SAP

Late in 1991 Alice released a mostly acoustic EP called Sap. The release was inspired, Cantrell revealed, "by a dream (Sean) Kinney had. He actually dreamed that we put these three songs on an EP and called it Sap. he saw us talking about it at a press conference and saw it doing really well.” The realization of the dream, Cantrell added, “came together so smoothly, it’s almost scary.”

Sap features appearances by venerable Seattle rock bands Heart, Soundgarden, and Mudhoney and one noisy cut called “Love Song” on which Alice’s members switched instruments.

SAP also marks Jerry's debut singing lead. Encouraged by Layne to start singing lead on the songs he works so hard on to write, Jerry sang lead on the song “Brother.”

'Them Bones' (Dirt, 1992)

I believe

Them bones are me

Some say

We're born into the grave

I feel so alone

Gonna end up a big ol' pile of them bones

Good Morning, Good Evening and Good Salutations wherever you are. This is the last new image I’ll be sharing of Layne & Demri. This is not the full image, @demri_lara_parrott has it on her schedule to share it at a specific date/time. • The photo is from a collage I purchased almost 3 years ago (I own 2 collages). This has absolutely not been altered in any way. As I’ve previously stated, Alison wants her photos watermarked if they’re shared, of course, we are always happy to oblige. • ©Alison Dyer 1992, Los Angeles, CA. • —————————————————— #nehistripesseattle #demrinlayne #lovecouples #gonetoosoon #laynendemri #everlastinglove #aliceinchains #magical #demriparrott #justlikeheaven #laynestaley #chainer4life #1990s #heaven #lovedalways❤️ #gorgeous (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmzK2GppV5p/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I was asked to do a print for Alice In Chains 30th anniversary re-release of the Dirt boxed set! Luckily I got @whoisrico to color this for me! Mine focused on the song “Rooster” with the original Dirt cover in the background. As fans, Rico and I were more than happy to be involved with this project! #aliceinchains #aic #dirt #aicdirt30th #boxedset #rock #grunge #90srock #laynestaley #jerrycantrell #rooster #igart #artoftheday #badass @thekubertschool #kubertschool #kubie #mikestarr #socool #music #legend https://www.instagram.com/p/ChQEZKgPgC2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

 Alice in Chains was the supporting act for the tri-headlined Clash of the Titans Tour featuring Slayer, Megadeath, and Anthrax. This was the second leg, the first being a European tour supported by Testament and Suicidal Tendencies.

Alice in Chains was not originally met with cheering fans and friendly greetings, unfortunately. According to Sean Kinney, “Slayer fans were impatient, to say the least, with Alice’s deliberate, Complex arrangements, hurling verbal abuse and-in one instance-jugs of Kool-Aid at the group…That was one of our finest shows.” says Kinney, in an interview with Request’s Daina Darzin

Originally, Alice in Chains was not on the bill for the North American tour. According to Get Thrashed, the 2006 Thrash Metal Documentary, Death Angel was to be the supporting act instead. However, after a near-death bus crash, they were forced to pass on the gig; opening up the space for Alice to promote their first studio album, Facelift.

Try to keep bad blood in the past

Never thought a chance, a chance it would last

I have strength enough, enough to forgive

I desire peace where I live

I've been blessed with eyes to see this

Behind the unwhole truth you hide

Bite to remind the bitten, bigger

Mouth repaying tenfold wide

How is it you're feeling so uneasy?

How is it that I feel fine?

Life reveals what is dealt through seasons

Circle comes around each time

I'm above

Over you I'm standing above

Claiming unconditional love

Above

'ABOVE' ~ Mad Season (Live at The Moore, 1995)
