Kick. Snare. Hat. Ride.
Not sure if there are any grunge followers here, but Alice in Chains released a new album, but without Layne Stayley of course. This to me, even if their leader isnt there, is an emotional album. During my youth I used to absolutely LOVE their music and lyrics.
Big grunge fan, growing through my teens in the early 90s - also a massive AIC fan!
Given it a few listens and its growing on me. Think its pretty dark, but good to hear they have tried to retain the 'grunge' style, with lots of chugging guitars.
Think DuVall is ok and though he'll never have the frontman presence or unique voice of Staley, his voice is ok for a modern rock band.
Wonder if STP will get round to making a new record - and if Soundgarden reformed I would go mental!
