Alice in Chains (AiC) is an American rock band from Seattle, Washington, formed in 1987 by guitarist and vocalist Jerry Cantrell and drummer Sean Kinney, who later recruited bassist Mike Starr and lead vocalist Layne Staley. Starr was replaced by Mike Inez in 1993. William DuVall joined the band in 2006 as co-lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist, replacing Staley, who had died in 2002. The band took its name from Staley's previous group, the glam metal band Alice N' Chains.

I don’t know why, but it gives me a sense of joy seeing how AI just can’t really replicate Layne’s face or his voice

Rainer Fog is like the inverse of tripod.

Both the 3rd album of their respective Alice in Chains eras. Both recorded at Bad Animals. Tripod was a gloomy end of the band era, while RF has a melancholy optimistic beat, looking.towards the future while putting the past to rest.

We all know Jerry and Chris, but is this also David Draiman from Disturbed?

The first time I saw this photo was in 2002 soon after Layne died and this was at his memorial service. I immediately recognized Jerry as well as Chris (R.I.P.) but have never been able to figure out if this was David Draiman from Disturbed.

Where can I find the best quality version or mastered of the Live Marquee show from 1990?

This show is insanely good probably with some of Layne’s best vocals period. Was wondering where I could look to find a good high audio quality version of the show, versions of Love Hate Love, Man in The Box, and We Die Young Are absolutely insane to me. Anything helps thanks (:

What track number is Down in a Hole on your Dirt album?

This isn’t interesting at all but I always thought my CD was in a different order than most. It’s track 12 on mine.

Just kinda talkin

I’m pretty new to AIC, I was introduced to it by my dad, and my friends. I have listened to most of their music, and two standouts have been Whale & Wasp and Brother. I don’t think they were the best songs of AIC’s discography, but especially with whale & wasp, I thought it was cool they were able to write a story without music. And with brother, it felt different from the rest. I wasn’t really a fan of Sap, but brother was definitely an interesting one.

Recommend me 90s songs like I Stay Away

I just love the nostalgic feeling I get with this song. The 12 string and Layne and Jerry's harmonies just sound so melancholic, I love it. I need more 90s songs that have this psychedelic and yet sad sound to it.

EDIT I'm looking bands besides AIC and Mad Season because I know and love all of their songs. I want to find songs from other bands...
