Alice in Chains Open Up To Metallica

(FMQB) Alice In Chains' highly anticipated new album, Black Gives Way To Blue, finally comes out on September 29. In anticipation of such a long-awaited release, all four band members sat down with none other than James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich of Metallica to discuss their new work for an FMQB radio special, dubbed Inside Alice In Chains: Black Gives Way To Blue. The special is airing on radio stations nationwide between September 25 and 29, and the group talked very openly about moving on after the death of Layne Staley, writing songs with new singer William DuVall, and having Elton John play on the title track. When asked by Hetfield what the album title means to the band, guitarist Jerry Cantrell explained that the title track is a song about Staley. "It's a really intense song and a really open-hearted song because of Layne and the experience that we all went through," he said. "It's [about] facing up to that stuff and all the good and all the bad and moving forward together. It speaks to [the fact that] things were pretty black for us. It's pretty literal, and things are starting to get a little lighter."
