Alice in Chains Merch for Grunge Fans
Even though their name might not come up as often as
Nirvana,
Pearl Jam, or
Soundgarden, Alice in Chains from Seattle are among the
most influential bands of the grunge movement of the early 90s. Their music has had a lasting impact on many bands today. The late
Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington cited Alice in Chains as one of his favorite bands. This influence is clearly audible in retrospect. Alice in Chains, along with
Pearl Jam, are the only still active bands from the notorious grunge movement and are considered living legends. With cool T-shirts, hoodies, and other
Alice in Chains merch items, you can show your loyalty to your favorite band.
The History of Alice in Chains
Unlike many other grunge bands, Alice in Chains' style is significantly more diverse. Their music includes
influences from heavy metal, raw punk, and even psychedelic rock à la
The Doors or
Pink Floyd. The dual vocals and guitarist Jerry Cantrell's melancholic lyrics are typical trademarks.
Alice in Chains, like most bands of the grunge movement, hail from Seattle.
Founded in 1987, the band gradually moved away from their initial glam metal sound. With each recording, their music became heavier and darker, characterized by
ethereal sounds and dissonances.
Nevertheless, the band has been regularly touring since then. With THE DEVIL PUT DINOSAURS HERE (2013) and RAINIER FOG (2018), Alice in Chains released two more albums in the following years, musically marked by strong sludge and doom metal influences.
