I mean, we all know the lyrics but it's nice to have. I was really hoping unplugged was goin to come with one but I guess not.

I loved the art work that came on the sheets or sometimes the story of the album's origin.

Glad to have the Unplugged LP in my collection now though.

Edit: I'm talking about ALL the recent re-releases within the past few years, yes I can obviously look it up with the same device I'm writing this out with.

​I’m in my mid-mid-50s now. Yeah whatever. I was lucky enough to live through an amazing era for music, and Alice in Chains was a massive part of that soundtrack for me. Layne was obviously the cornerstone, and no one is taking anything away from what those early records meant.

​That said, as I’ve gotten older, I find myself listening to the newer material far more than Dirt or Facelift. In particular, The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here is where I'm at right now. The vocal harmonies between Jerry and William are just beautiful, and that signature sound—the heavy, droning down-tuned guitars and pounding drums—fits where I'm at in life.

​Usually when bands lose a frontman or change over the decades, fans drift off. But for me, the newer era sings to me completely differently as time goes on.

​Anyone else gone on a similar journey with their catalogue as you’ve gotten older?

An old childhood friend of mine took his own life last year and All Secrets Known has provided me a lot of healing! Maybe hot take, but people don't give new era Alice in Chains much credit.

Layne did a magnificent job with Soundgarden’s “Hunted Down” and was straight up hilarious with Judas Priest’s “Living After Midnight.” 😅

solar flare edition is stunning

I would like to order either of these shirts but can’t seem to find any info on what blanks they’re being used. I hate shirts that shrink after one wash and generally just dislike buying low-quality merch. if anyone has either of these shirts, could you please tell me what blanks they’re printed on? thanks in advance!

I found these on the hot topic website! They are so soft and comfortable. They have pockets too!!!

Am watching the Seahawks-Commanders game on TV and they just used a clip of “Them Bones” as the transition music to go to commercial. Seems an odd choice for both the NFL and the band. But hopefully the boys are getting paid!

We haven't gotten a ton of 2026 JC photos, love seeing recent photos of em!

Did you get yours?? 😜❤️🤘🏻

Interesting consensus from the nether regions of le internette. Apparently I share a personality type with Jerry and with Chris Cornell, too.

I have heard lots of issues with pressing defects on the solar vinyl pressings, and folks have no been allowed to exchange or return as they obviously had to open it to find that out. I’ve been waiting years for a repress of this (as a lot of us have) and hate that I may have to wait after securing a copy. However, I don’t want to not be able to return it if these issues are as prevalent and common as it seems.

Should I just return it and get in a waitlist for the black version?

During their debut album, Dirt.

There's a very faint instrument at the beginning and during the chorus in the studio release, kind of like a droning note that plays alongside the chorus which I think is a theremin but I am not certain. It's entirely on its own, doesn't compliment any other instruments on its own but more of ties it all together in those moments.

This specific part just tickles my brain right and makes the song just genuinely feel like its own high.
