Edited 2 years agoJust saw on eBay a metal box version of this, numbered 93/204. I did not know this variant existed. Is this documented anywhere here? -
-
Why is the Canadian varient $400 but the US release is far more reasonable, no differences I can see or read about?
-
If only this compilation would be released on vinyl!
Columbia Records, are you listening? -
The Alice in Chains 4-disc box set Music Bank serves as both career retrospective and B-side collection. You get plenty of material from the regular AIC albums, but there is enough bonus material to make the set worthwhile to die-hard fans.
Here's what you get in this box set that you won't find on other AIC releases:
Disc 1 – “Get Born Again” (the only brand new song produced for this set), 3 early demos from the Alice N Chainz days, demo versions of “Bleed the Freak”, “Killing Yourself”, “Sea of Sorrow”, and “Rooster”, and a live track called “Queen of the Rodeo”.
Disc 2 - There are only 3 exclusive tracks on this disc. “Fear the Voices” is an odd one, sounding like Alice in Chains meets the Red Hot Chili Peppers. It also features a demo version of “Junkhead” and a track called “Lying Season”. Despite having just a few new tracks, disc 2 is the strongest in the set, since it contains the most material from Dirt and Jar of Flies.
Disc 3 - This disc rounds out the collection, and features material taken mostly from the band's final studio album. There are a few tracks from the Unplugged album, a few remixes, and the track "What the Hell Have I" which originally only appeared on the Last Action Hero soundtrack. The song "Died" is the only track that isn't available elsewhere.
Disc 4 - This is an interesting item. Music Bank was released before DVDs had completely taken over, so disc 4 is actually a CD-ROM with a couple of the band's videos and some additional multimedia content. It's a decent addition, but one that was made obsolete when the Music Bank DVD was released a couple of years later.
All told, this box set is likely to appeal only to die-hard Alice in Chains fans who want to own every available AIC release. It's a good collection, if a bit flawed. They could have just as easily added a disc or two and collected the band's entire catalog, or just released a single-CD rarities collection (which would have been a lot lighter on our wallets). -
