Well this is my last post here at b5, so this is an utterly fitting song.
“Over Now” is the last track from Alice in Chains last studio album, which was their self-titled 1995 release. The track also appears on the band’s Unplugged performance and the compilation The Essential Alice in Chains.
Despite “Over Now” never being […]
Blabbermouth posted some cool news from a Pulse of Radio interview with Alice in Chains main man Jerry Cantrell.
Here’s what Jerry had to say: “We’ve been working about the last four months, and there’s a good bulk of music and a good body of work so far, and we’re having fun, and you know, we’re taking our time and trying […]
This past Saturday, April 5, marked a sorrow day for many folks.
If some of you don’t recall, it was the day that Kurt Cobain (in 1994) and Layne Staley (in 2002) left this world.
I always wonder what Kurt would have done following Nirvana; cause it seemed like the band was going to break up at some point […]
So, I’m going to be a bit conceited here and act like you all know that three of the biggest bands of the 90’s got together and started a side project during their reign of the mid 90’s. Anywho, they were called Mad Season, and the band consisted of members of such known bands as […]
I have alot of respect for the man known as Jerry Cantrell. Why? Well, for starters, is one of the best guitarists and songwriters to come out of the 90’s rock scene. Look at all of AIC’s hits, and then look at who wrote the song - most credits go to Cantrell. The man took […]
AIC released this essential EP back on January 25, 1994.
A lot of people mention 1992’s Dirt as the band’s most definitive album; but Jar of Flies showed us how talented and wonderful AIC were. All seven tracks are so perfectly written and performed, that it left us screaming for more.
That’s why it was no shocker that Jar of […]
I’ve been on an Alice in Chains kick lately, so let’s revisit an FYI I did back in August.
FYI: Alice in Chains
I do feel bad for not posting anything new, so here’s something for you all to enjoy.

The current Velvet Revolver/Alice in Chains tour isn’t the first time that the members of VR have been tied up with a Seattle band. It’s a long and interesting road…
On September 29, 1992 AIC releases Dirt and STP with Core.
In 1995 Weiland’s side project The Magnificent Bastards covered “How Do You Sleep?” and the Layne […]
Seattle’s darkest and perhaps most underrated band, Alice in Chains, will be hitting the road with Velvet Revolver this summer and fall. Word is that they are also planning to record a new album.
The band formed back in 1987, when guitarist Jerry Cantrell met singer Layne Staley . The band was soon rounded out by […]
