I don’t really think any of the 90s grunge bands can compare to Alice In Chains. Sure, there were some good ones, but for my money, AIC was the cream of the crop. Sooo many good records and good tunes. It was a big time shame when Layne died all those years ago, and I was kinda surprised when I first heard a a few years back that they were planning on returning as AIC with a new singer. Fast forward to now..they’ve just released the video for the first song from their new record (which is titled ‘Black Gives Way To Blue’ and due out in September) and so therefore I’ve heard the ‘new’ AIC today for the first time. I must admit that I’m kinda impressed. New dude sounds a fair amount like Layne and the band doesn’t seem to have skipped a beat. It’s 1997 all over again! The song is a bit too lengthy but it has a cool groove to it and I find myself digging it in a retro sorta way. I can’t find a postable version of the vid yet, but here’s the song..’A Looking In View’. What you do guys think?
