Customer Reviews: Total numer of reviews: 32 Average rating: 5.0 "A must in your DVD collection" I just bought this DVD yesterday. After seeing it a couple of times I have to say it is one of the greatest compilation of videos I've ever seen. Alice In Chains is one of my favorite bands, and it's sad that they're not together anymore. This DVD takes me back to my grunge days when I was still in High School. It's got 17 videos plus a little documentary and some clips of the band between videos. It also has a complete discography and videography (only missing Greatest Hits, and that's because that one was released last month), so you'll know if you're missing any of their recordings. It's a great DVD, and I recommend it to any fan and any person who likes rock music, 'cause that's what this is, one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Get it. Trust me. You won't be dissapointed. "alice in chains - best band ever" i bought this on video, i didnt realise it was going to be released on dvd, i wish i`d known as id rather have it on dvd. it contains lots of really cool videos throughout alice in chains`s career. I wish this band was still together id give anything to see them live!! anyone who likes the seatle music scene buy this dvd your in for a real treat!! "This is what you want!" Editing this review because, well, I wrote some pretty lame things, but its quality still stands after a year of owning it. There are small clips scattered throughout the video after each music video, but this is the General content you will find (in order): King 5 Documentary (short documentary about how the band started, Some nice clipps of the bands early days) "We Die Young" video (rare art institute of Seattle Version) "We Die Young" video (normal version) "Man in the Box" video (normal version) "Sea of Sorrow" video (normal version) "Would?" video (normal version) "Them Bones" video (normal version) "Angry Chair" video (normal version) "Rooster" video (full un-cut version) "What the Hell Have I" video (normal version) "Down In a Hole" video (normal version) "No Excuses" video (normal version) "I Stay Away" video (normal version) "Grind" video (normal version) "Heaven Beside You" video (normal version) "Again" video (normal version) "Over Now" video (taken from MTV unplugged) "Get Born Again" video (normal version) "Excellent sound, picture and content." Having been a big AIC fan for some time I was looking forward to this compilation and must say that I wasn't disappointed. If you own a decent home cinema setup with a DD5.1 amp and 6 speakers you are in for a real treat. Most of their classic songs are included here and all have been remixed into sexy DD 5.1 (there's also a PCM stereo track). All sound superb though a couple of the remixes aren't as good as they might have been. The majority of the videos are excellent and have stood the test of time very well, although some are now a bit long in the tooth yet still retain a certain novelty value. The addition of about 15 minutes worth of the band's own home movies are excellent and provide a genuine and hilarious insight behind the scenes. Overall this a very worthy purchase and comes highly recommended - especially if you like your 5.1 music turned up loud. Now if only Foo Fighters and Aerosmith would get their acts together and bring out the same sort of compilation. "One of the best home videos ever made" Without a doubt one of the best home videos ever made, "Video Bank" captures Alice in Chains greatest accomplishments, their videos aren't just music clips, but forms of fantastic art. The documentary in the beginning is pretty cool and you get to see AIC before they went big, they were just a humble bunch of guys wanting to play music. Every one of the videos are great, but the standouts for me personally are "I Stay Away" and "Grind". AIC will always have a special place in my heart, and if the band is indeed gone, with this video they'll live on forever.
