When Alice in Chains' debut album, Facelift, was released in 1990, about a year before Nirvana's Nevermind, the thriving Seattle scene barely registered on the national musical radar outside of underground circles (although Soundgarden's major-label debut, Louder Than Love, was also released that year and brought them a Grammy nomination). That started to change when MTV jumped all over the video for "Man in the Box," giving the group a crucial boost and helping to pave the way for grunge's popular explosion toward the end of 1991.

The discography of Alice in Chains, a Seattle-based rock band, consists of six studio albums, three extended plays (EP), three live albums, five compilations, two DVDs, 40 music videos, and 32 singles (as of May 2019). Alice in Chains was formed in 1987 by guitarist Jerry Cantrell and drummer Sean Kinney, who then recruited bassist Mike Starr and singer Layne Staley. The band signed to Columbia Records in 1989 and released its first EP, We Die Young, in July 1990.

Alice in Chains - Facelift. I’m sure this album and Alice in Chains does not appeal to everybody. People without a taste for negative music should maybe look elsewhere; maybe check out Jar of Flies and Unplugged, that’s some good more happy stuff. But it cannot; and should not be denied, darkness and depression is a big part of Alice in Chains. The music is so heavy; dwelling in the dark, murky areas of human emotions.
