In the scheme of things they aren't too off the wall, but in that movement they did quite a few moves against the grain while still being associated with "grunge" unlike POTUSA, or Primus, or RHCP was.

The point I've made a couple times here though is that, at the time, I don't think they
were particularly associated with grunge. I certainly knew of them before I had ever heard of Nirvana, Pearl Jam or a genre called "grunge". What they were associated with, like Alice In Chains, was metal. And "odd time signatures, a falsetto, playing instruments in the upper register" were very much staples of metal.
