Disco in arrivo per gli Alice In Chains

[PePPe!]

Nel 2009 il primo album degli Alice In Chains dopo 14 anni

Sarà pubblicato molto probabilmente nel corso del 2009 il nuovo album dei riformati Alice In Chains, il gruppo grunge che era finito fuori carreggiata dopo la morte del cantante Layne Staley nell’aprile 2002. La band, con William DuVall di Atlanta al posto del compianto frontman, nelle ultime settimane si è data molto da fare: ha registrato da sola ad Hollywood tra la fine di luglio e l’inizio di agosto, poi è stata raggiunta dal produttore e tutti hanno trascorso insieme tre giorni, ora sta registrando nuovamente e nel corso del prossimo mese dovrebbe esserci l’assemblaggio finale del disco. L’album è ora programmato per il 2009 e sarà il primo degli Alice In Chains dall’omonimo del 1995.

Ottima notizia, mi son sempre piaciuti gli Alice in Chains! Speriamo che lo tirino fuori presto questo lavoro, sono curioso perchè il nuovo cantante mi aveva fatto una buona impressione al Gods quando li ho visti!

ALICE IN CHAINS Completes Mixing New Album

ALICE IN CHAINS has completed mixing its first new studio album in 14 years. According to an online posting by The Baldy — whose job is "to travel the world with ALICE IN CHAINS and send photos, videos and blog entries back to [the webmasters] at AliceInChains.com" — "Some amazing songs were written and recorded. From the heaviest riff-dripping gut-puncher to the most sadly beautiful song I think this band has ever recorded, I honestly believe that this album will return ALICE IN CHAINS to the top of the hard rock heap.

"So now the next few months are dedicated to things like album artwork, lining up interviews and press, shooting videos, planning tours, and figuring out whether to bury Jerry [Cantrell, guitar/vocals] and William's [DuVall, vocals] beards at sea or donate them to science.

"Hopefully these new songs will strike a chord and make a similar impact on all of you out there that were moved by this band in the first place. These songs have definitely done that with me, and frankly I'm getting pretty sick and tired of loving this stuff alone, so I can’t wait for it to be released so it'll become your favorite record of 2009 and we can discuss it at the shows."

One person who has gotten a preview of the new ALICE IN CHAINS album is the band's good friend, VELVET REVOLVER bassist Duff McKagan. In fact, McKagan said in a new podcast at TalkingMetal.com that the new ALICE IN CHAINS record is "the best album of the past 10 years." Very few details have emerged about the record, which will mark the recording debut with the group of singer William DuVall, who took over for late vocalist Layne Staley when ALICE IN CHAINS reactivated in 2006.

Although there has been speculation and even doubt over whether ALICE IN CHAINS could continue without Staley, guitarist Jerry Cantrell told The Pulse of Radio that the band's approach to making music is still the same. "Everything that we ever created musically as a band, I can still stand behind it completely, and we did it because we loved it, and we spent the time to make sure it was kick-ass," he said. "And this is nothing different, you know. Of course, the dynamic has shifted and, you know, we miss Layne tremendously, but we feel that we still have something to offer, you know."

There is no official word yet on when the new ALICE IN CHAINS album will come out, although a fall release is tentatively expected.

The group began writing and recording the disc on its own last year, and intends to sign a new record deal now that the project is finished.

ALICE IN CHAINS' last full-length studio effort was a self-titled disc issued in 1995. Layne Staley died from a drug overdose in April of 2002.

Video footage of ALICE IN CHAINS' February 28, 2009 performance at the Soundwave Festival in Adelaide, Australia can be viewed below (clips uploaded by "backpackdave08").

ALICE IN CHAINS guitarist Jerry Cantrell recently spoke with Australia's Courier-Mail about the group's upcoming album, its first full-length set of new material in more than 13 years and first without lead singer Layne Staley, who died in 2002 after a long battle with drug addiction. Handling lead vocals is William DuVall, who has sung with the group ever since it reactivated in 2005. Cantrell said, "The new stuff is cool. It's pretty goddamn crushing. I've stepped up a little bit from where I was before . . . obviously, it'll be a new sound from William being there — but it sounds like an ALICE IN CHAINS record and a kick-ass one. There's everything from the darkest of dark, heavy shit to acoustic stuff. Throw all that together and that's what you'll get."

Cantrell told The Pulse of Radio when the band first got back together that they did not have a set plan to tour or make a new album. "You know, if you were looking at how to really capitalize on this experience and really make dough and make it a profitable thing, a band might, you know, would come out with a singer, have a record ready and all that," he said. "But that's not where we're coming from with this thing. We're coming from the place of 'It feels good, and we're having a good time, so we'd like people to be a part of that.'"

ALICE IN CHAINS is scheduled to play at Columbus, Ohio's Rock On The Range festival in mid-May.

Pronto il primo album del nuovo corso degli Alice In Chains



Gli Alice In Chains seconda versione hanno completato, dopo un laborioso processo, quello che sarà il primo album dopo la scomparsa, avvenuta nel 2002, del loro frontman Layne Staley. Gli Alice In Chains si sono ritrovati nel 2005 e il posto di Staley, morto per overdose, è stato preso da William DuVall dei Comes With The Fall. Il vocalist ha 41 anni e si è fatto le ossa ad Atlanta nel "giro" hardcore. Gli AIC sono rimasti in studio dall'ottobre 2008 al mese scorso, ma il lavoro di preparazione è stato decisamente più lungo. Il disco, ancora senza titolo, sarà pubblicato nel prossimo settembre.

Alice in Chains, i primi dettagli sul nuovo album



Si intitola "Black gives way to blue" e verrà pubblicato in Italia il prossimo 25 settembre il nuovo album degli Alice in Chains, primo album da studio della band da oltre un decennio a questa parte: il disco è anticipato dal singolo "A looking in view", già disponibile gratuitamente in ascolto sul sito ufficiale del gruppo all'indirizzo www.aliceinchains.com.
"'A looking in view' parla fondamentalmente di qualsiasi cosa ci renda confusi", ha dichiarato il cantante e chitarrista Jerry Cantrell: "Di quella cella con la porta aperta che ci costruiamo e nella quale a volte decidiamo di rimanere chiusi, focalizzando la nostra attenzione al nostro interno invece che guardarci attorno, renderci conto di un mondo molto più grande. Penso che sia una cosa che abbiamo sperimentato un po’ tutti". Al momento, le uniche date del gruppo previste in Europa sono programmate a Londra, Cologna, Berlino, Amburgo ed Amsterdam.
