Get Born Again - The Alice in Chains thread™

[VinylGuy]

Listened to a few tunes from Black Gives Way To Blue, what a monster of an album. Its massive. I love it.

[Ello Sailor]

I remember (unfairly) expecting that album to suck hard. What a nice surprise that was.

[VinylGuy]

dude, i couldnt believe when i listened to A Looking In View...i was fuuuck those guitarrrssss, fuuuck those vocals....i still have the same feeling every time i put that one on

[psychobain]

better than expected, but IMO nothing touches the Layne era

[liebzz]

I have still never listened to anything post-Layne era. It’s not refusal, I just never quite did - perhaps one day when that damn live album journey finishes.

I will follow and give you my thoughts.

[Leatherhead]

I haven't listened to anything without Layne. Am I really missing out?

[LetMeSleep]

Check the above playlist. Maybe not earth shattering but there's a decent hour of listening there.

Its a very different band, but once you past trough the idea of what AIC was with Layne, the new band is just as awesome. Its a way more heavy and sludgy version of AIC but William is a great singer and guitar player.

The three albums they made are wonderful.

[liebzz]

Yeah, listening to this now as if it is a completely different band though I know it’s not. Much of what I got so far sounds like the logical extension of the self-titled album (I bought the one with with purple jewel case back when). Duvall doesn’t sound as much like a Staley imposter as I expected. He’s certainly got his own voice here. I’m into it.

[VinylGuy]

my self titled had a jewel case that look like yellow i guess? very cool package

[VinylGuy]

Rainer Fog sounds different...kinda like a mix between Self Titled and Dirt.

Dinosaurs sounds super sludgy

[96583UP]

i was not feeling well this weekend and then all the sudden their live album tracks started flooding into my mind and i decided to shred a super hard workout and felt better afterward

[tragabigzanda]

Top 10 maybe?
Hello Morning
Close Captioned

[bodysnatcher]

[tragabigzanda]

[VinylGuy]

im guessing a reprint of JOF, which i dont really care bout as i have the print with Sap from MOV a few years ago...well not a few now that i think about its like 20 years maybe?

I really want Tripod.

Same. I don’t know why they have reissued that one yet. Seems they’re waiting for the 30th anniversary I guess

[VinylGuy]

yeah, i guess but its weird. Hope its not a rights thing. With AIC you gotta know the stuff we got is pretty much what they have so im not expecting a big huge stuff with demos and so

ill be super happy with getting to listen to Heaven Beside You on vinyl
