Alice in chains were quite popular before that whole"grunge" movement really took hold of the states....personally i wouldn't classify them as a metal band either.....I think people now are too obsessed with making a new genre labels for every band they hear....its rock and roll..simple as that......so is grunge, emo, punk, whatever you want to call yourselves based on how you or your friends dress ( i don't mean that as a personal attack toward the person i quoted, just generalizing)....it's rock music.
