in 2012.
Critical reception
The album received generally positive reviews. Jaime Gill, writing for the BBC, described Haines as one of England’s greatest songwriters, but that most of his early brilliance had been delivered under The Auteurs, while Nick Neyland, writing for Pitchfork, described him as a complex character, and noted the cover was "hideous", but perhaps it was a deliberate artistic choice. The inclusion of two tracks from The Auteurs vs μ-Ziq was noted as a strange choice. The inclusion of only one song from How I Learned to Love the Bootboys was noted as "disappointing".
