Chorus:
Into the flood again
Same old trip it was back then
So I made a big mistake
Try to see it once my way

In 1992 I woke up, going to the first day of my freshman year of high school. While eating breakfast this song came on MTV. I'm 45 now and I still remember this like yesterday. Time is terrifying.

[@joshapples88]

Watching music videos before school was my favorite thing. Even with sings that I didn't like sometimes had amusing videos. I was the last generation to appreciate this . I was 5 when this came out , loved this band

[@davida.quinnsr.5869]

Dig Up Dem Bones was a bad-ass album- I used to think Seattle Rock was uh not that good, but, it's actually bad-assed! Too bad most of the legends passed on, (I think the only Seattle Rock band that's still survivin' is Eddie Vedder, of Pearl Jam..)

When it comes to the big 4 of grunge. I hands down say Layne is the best, but I know Chris and Eddie have their die hard fans and I respect that. And then Kurt... well... he may not have have the strongest voice but everyone loves him for the path he paved.

[@idkanymore9869]

[@adavison335]

@@thornstrikesback I think Layne and Kurt are the best...Layne above Kurt for sure! But Kurt was good because he didn't try to be technical or perfect and it worked.

[@zionjacobs1308]

The real sadness behind this song is so profound. Layne wore sunglasses to mask his highness while filming this music video. The song is well-known to be written about close friend and fellow grunge frontman Andrew Wood who died from a heroin overdose. It is a direct embodiment of the feeling of addiction and succumbing to this disease wondering if its ever too late to turn back. Jerry Cantrell wrote it who probably also had his fair share of these struggles. Layne's performance in this song is so captivating because he is walking the exact path he is singing about, battling the same battle that his friend did and lost. Of course, Layne's passing was heartbreaking and difficult for those around him who saw his decline and wanted to help. So sad that addiction and depression causes you to isolate and mainly hang with other addicts just like what happened with Kurt and Mike Starr. Mike was supposedly the last person to see Layne alive, and after a failed attempt to send him to the hospital, got high himself and blacked out for 2 weeks. Imagine being at rock bottom and your only company are your lifetime friends whose only common ground is being stuck at rock bottom. Mike was one of the only people to stay in touch with Layne, and him the only AiC member he kept in touch with after he was kicked out of the band, because of their shared habit. I'm sure they both wanted each other to get out of there for their sake. Makes me very mournful for all the talent and their amazing souls that were lost to addiction or depression. Mental health is no joke, it can affect you no matter how successful or unsuccessful you are. Long live those that have overcome these struggles and are still rockin'.

I always ask myself, did these musicians fall into this chemical trap because of the musical lifestyle…or did they fall into the trap/ rut long before? As tragic as it is either way… they made their choices… 😢

[@stephanieproulx222]

@@Derandcam Before. I lived in Seattle in the 90's and worked at Deja Vu ( 1st &Pike strip club) where they'd come in a lot. The drug scene was huge and I think that partly it's the depressing weather. Staying in a lot. It was an incredible time, but when Andrew Wood passed things took a dark turn. The music they put out was from their core, and It still blows me away.

[@michaelcomazzi5047]

When I was 18, we said goodbye to Layne, and I was really sad. I read that layne had a foundation made in his name. I wrote a small letter to them, explaining how much Layne meant to all of us, and a lot of our youth struggles with drugs, depression, etc. I wrote that I was an addict too. Since I was 15. I also sent $1. I was definitely not expecting a letter written back to me from Layne's mom. Her name is Nancy McCullum, and she runs the foundation. She sent me a poster of aic from the Moore Theater, some stickers, and in solemn disbelief, the program from Laynes celebration of life (or funeral) The program had the names Chris Cornell, Mark Lanagan from Screaming Trees, and Nancy and Ann Wilson from Heart. Chris Cornell and Heart did a cover of "Ring them Bells" written by Bob Dylan, and Mark Lanagan read a poem Layne had written. Anyway, I never thought that sending $1 to Laynes foundation would merit anything! Nancy, Laynes mom said encouraging words to me in regards to my opiate dependency. After years of on again off again substance abuse, I'm finally 150 days sober. It gets better. Thank you Nancy, Laynes mom, for the awesome keepsakes, and for giving birth and raising my favorite singer. God bless and take life one day at a time.

I've always enjoyed alice in chains well enough, but honestly it wasn't until fairly recently that I REALLY got into them and came to love their music.. I grew up watching MTV, rocking out. I was pretty young when grunge was peaking, so it took me awhile to truly appreciate some of those bands. Here today, the more I go back and rediscover alice in chains, the more I love them!! Such an incredible band. Layne had one of the most powerful and haunting, beautiful voices of all time. And Jerry Cantrell is in my opinion criminally underrated! Alice in Chains fucking rules!

Alice in Chains have never been "grunge". They've always been hard rock. Same with Soundgarden. "Grunge" isn't really a genre, just a description, according to Mark Arm, who supposedly came up with the term (he says he didn't though, as he said the whole idea came from Australia in the 80's). "Grunge" was a ploy to try to box bands into a marketable genre.

No one will ever believe this, but it is true. When I was 19 years old I wrote endless fan mail to this band. I covered the outside of my letters with art work, made all sorts of jokes using the lyrics of their songs. Even suggested they lift some weights. About 1 month later I received an envelope in the mail from the band. They all wrote personalized notes to me - every single member of the group. Layne responded to me, writing "What?! You didn't know? I'm doing it for the kids!" They all took a picture flexing, joking back to my comment about hitting the gym. Through many moves I believe I lost all of those letters. Someday, I hope they turn up in some box I have not looked in or uncovered so that I can share them with everyone else who loved this band. They were the real deal. All of them took the time to write a lonely kid who idolized them and hung on every lyric just to get through the day. It still amazes me that they took the time to make such a personal connection with me. I hope this story adds even more love to those AIC fans who felt the same way I did when I wrote the band. They truly cared about their fans.

I believe it. I live in the Seattle area and my uncle was a nurse in the emergency room of Highline Community Hospital in the mid and late 90s. Mike Starr came into the ER for a heroin overdose one night. My uncle and the crew helped him that night and Mike autographed a Dirt CD and wrote "thank you for saving my life" on it. Unfortunately I think my uncle has lost the CD over the years and after several moves, just like you lost your letters from the band. A female coworker who is still friends with my uncle, likes to remind us that she had to take out Starr's nipple rings before the doctors started working on him.

Great voices too: layne, criss, even scott weiland and STP at the start of this grunge era were considered grunge, I know theres more singers but this 4 were the best 90s voices of rock back then, period.

[@The5150tone]

100 times better but not in the same category. Alice is hard rock/ metal Nirvana is crap grunge.

The reason they aren’t is because nirvana doesn’t have a bad song. Alice in chains has plenty of bad songs.
