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

Greatest Hits from Alice In Chains 3 out of 5 stars
I guess I should have gone with "Nothing Safe". Only half of the smash hits from Alice in Chains are found in "Greatest Hits." Yes, Man in the Box and Rooster are featured here, but "Nothing Safe" has more songs. After hearing this CD, however, the next time I'm interested in a rock band, I'm going to have to buy all of their official albums. Alice in Chains is one of the ultimate grunge/metal bands of our time, and I don't think a compilation album, especially "Greatest Hits", is appropriate. I'll ... Read More
