    I saw some unknown band called Alice in Chains in San Diego opening for Anthrax, Megadeth, and Slayer on the Clash of the Titans tour in Spring 1991...they broke a few months later and went huge with all the grunge stuff. I also was at their last show here in Kansas City in 1996 opening for KISS on their Reunion Tour.
    Of all Seattle "grunge" bands, Alice in Chains were the most metal and dark.
    This is great!!!

      I honestly don’t even listen to any of the other grunge bands anymore. Thrash, death, Heavy Metal, and metalcore is what I listen to daily. BUT Alice In Chains is an every week play….So you are correct.

    It becomes very noticeable during the solo sections that Slash’s guitar work in some ways is more similar to Jerry Cantrell than it is to other late 1980’s hard rock guitarists. The second solo is almost note for note Slash, yet it is seemingly perfect in this context.

    This is a very relaxed version of a GNR pop song, that is interesting. On a side note : I've had this theory that if Jimi Hendrix had lived to compose heavy metal music with this modern gear , he would have sent everyone that followed in his footsteps back to school.
