ALICE IN CHAINS Previews New Album In Los Angeles

July 15, 2009

According to Reuters, ALICE IN CHAINS previewed its first studio album in 14 years at a listening party in Hollywood, California on Tuesday.
Guitarist Jerry Cantrell, accompanied by new singer/guitarist William DuVall, bass player Mike Inez and drummer Sean Kinney, performed a three-song acoustic set at the Montalban Theatre, including the title track from the new album, "Black Gives Way To Blue", due in stores on September 29.

Cantrell described the song as a "deep" tribute to DuVall's predecessor, Layne Staley, who lost his lengthy battle with drugs in 2002. It includes a glockenspiel turn by Kinney. The band also played another new song, "Your Decision", and "Down in a Hole", from its 1992 breakthrough "Dirt".
