Alice In Chains Star Doesn't Think Grunge Killed Hair Metal
. Inez tells Lucas H Gordon: "The difference between the LA scene - I was born and raised here - and the Seattle scene is, Soundgarden was a band for 10 years before they got signed to a major label. So they had a lot of time to get together and gel as a band. "Even all the bands like Nirvana and Alice In Chains in their early days and Pearl Jam, Mother Love Bone - they had a lot of time to jam together before they released their music to the world. So I think that was very important. "Where here in Los Angeles, they were just trying to mix and match bands by 'Oh, we need a bass player with long, blonde hair,' or 'We need a singer with curly hair.' They were just trying to do that. "So the music started lacking, I think. But I'll tell you one thing about the LA scene - there was more girls in the 80s here than I've ever seen anywhere in my life. It was a really fun time to see that." Read more here.
