À propos de cet audio

Alice in Chains was the first of grunge's big four - ahead of Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden - to get a gold record and achieve national recognition. With the charismatic Layne Staley behind the microphone, they became one of the most influential and successful bands to come out of the Seattle music scene. But as the band got bigger, so did its problems. Acclaimed journalist David de Sola follows the members from their inauspicious beginnings at a warehouse under the Ballard Bridge through the history of the band, charting:

The local hair metal scene in Seattle during the 1980s.

How drugs nearly destroyed the band and claimed the lives of Staley and founding bassist Mike Starr.

Jerry Cantrell's solo career and Mike Starr's life after being fired from the band.

The band's resurrection with William DuVall, the Atlanta singer/guitarist who stepped into Layne Staley's shoes.

Based on a wealth of interviews with people with direct knowledge of the band and its history, many of whom are speaking on the record for the first time, Alice in Chains will stand as the definitive Alice in Chains biography for years to come.

This book was well researched and read however at least half the book dealt with heroin and its massive impact on the band and Seattle music scene. It would have been nice to learn more about Jerry and stories around the creation of the music.

Decent book on AIC but centred on Layne and heroin.

The biography although didn’t have a lot of support via the band and/friends. Enjoyed how the author focused on other important people other than Lane Staley. Such a tragic end to many people close to the band. Great read!

Very thorough

As one of the first bands to bring the Seattle music scene to the mainstream. This book gives a pretty good account of events. Mostly based on Lane’s troubles it does in detail give a pretty good account of the history of AIC.

Good look into one of the Seattle powerhouse group
