I never really got into Alice in Chains that much. I find it interesting that the Big 4 of grunge all had radically different sounds at least musically. Lyrically they were all pretty dark. If they had not come from the same area at the same time I doubt many people would really associate them that much.
Yup. It was definitely the fact they came from the Seattle area that put them together.
I like all four bands, even though I’m not a huge fan of Pearl Jam anymore (although I gotta give them credit for being the only one around now). But their first three albums were great, and 10 is one of my favorite albums of all time.
