ALICE IN CHAINS Featured On A Hilarious Video With Cameos By Lars Ulrich, Rob Trujillo, Duff McKagan & More!

ALICE IN CHIANS have released a documentary called "AIC 23". The doc was produced by Alan Poole, a Film Studies Professor at a community college. "AIC 23" is a tongue-in-cheek film about Alan Poole’s attempt to provide some insight on the life of the band today, but with little luck reaching them, he then opts to interview other “musicians” who may or may not have been influenced by the band.

The doc also features cameos by METALLICA's Lars Ulrich and Rob Trujillo, HEART's Ann and Nancy Wilson, PEARL JAM's Mike McCready, SOUNDGARDEN's Kim Thayil and LOADED's Duff McKagan.

Watch ADRENALINE MOB Tracking Their Cover Of HEART's "Barracuda"

World-renowned ADRENALINE MOB drummer Mike Portnoy comments on the bands decision to cover HEART's classic song "Barracuda" on his bands NEW cover album 'Coverta' (available now):

“I picked this track. I always thought this was a killer song and would make for a great modern-Metal update. I produced a demo for my wife's old Thrash band Meanstreak back in the early 90's and they covered this but it was never released, so I thought it would be great one for us to Mob-up! There's very few male singers that could tackle Ann Wilson's incredible vocal range, but I had a hunch Russell would kill it and sure enough, he did!”

Here is video footage of ADRENALINE MOB tracking "Barracuda", courtesy of Loudwire







The tracks on Coverta are:

1-High Wire- Badlands
2- Stand Up and Shout- Dio
3- Break on Through- The Doors
4- Romeo Delight- Van Halen
5- Barracuda- Heart
6- Kill the King- Rainbow
7- The Lemon Song- Led Zeppelin
8- The Mob Rules- Black Sabbat

ADRENALINE MOB is: Russell Allen (Symphony X), Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater), and Mike Orlando (Sonic Stomp)
