Aspect Ratio: 1.33:1Audience Rating: NR (Not Rated) Binding: DVD EAN: 0074645020891 Format: Best of, Color, Dolby, DVD-Video, NTSC Label: Sony Languages: Manufacturer: Sony MPN: D50208D Number Of Items: 1 Publisher: Sony Region Code: 1 Release Date: August 28, 2001 Running Time: 94 minutes Studio: Sony Theatrical Release Date: 1999 Editorial Review: Amazon.com: That Alice in Chains were, in the early 1990s, routinely bracketed alongside Seattle counterparts Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden as exemplars of grunge always had more to do with geography than reality. Alice in Chains were a heavy metal band, pure and simple. And like most successful heavy metal bands, they attracted an unusually devoted fan base, who will be well rewarded by this generous 94-minute compilation. Music Bank contains all Alice in Chains' videos, plus the kind of curios that suggest that someone, somewhere, put some thought into this. The clips are broken up with grabs of on-the-road footage shot by the band members themselves, and the program begins with a local television documentary made about them before they'd signed their record deal: the scenes shot in the kitchen of the house they were sharing at that point are probably best avoided by the faint-hearted. --Andrew Mueller Description: Finally available on DVD, Music Bank: The Videos features all of Alice in Chains' award-winning videos, even the rare early version of "We Die Young" and the uncut version of "Rooster." As a bonus, this 95-minute compilation includes 10 minutes of behind-the-scenes home videos of the band in the studio, on stage, backstage, and everywhere in between. See the early years of Alice in Chains with a hometown TV documentary on the band's life prior to singing with Columbia Records, featuring performances of the rare songs "Social Parasite," "I Can't Have the Blues" and "Queen of the Rodeo." Songs: We Die Young (2 versions), Man in the Box, Sea of Sorrow, Would?, Them Bones, Angry Chair, Rooster, What the Hell Have I, Down in a Hole, No Excuses, I Stay Away, Grind, Heaven Beside You, Again, Over Now (MTV Unplugged), Get Born Again.

 Rating: - Nothing betterGot these two babies and i'm hooked. I watch them piously.Got them as expected in three days, and i have nothing to complain about. Rating: - Superb Sound!This DVD is simply amazing. The sound quality is just insane. You can really tell the difference between a regular CD and 5.1 Dolby Digital DVD quality. The remastering job they did for this DVD is flawless. You can hear notes you wouldn't be able to hear on a CD. It sounds as if the band were playing right in front of you. This DVD is just perfect. Rating: - Excellent AnthologyMusic Bank: the Videos has everything an Alice in Chains fan could hope for in a video anthology. Alice in Chains left behind a powerful musical legacy, thanks in large part to the dynamic and often disturbing videos featured on this DVD. The main program: This DVD features the complete video collection by the band, as well as some interesting behind the scenes footage. The videos are as visceral and moving today as they were in the 90's, and despite all the MTV I watched in that ...

In a way it answered so many questions. What an experience? To watch the bands video clips back to back, told the story of the band and ultimately Layne's last years. I can't imagine getting the same perspective sitting there watching music video clips on TV over the years. Here you saw the talent grow continuosly, coupled with the rise peak and fall of Layne ...

Nice package for the money, and a great way to remember one of the best bands ever to grace our ears. |
