Summary: Excellent but a little morbid
Review: I have been a devoted Chains fan for as long as I can remember. I acutally did not even know they had put out a DVD of their videos until a friend bought me this for my birthday in July. All the video's look and sound excellent, especially with a nice home theatre system, or a decent rack system. The highlights include "Would," "What the hell have I," "Heaven Beside You," and other footage in between.I must caution though, the sad part about this DVD is that you can see the steady decline of Layne Staley, who passed away in Spring 2002. From the beginning he looks mostly normal, but by the time you see the videos from the "tripod" period and the MTV Unplugged, it appears that Staley is fried completely, given his empty stare and unheatlthy look. Buy this if you are a fan of Alice in Chains, or if you like decent metal music.

Summary: A Must Have!! Great sound, if you have a good system.
Review: I have been a fan since the early '90s. I kinda got hooked on them after they had already been around for a few years. So I missed most of the videos that were released on MTV. It was a pure treat to be able to see all these videos for the first time. The only one I had seen previously was "No Excuses". I had the best time cranking the sound system up to the point my 350W sub was going to clip, turn down the lights, and become completely absorbed. The 5.1 mix was really great, with just a few oddities like a cymbal crash coming from some strange direction. The sound quality was much better that CD, you can definitly hear the difference. One note, if you don't have 5.1, make sure you use the 2 channel mix or you will experience the same thing one of the previous reviewers did; missing channels. The sound is so good on this that I actually program my DVD player to just play the videos (cut the behind scenes) and leave my TV off. Then I just enjoy the great audio, just like one of those DTS music CDs. I sometimes prefer the audio only so that I can have the lights off and listen in the dark. As for the videos, they are all very good and fun to watch. I especially like the hard to find ones like "Get Born Again". Go out and get this thing! It is almost cheaper than a CD and has better sound.

Summary: A must in your DVD collection
Review: 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.

Summary: Very Good Music Videos!
Review: I like Alice in Chains' music but I like even more their videos! They are superb! There's a good document in the beginning of this DVD! There's also little one minute pieces (interludes). The first video "We Die Young" is quite OK. The next version is much better! Also "Man in the Box" is awesome! Especially the last seconds where is Jesus with eyes closed (they have been closed...with threads...). "Sea of Sorrow" is quite basic stuff (there's only the band). The videos from "Dirt" are also very good, especially Angry Chair where's f.ex. a burning chair. "Rooster" which tells about a war. "What the..." is a none album track, there's flames! Very hot, hot, hot! "No Excuses", a video about acting. "I Stay Away" is an animated video, a sad circus video. "Grind" is a video where's a old man. The same old man is also in "Get Born Again". "Heaven Beside You" is my fav video. There's a little girl and writings (lyrics), there's very cold in this music video! Very cold! "Again" is also quite good! If you like good music videos or just Alice in Chains, I recommend this one for you! There's also a discography! Cool!

Summary: Awesome Visual history/evolutionary record of AIC
Review: I love this video because it offers the diehards a chance to relive the history of Alice in Chains. We not only get every music video released by this enigmatic band, but we get some home video footage and live performance clips that really bring the experience to life. I highly recommend it to any fan of Alice in Chains: diehard or otherwise.

Summary: AIC collectors should buy this..........
Review: In the start there is about 10 minutes of footage before the band became famous, and between the videos there are clips of the band being silly and having fun. If you are a fan of the band, I would definetly invest in this video. You wont be sorry.
