The tracklisting for the long-awaited Alice in Chains album, "Black Gives Way to Blue" has been released. The album will be released September 29th. The song, "A Looking In View", though not an official single, has begun climbing the metal radio charts. Understandable, as it's the first new music from the band in 14 years. Listen to the song below.
Jerry Cantrell talked about the song's meaning: "The song is kind of generally about how easy it is to remain in a bad groove (laughs), you know, remain in a bad rut," he said. "The most difficult and at the same time easy thing is just to step out of it, you know what I mean? It's like being in a cell that you're locked in, with a door that's not locked. That could be anything, you know. It could be any sort of behavioral or thought process that keeps you there and basically keeps you from growing."
