re: Alice In Chains

The big music media Rolling Stone type magazine elitists never shut up about Kurt Cobain & Nirvana but it was Alice In Chains that were the true legends of the “grunge” era.

Nirvana turned the world upside down with Nevermind and Smells Like Teen Spirit. Alice In Chains Facelift came out a year before Nevermind originally they were marketed as metal, which Facelift really is, they got swept up as grunge because they were also from Seattle and everyone (read as record labels) wanted to capitalize but there’s no “Grunge wave” with out Nirvana.

Now if you want to argue AIC is a better band, that’s a different argument.
