Alice In Chains - Alice In Chains (1995 Seattle, US) | Grunge | Full Vinyl Rip

This is Alice In Chains, the 1995 self-titled grunge album released on Columbia. This is the one most people call Tripod (or the Dog album), and it captures that mid-90s Seattle mood when everything got heavier, slower, and way more inward. Youtube pulled this down before so I thought I'd try it again is it's now finally been reissued. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj0yF7-9YQ9pEOi1yCUyAZikNmWVdz8Hn This rip comes from my personal US 2xLP gatefold copy on Columbia (C2 67248 / 67248 S1). Recorded April to August 1995 at Bad Animals in Seattle and mixed at Electric Lady Studios in New York, produced by Toby Wright with the band. Singles from this album were "Grind" (Oct 6, 1995), "Heaven Beside You" (Jan 29, 1996), and "Again" (1996). How it came about is basically the story. After the Dirt and Jar of Flies era, the band had been largely inactive live due to Layne’s addiction, and grunge was already starting to cool off in the mainstream. They went into Bad Animals and built this record in the room, and it sounds like it. No gloss. No victory lap. Just a band trying to exist inside the fog and still make something real. 📷 Follow me on Instagram for more vinyl rips: https://www.instagram.com/vinyl_piper/ Two standout tracks for me are: "Grind" and "Frogs" 💿 Tracklist 00:00 Grind 04:46 Brush Away 08:09 Sludge Factory 15:27 Heaven Beside You 20:56 Head Creeps 27:27 Again 31:36 Shame in You 37:17 God Am 41:27 So Close 44:19 Nothin' Song 50:00 Frogs 58:22 Over Now #AliceInChains #Tripod #Grunge #1995Vinyl #ColumbiaRecords #VinylRip #VinylCommunity #VinylPiper
