Dirt

Alice in Chains

A heavy, uncompromising descent into addiction and despair. Sludge-thick riffs meet eerie, dissonant vocal harmonies in a definitive 1990s rock statement.

September 29, 1992 · Columbia

Moments Worth Listening For
The jarring, chromatic vocal climb in the chorus of Junkhead that feels like a physical ascent.
The sudden, explosive transition from the delicate acoustic intro to the crushing electric wall in Down in a Hole.
The haunting, layered 'yeah' refrains in the finale of Would? that hang in the air like smoke.
The rhythmic, military-style snare roll that introduces the harrowing war narrative of Rooster.
