Jar Of Flies

Product Information

Records that aren't in picture sleeves will either be in a company sleeve or a generic plain sleeve.

Shall I dial some palaeontologists when it’s time to dig up an expanded edition of The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here? Released exactly 30 years ago today (January 25, 1994),the EP made history as the first of its format to debut at No. Following an exhausting and transformative tour in support of the group's sophomore album "Dirt" (1992), "Jar Of Flies" offered the Seattle grunge icons a chance to record music in a more relaxed environment and intimate, acoustic style.

Released a couple of years after their 1992 second album Dirt went multi-platinum, Alice In Chains’ acoustic EP Jar Of Flies made chart history by becoming the first EP to ever enter the Billboard 200 at number one in 1994. Jar Of Flies" made retrospective year-end lists from both Rolling Stone and Guitar World, and in 2022 was certified four times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America ( RIAA).

This double album is a must for AIC fans, the songwriting is classic AIC and demostrates music written and performed with true heart and soul,something which seems nonexistent in todays manufactured fake music culture. Two different sounding albums but both demonstrated what a truly impressive band Alice in Chains were.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. The cult south-London band’s resplendent fourth album Forgiveness Is Yours, like everything they’ve done, has pushed them to the limits not only of.There are many great tracks here,my favorite being Rotten Apples and Brother, Alice in Chains managed to communicate genuine melancholy through their music,anybody who is a fan should own this. It garnered the group two Grammy Award nominations for "Best Hard Rock Performance" ( "I Stay Away") and "Best Recording Package". The 5 star rating is for the album which is superb and is essential for any AIC fan,however I received a different copy to the one advertised,and the copy that is shown in the picture. Alice in Chains are celebrating three decades of their Jar of Flies EP by pressing up a… vinyl LP of flies.

Long-term friends with a mutual admiration for each other’s work, the idea of a collaboration started when John joined Liam on-stage at his biblical Knebworth shows. The EP was originally released on January 25, 1994, and here it is 30 years later standing the test of time. DuVall appears on the last three ALICE IN CHAINS albums: 2009's "Black Gives Way To Blue", 2013's "The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here" and "Rainier Fog".

VG/EX means that the item's sleeve is in Very Good condition and the disc is in Excellent condition. This is a must for vinyl lovers, the cover is super glossy, with an awesome gatefold to peruse through. Seven tracks of acoustic beauty, including the singles ‘No Excuses’, ‘I Stay Away’ and ‘Don’t Follow’. One can’t really give a vinyl LP a true Facelift, and depending on how listeners treat their records, it’s usually dust they’re more concerned about than Dirt.
