Alice In Chains – Dirt

I have a Canadian copy but it's not from Columbia House. It is identical except for a slight design variation on the back cover. The text is black and the barcode is in a white box. Also the fine print says 'Distributed by Sony Music Canada'. Also, it's odd that there is no mention of how the 'untitled' track messes up the numbering of the last few tracks. It's always bothered me about this cd and there is no mention of this in any of the notes or descriptions.

This album is so heavy and so personal, it's hard for me to listen end to end, but it's also a masterpiece of lyrics and music. Layne does some of his best singing here.

Would? is the coolest song ever! Too bad the lead singer died of heroin, but now them bones is a song on the PS2 guitar game. These guys were the hidden gems of the Seattle '92 grunge faze. Pearl Jam was too open and christian ethic'ed, Nirvana was too perverted, and Sound Garden had too much of a clean production/commercialism edge. No one knew I'm growin' hungry, but Alice in Chains was the coolest "Alternative" series around. Yup, yup...
