Brutal and hard but exciting and surprisingly melodic, DIRT made Alice In Chains national stars in 1992 after being around the Seattle alternative rock scene for many years. They produce a blindingly together sound, with the bass of Mike Starr ...    Full Description

4 stars Brutally Awesome
Back before days of pre-manufactured pop, Alice emerged from the Seattle scene to take the world on with these hard hitting, excellently crafted songs. Lyrics based in Layne's heroin addiction... and the foggy murky guitars of Jerry Cantrell... this cd delivers more bang for the buck than anything that followed. while Billy Corgan and his girls birthed emo... AIC served up rock the way it should be served... Loud... In your face... and honest A surprise from Seattle (they were known as "kinder - garden" locally) they weren't given much of a shot... and took the opportunity by the throat... positively slaying the Lollapalooza audiences that year. "Would" has to be one of the most hauntingly moving songs of all time

5 stars Grunge's Finest
This is by far Alice In Chain's best cd (no disrespect to Facelift) and also the greatest grunge cd ever created. Ten, Nevermind and Core are other grunge greats, but they fall short of being as great as AIC's Dirt. There is not a flaw on this cd, every single song is excellent especially Them Bones and Junkhead.

5 stars Brilliant.
Dirt is without a doubt one of the top four albums to have come out of the grunge movement. While I personally prefer Nevermind and Ten, Dirt offers a unique experience that carved Alice In Chains a prominent niche in the scene that they had helped to create. The album can best (and perhaps only) be described as dark, and it paints a chilling picture indeed of addiction and isolation. It also has very good balance within the tracks: Hearing catchy, radio-friendly songs such as Them Bones, Down in a Hole, Rooster, and Would? allows for greater overall accessablility of the album and makes it listenable for a much longer time, while tracks such as Sickman, Junkhead, Dirt and Angry Chair establish its general mood and allow for a detailed portrait of what pain is really like. To support this, consider some of the lyrics: "Lonliness is not a phase, field of pain is where I graze...", "I want you to scrape me from the walls, and go crazy like you've made me...", or "See my heart, I decorate it like a grave...". Seeing these words may not mean anything to a person, but hearing them as Layne injects them into your system leaves a very significant mark on your mood, even if only for the duration of the album. It promises to please those who give it a chance and are ultimately able to relate to it. That said, I would definitely recommend Dirt to Grunge fans, rock fans, music fans, or anyone who's ever felt as though they lacked the desire to carry on through another day.

Alice In Chains Facelift CD  (1990)

Dirt album
CD $7.59  4.6 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Long before the phrase, "Seattle scene" spoke of an impact that a new generation of musicians was having on rock music, Alice in Chains was struggling to be recognized in the shadow of bands that were more focused on image than craft. On FACELIFT, the band's major label debut, Alice in Chains proved that its fusion of blues, hard rock, and gritty imagery was a force to be reckoned with. While college radio stations ate up fare like "It Ain't Like That" and "We Die Young," the song "Man in a Box" became ...

Dirt CD music
CD $7.59  4.8 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
"I Stay Away" was nominated for Best Hard Rock Performance in the 37th Annual Grammy Awards. Throughout Alice In Chain's body of work, an aura of menace and evil permeates the songs in a deceptively sinister way. JAR OF FLIES is their second EP (the first was SAP), and although they return to more of an unplugged, Alice In Chains Lite sound (as opposed to their usual waves of crashing distortion and dive-bombing leads), it's far from being a polite, poppy record. Collectively, the group goes out on a much more experimental limb. "Swing On This" has a faux-jazz groove to it with newest member Mike Inez's stand-up ...

UNPLUGGED isn't Alice In Chains' first unplugged record; it's just the first official, MTV-sanctioned one. The EPs JAR OF FLIES and SAP are both low-key, mostly-acoustic outings that achieved a similar vibe without the benefit of an MTV appearance. Which is to say Alice In Chains isn't jumping on a bandwagon here; they're doing more of something they do very well. UNPLUGGED features acoustic versions of songs from every record ...

Soundgarden Superunknown CD  (1994)

Dirt album
CD $10.39  4.9 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
"Black Hole Sun" won the 1995 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance, and "Spoonman" won the Grammy for Best Metal Performance. "Black Hole Sun" was also nominated for Best Rock Song, and SUPERUNKNOWN was nominated for Best Rock Album. As the first grunge band to be signed by a major label, Seattle's Soundgarden opened the pop floodgates, and a deluge of thrash-o-rama bands began swamping the airwaves. Following a series of trend-setting releases on the independent Sub Pop and SST labels, Soundgarden's initial A&M releases LOUDER THAN LOVE and BADMOTORFINGER signaled the return of the classic guitar band to popular consciousness. Using the time-honored Led Zeppelin/Aerosmith approach as a jump-off point--not to mention influential bands like Black Sabbath, MC5, The Stooges and Killing Joke--Soundgarden has formalized their own approach to raw power. Their stylized melodic hooks, however, along with their sometimes surreal lyrics, set them apart from the pack. Whether they get dazed and confused on the vamping "Limo Wreck," or cut loose with a wham- bam-thank-you-ma'am 4/4 cruncher like "Kickstand," Soundgarden ...

CHRONO CROSS, the sequel to the SNES favorite CHRONO TRIGGER, is one of the most ambitious role-playing games ever made. There are over 40 playable characters, each with their back-story, special moves, abilities, and weapons. The story spans two discs and follows the story of Serge, a young man who is able to cross dimensions. Suddenly he is pulled between worlds, trying to figure out his own past at the same time. The graphics are bright and beautiful, utilizing the PlayStation's capabilities to the fullest. The polygonal character models are huge and detailed, and the pre-rendered backgrounds are immaculately detailed. The music is composed and arranged by Yasunori Mitsuda, and features very realistic-sounding synthesizers. The battle system revolves around Elements, which are used to grant magical powers, as well as to summon huge monsters. For anyone that wanted to see the story of CHRONO TRIGGER continue, this is your chance.
Key Features
  • Turn-based role-playing game
  • Sequel to popular Chrono Trigger
  • More than 40 characters
  • Has branching story line with multiple ending
  • Choose between 3 levels of attack
Bridge
Ace Of Base Bridge CD  (1995)

CD $6.29  4 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
THE BRIDGE is another chewy hour of bubblegummy Europop that hews close to the one with which this brother-and-sister act put Sweden back on the international pop map in 1994. No stylistic breakthroughs, no daring rushes to the edge of pop's sphere, no deep personal outpourings--just delectable beats and undeniable hooks that apply thinner to Abba's wall-of-sound disco, and then filter it through the modern dance world of reggae, hip-hop, techno and Madonna. Besides a couple of forays into Middle Eastern melody and the occasional nod to the Beatles (note the acoustic guitar break in "Lucky Love [Acoustic Version]," the electric version of which ...
