Alice in Chains' Dirt turns 25

On this day 25 years ago (1992 if you suck at math), Alice in Chains released their second full-length studio album Dirt.

 

pretty much anyone who bought the album will tell you there’s something special about it. Alice in Chains were one of the few bands which could record an entire album where none of the songs felt like filler. Each song from the opening “Them Bones” to the closer “Would?” were distinct. When you talked to someone who bought the album, there was no explaining which song you were talking about, they knew.

 

While many people say now that it was the album that launched them into the mainstream, they seem to forget that 1990s Facelift had already been a great success with its hit song “Main in a Box.” That song was seemingly played nonstop on MTV’s Buzz Block, if anyone remembers that.
