All right fans, here it is. Personally, I never thought I would see the day Alice in Chains would release a best-of album. I didn't know whether I would approve or not, but I was pleasantly surprised with the track-list on this album. All the songs I want to hear from Alice are on here.

To anyone that keeps tabs on these guys, it seems that Layne Staley (vocalist) dropped off the face of the earth. But, for a man that seems impossible to locate, he still sounds absolutely amazing on 1998's "Get Born Again," one of the brand new songs on this compilation. The previously unreleased live version of "Rooster" is seriously impressive.

If you are a fan, this is a must-own. If you just dabble a little in the metal sounds of this 90's giant--this will probably be the only Alice album you'll need. So, throw this in your player, turn it up, and prove to your neighbors that there is truly "Nothing Safe."

I think it's about time that Alice In Chains put together an album with all the good songs from their other albums into one,perfect record. This is the only A.I.C album you need to here all the best of their songs. all of their records are really good, but this one leaves them all in the dust.
