Alice in Chains: Music Bank: The Videos

Great dvd and plays well

what a great band, and very original

Music 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 decade there are some videos on this DVD that I had never seen before. I've read some complaints about the sound quality, but didn't experience any difficulties myself. This DVD looks and sounds terrific.The bonus material:There's really nothing in the way of "special features" on this DVD, but there is plenty of bonus material. The DVD starts off with a short promotional video that featured the band pre-Facelift. The songs they're playing are from their Alice n' Chainz days, and can only be found on the AIC box set. It's a fascinating way to start the DVD, as it provides a look at the band when they were just starting out. There are also several musical interludes throughout the disc that feature lots of previously unseen live and behind the scenes footage.The verdict:Buy it already! If you're an Alice in Chains fan, this is a must-own DVD. Since vocalist Layne Staley's death, this video collection also effectively serves as a memorial to his troubled life and creative spirit.

This is a tremondous watch especially if you are an AIC fan. It contains all the videos from the 1990s era and is entertaining, nostalgic and fun. The home footage shots of the band before some of the videos is a nice light relief from the darkness of the songs as the band are messing around and enjoying themselves which shows that the band had some fun during those early days. I enjoyed most of the videos but if I had to choose my favourite ones it would be 'Angry chair' and 'Get born again', the latter a bizarre abstract video featuring frankenstein-esque monsters that is surreal but entertaining.Maybe in the future they will release an updated version of this DVD as the band have released two albums since without Layne Staley and they have made some pretty cool videos for 'Check my brain' and 'Stone' but that is just a hopeful wish! I would definately recommend this DVD even if you are a casual listener or just getting into the band for the first time as it's well worth a watch especially at the price its currently going for!

I totally recommend this DVD for any Alice in Chains fan! You get all the promo vidoes and lots of fun outtakes too and a fun documentary at the start when the band were still 'hair rock' I assume! You can hear and see how their sound evolved over the years. I didn't get to see alot of these promos back in the day so it's great for me to have this to watch.

Fab set of videos for an excellent band! Alice in Chains rock!

Can't beat this for the price, it's all the videos but some really nice bonus/rare footage from the early days of Alice in Chains

I brought this Alice In Chains DVD from Amazon a few weeks ago and its totally amazing for the price. Its got all the Alice In Chains Promo Vids which are awesome, a home video of the band at the start of the dvd and also clips of other footage in between the videos. I hope 1 day Alice in Chains release a live dvd of their tunes, that would be fantastic
