Alice in Chains is the eponymous third studio album by the American rock band Alice In Chains. Released on November 7, 1995, it was the follow-up to the highly successful Dirt. Similar to Dirt the album's songs focus on heavy subject matter such as depression, isolation, drug use, anger and death
For the new album, Alice in Chains wanted to return to Seattle, and the bulk of the basic tracks were recorded there at Studio X last summer. While there, former Queensrÿche guitarist Chris DeGarmo played acoustic guitar on Drone, which Cantrell was struggling to get just right in the studio. I wrote this spider-chord, weird plucking thing, he recalls. I was fumbling around on it, and he was down there, so I’m like, ‘Fuck, dude, you try i. The band then spent two months in Nashville, where producer Nick Raskulinecz has a studio, and where Cantrell and Duvall focused on vocals and.
Biography by Stephen Thomas Erlewine. One of the moodiest and heaviest of Seattle's grunge bands in the '90s, the band mounted a successful 2010s comeback without late singer Layne Staley.
