Staind - MTV Unplugged (2001)

Underneath the aggression that is Staind lies a raw beauty that makes them one of the few rock bands whose songs take on a new and different power when performed acoustically. Staind once again proved this in front of several hundred fans lucky enough to attend their concert for MTV Unplugged. This DVD includes two performances not seen on the MTV broadcast. Also includes backstage interview footage from the taping, four music videos, behind-the- scenes footage, complete Staind discography, and lyrics. Track listings: Home * Me * Pressure * Excess Baggage * Suffer * Waste * Epiphany * It's Been Awhile * Can't Believe * Fade * Outside * Mudshovel (video) * Fade (video) * Outside (video) * Epiphany (video) * Fade (behind the scenes). ? Product Description

Staind is a very good band

This unplugged is one of the best unplugged that i'd seen, So natural and acoustic May 14, 2007

Staind - It's Been Awhile since I've been so emotionally touched by music.

Over the last few years I've been aware of a band named Staind and I've also recently found over this time I've accumulated a good awareness of Staind music and history. I've grown to find that Staind is not just about depression like some people here mentioned; it's about emotion - strong emotions. Some people express deep emotions that touch at the heart of their souls; Aaron Lewis is sharing his journey through life. I have a deep respect and admiration for this band and their art.

Staind - MTV Unplugged has to be one of my favorite Staind performances on DVD. Check it out, you won't be sorry! April 24, 2006

Horrible... just plain horrible!

Die-hard fans please ignore...

As a musician I have an appreciation for a very wide range of music so I purchase pretty much every music DVD produced. After checking out Staind's MTV UNPLUGGED DVD all I can say is this band and it's music are just plain horrible.

The theme of every song is either based on anger, depression, lonliness, paranoia or any other thing this guy can whine about.

The show is one long depressing song with the same dull tempo and basic chord changes... if you are into that kind of thing I guess this is the best DVD in the world!

Performance notes:

These guys must be pitch deft, the guitars are either out of tune or they are such bad musicians they can't even play this extremely simple music properly...

The singer has a drony voice and sings off key 80% of the time... if you can actually endure the songs it's hard to believe you can put up with the bad singing.

Let's not forget his great personality between songs... basically "ughh... this next song is I Hate Everybody/Life Sucks/My Parents Are Jerks/Relationships Suck/etc...

DVD notes:

Picture is typical of these MTV shows... nothing to write hone about, but a clear 4:3 transfer with adequate lighting.

Sound of 5.1 track is very processed and hollow sounding... stick with the 2.0 track if you actually want to listen to this garbage...

Look for my copy on eBay! September 28, 2005

Warning : this DVD is censored

I feel ripped off and am so angry right now. I can not believe the idiotic censorship on this DVD. The word "" is blanked out of the performance of Mudshovel basically ruining it. And to show how idiotic and senseless this censorship is you can see the word spelled out for all the world to see on the subtitles!!! It gives you that same feeling as when you are watching a good R rated movie on TV and its all hacked up with blanked out dialog. There is no disclosure that the video has been hacked in the description by Amazon. Avoid buying MTV products unless you are an 11 year old's mother. April 29, 2005
