I've always been deeply rooted in 70s classic rock and funk and stuff like that. I was kind of rejecting towards the music of the '90s, especially the grunge metal movement. But lately I've gotten to listening to Alice in Chains.... And the truth is a lot of the time I think they sound fuckin great. It's just that the voices of many of those grunge metal dudes are extremely affectatious like they're all trying to reach for exactly the same sound, instead of just singing in their own true voice. There is this certain "poser" quality about it that has always turned me off. But Alice in chains is the first band that kind of has me rethinking the whole thing.
