>>121590048Was it the heroin?
>>121590082yeah but don't forget the coke
>>121589995'People who play violin must only have ever listened to classical music' just shut up, youre embarrassing yourself.
>>121590127i never said that dont put words iny my mouth but wat other grunge band use had violin people writing there songs in 1990s there wasnt anyone doing that so how did they get one for alice in chains
>>121589968Jerry was high too.

>>121590167smashing pumpkins dumbass, i think nirvana did it for a song too
>>121589995>>121590167average alice in chains fan iq
Alice In Chains is the most overrated grunge band by far, in fact I would say musicians that have a heavy reliance on drugs are vastly inferior to those that don't need it
>>121590189Jerry had a bucket next to him because he had food poisoning
Layne had a voice that was untouchable. Even though it degraded with his rampant drug abuse, he delivered some of the most powerful choruses ever recorded. One of a kind. Jerry still doesn't get nearly enough credit though.
>>121590540Ah yes, that old chestnutHe admitted years later the food poisoning story was somewhat less than true
>>121590602Fair enough. I had heard the food poisoning excuse and never delved into it myself. Seeing as how the entire band was on something, or multiple somethings, I feel stupid now for not looking deeper into it.
You literally couldn't name a better live vocal performance of that era. Layne was a monster.https://youtu.be/naoSdrzqh-M?si=_B8sW2-xvQ4pqFAM
>>121590167>>121590256Nirvana used Cello. Smashing Pumpkins used Viola, I believe. For acoustic songs, string additions sound fantastic.
>>121590754Don’t feel stupid. I mean it’s just a band.
>>121590754I heard he admitted it was just a story on some podcast, but I haven't heard the podcast so I dunno for sure
>>121589968He did it just not to feel sick. The crack is what really destroyed him.
>>121589968Alice In Chains harmonized vocals. It was one of the main things that set them apart from other bands at the time. Cantrell and Staley sounded otherworldly together.
>>121591371most of the grunge bands did it to some extent alice in chains was just the best by far
>>121591431They took some lessons from Simon and Garfunkel, but I have no proof of this.
>>121590189Was this normal for MTV Unplugged? Doing all these takes?
>>121591641A lot of the bands who did MTV Unplugged would do multiple takes of songs to get them perfect or to fix any mistakesI've heard Nirvana did theirs in one take but I don't know if that's true or not
