On this day 29 years ago - Alice In Chains released Jar of Flies. The self-produced EP was written and recorded over the course of just one week at the @londonbridgestudio in Seattle. The tracks "No Excuses", "I Stay Away" and "Don't Follow" were released as singles to promote the album. Jar of Flies was nominated for two Grammy Awards in 1995: Best Recording Package and Best Hard Rock Performance for "I Stay Away". Personally it should’ve won. • • The EP was well received by critics and has been certified quadruple-platinum by the RIAA, making Jar of Flies one of the band's most successful releases. In Canada, Jar of Flies was certified double-platinum for the sale of 200,000 copies. In Great Britain, the album was certified silver after selling 60,000 copies. • When members returned home to Seattle after the end of their Lollapalooza tour and found themselves evicted from their residence after failing to pay the rent. Homeless, the band then moved into the London Bridge Studio in Seattle • • During Alice in Chains' June–August 1993 appearance at Lollapalooza, guitarist Jerry Cantrell called record producer Toby Wright with a proposal to collaborate on new material. Wright reacted positively and booked ten days at the London Bridge Studio. Despite Cantrell's assurances, the band did not have any planned tracks before the session began. The rest is history! • • Images shown are from actual ads/promos from my personal collection-CC Promo pic of the AiC Claymation Dolls by Marty Temme @ultimaterockpix —————————————————— #nehistripesseattle #LSMS #LSMSAiC #aliceinchains #laynestaley #chainer4life #mikestarrforever #1990s #seankinney #jerrycantrell #williamduvall #mikeinez #the1loveaic #grungeera #jarofflies #anniversaries (at London Bridge Studio) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn2oCB_yClq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Alice in Chains legendary 1994 EP Jar Of Flies has been re-issued as a stand-alone 12" for the first time in 30 years!

"Following an exhausting and transformative tour in support of the group’s sophomore album Dirt (1992), Jar of Flies offered the Seattle grunge icons a chance to record music in a more relaxed environment and intimate, acoustic style. For the first time in the studio, singer Layne Staley, guitarist Jerry Cantrell and drummer Sean Kinney were joined by bassist Mike Inez, who joined Alice in Chains midway through their 1993 tour.

The self-produced EP acted as a spiritual sequel to the group’s last EP Sap (1992), which also featured a more acoustic-driven sound. Tracks like “I Stay Away,” “No Excuses” and “Don’t Follow” showcased the range of Alice in Chains, further establishing them as one of the most unique and engaging rock bands of the decade"

Alice In Chains - Jar Of Flies (30th Anniversary Remaster) - $55

Sleep in sweat the mirrors cold
