so 12 years after thier last studio album was released and after about that many years of not listening to the radio (do they even get played on the radio anymore?) I can listen to alice in chains again and really enjoy them. WTF sure they are a part of my childhood and i must have listened to dirt about a million times when i first got it on cassette, and that burnt me out on them. I didn't really like them much after that. i appreciated them and i didn't really hate them but i sure didn't go out of my way to hear them. Now i am watching my videos dvd of them (which i sort-of watched 5 years ago when i bought it) and these guys are REALLY good. i am enjoying the hell out of revisiting my favorite grunge bands. whats next pearl jam? i don't know if i am quite ready for that yet, but maybe some soundgarden... that sounds nice. after watching part of Singles (I'll post a review when i finish it) last night it really got me in the mood to listen to that era of music. Yeah soundgarden rules. well badmotorfinger anyway. I don't think i could listen to spoonman and enjoy it yet.
These videos are pretty damn amazing for the alice in chains songs... or maybe its just compaired to the rush videos.
wierd i wonder when this will be considered classic rock. when kgon starts playing alice in chains im gonna cry.
