Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: From 1999's Music Bank box set and its one-CD compilation offshoot, Nothing Safe: The Best of the Box to a 1996 Unplugged CD, the Alice in Chains titles continue to arrive even while the band--and especially reclusive frontman Layne Staley--stagnates. The quartet's heavy, dirgelike music is aging well, but the 10 songs that comprise Greatest Hits are the basic radio hits. Greatest Hits features no new music, no liner notes, no lyrics, no new photos, and no elaborate packaging. Still, for the rock fan, every song on the disc (five of them penned solely by talented guitarist Jerry Cantrell) is a bona fide hit, from the band's earliest, their 1990 breakthrough "Man in the Box," to the lush orchestration of "I Stay Away" to 1995's dark pop gem "Heaven Beside You." Greatest Hits provides a quick fix for newer fans, but with The Best of the Box boasting 9 of Greatest Hits' 10 songs, plus an additional 5 selections. Skip Hits and go for The Best. --Katherine Turman

Ah yes, Alice in Chains. Debatably my favorite hard rock band (either them or AC/DC, if you were wondering). One of the best bands of their era. And distinctive as hell, too. Because they had the tremendously talented, darkly charismatic Layne Staley singing for them. Layne was sort of a modern Jim Morrison: there's something about him that I find oddly intriguing, even though his music is depressing as hell. Him and Jerry Cantrell carved out some haunting two-part harmonies, too. And Jerry could play! In fact, one of the examples of his capabilities is missing here: Rain When I Die. You need to hear that song, even if you're only casually into AIC. There's no substitute for the insane guitar noises he makes during the first minute of the song. ... Read More:

Alice In Chains are one of the greatest Grunge bands in the world. Mellow sounding Alternative rock, it soothes the soul and makes you want to dance and sing. Has a hard edge and like i said also mellow. what can i say besides Nirvana, Alice is up there.

It has 10 of their hits, but The Best of the Box has 15 songs, plus new hit "Get Born Again". So I would use your money for that one. This isn't a bad collection, just incomplete.
