I've got Dirty, Jar Of Flies and S/T.

Gonna get Unplugged later. :D

I like Jar Of Flies, not listened to their S/T yet though.

i always really liked 'the nothing song' from the S/T. it's the one about peanut butter on the brain haha

apparently they were having a hard time in the studio with that track. couldn't get the chorus right, people getting tired and pissed off, etc. apparently after a blowout around 7:30 Staley took a break and everything clicked while he was getting air (and presumably getting some peanut butter on haha)

Alice In Chains :)
Newer - Check My Brain and A Looking In View :)

I think they have a pretty unique sound, and its weird how its classed as grunge (same as Nirvana) and yet they both sound completely and utterly different.
Both both awesome :)

Yeah, "Nothing Song" is definitely one of those AIC tracks that you have to let go of all previous Chains expectations in order to get into it. Really ****in' whacked out. Kind of like the last track from the Sap EP, "Love Song" (some people know it as "Bleeding Gums"). "I love you. I'm not coming back, bitch. I can't see! I can't see!"

"Frogs" actually turned into one of my favorite late AIC songs after a long time of listening to them, where as when I was a kid, it was just one of those tracks that kind of got ignored. Kind of like "Head Creeps", which is also a really awesome song.

I really like "Heaven Beside You", "Grind" and the new "Check My Brain"

That is the worst AiC song I've ever heard (though I haven't heard the new album except for a few songs). That song really turned me off from them after Dirt...to the point I didn't even check out the album it's from until last year. I was like, WTF is this shit?!

I'm fairly new to this band (I know... I was under a rock) but I'm totally loving Your Decision. Really fits with me right now.

I still gotta get some more AIC into my collection... anyone got an upload handy??

They're awesome in concert. I saw them the other night and while I knew it wouldve been better with Layne I was pleasantly surprised at how the new singer is live.
