ALICE IN CHAINS

Release Year: 2022
Artist Origin: USA
Style: inspiring dynamic alternative grunge rock

timeless, grandiose sophomore slab [1992] of Seattle's grunge luminaries is a moody, portentous affair, filled with philosophically inspiring, sweeping riffing, precisely layered harmonies and highly emotive, subtly depressive, and ultimately characteristic singing - the pain and insight that went into these twelve dramatic songs make Alice In Chains shine above and beyond most of its rivals, even if it meant cutting themselves open and letting the listener look inside; hands down chrestomatic album also features Slayer's Tom Araya on guest backing vocals; marking the thirtieth anniversary of the album, first time ever - double black vinyl re-issue comes with a sound remastered from original master tapes, and pro-printed double-sided lyric insert
