Description:
Featurettes from the decade-old Hard and Heavy program are collected on Rockthology, with volume 1 starring hard rockers Aerosmith, Nirvana, Jane's Addiction, Alice in Chains, the Black Crowes, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Faith No More, and Smashing Pumpkins. Each 5- to 15-minute episode showcases band member interviews, snippets from video clips, and occasional in-studio or at-home footage. Highlights are Aerosmith's Joe Perry candidly discussing his group's drug use, Perry Farrell admitting to creative struggles after signing with a major label, and Smashing Pumpkins leader Billy Corgan bravely exclaiming they'll be around awhile. Otherwise, this ragtag, 85-minute collection isn't thorough enough to satisfy longtime fans and is too "inside" to attract new ones. Cutting between interviews and video clips kills the chance to enjoy either, and the shortest segments (on Alice in Chains and the Black Crowes) are so superficial they'll disappoint everyone. --Kevin Filipski
