This cover of Alice In Chains' It Ain't Like That performed by Jerry Cantrell and Nickelback in 2002 packs more meat than a butcher's shop

Nickelback and Jerry Cantrell.

For those surprised last year by Nickelback's relatively heavy song San Quentin, lifted from their latest album Get Rollin', you may perhaps have not been paying close enough attention to the Canadian rockers' past releases. Albums such as 2001's Silver Side Up, for example, has their own fair share of meaty riffs, hidden behind the karaoke-cheese of radio-rock anthems such as How You Remind Me. 

To promote that record, Chad Kroeger and co. hit the road for a trek across the US and their homeland of Canada, recruiting longtime pal, Alice In Chains axe-slinger Jerry Cantrell, as their special guest in support.
