The Best Yet is an upcoming "greatest hits" release from the alternative rock band Switchfoot, scheduled for a November 4, 2008 release.[1]

Columbia Records, the band's former Major Record label, will be releasing the record, with heavy input concerning the tracklist coming directly from the band itself. "We want to make sure if it's got our name on it (that) it's a product we like," lead singer Jon Foreman said. "so we're trying to steer (Columbia) in the right direction."[2] A tentative tracklisting was announced August 20, 2008 [3], but the official tracklisting was announced on the band's official message boards by Switchfoot bassist Tim Foreman. [4]

An accompanying DVD is set for release as well. It includes music videos, along with the band's audio commentary for each video.
