Jerry Cantrell told Guitar World about the upcoming LP: “It’s not that we were keeping it a secret — we just didn’t want to say a whole lot about it until we had something to say. And we certainly have something to say with this one. It’s a fucking strong record.”

As for the musical direction of the new Alice In Chains material, Cantrell said: “It’s a record we haven’t done yet, I can tell you that. But it’s also a record that has all the elements of anything you would expect from us. It’s got our fingerprint. And we’re really proud of the material that we wrote and the performances we captured. There’s some really heavy shit, some really ugly stuff, some real beautiful stuff, some weirdo trippy shit… it’s good!”

Cantrell also addressed the fact that it has been five years since the release of ALICE IN CHAINS’ last album. “It’s a lot of work doing a record,” he said, “and I think it gets harder the older we get. But we just wait until we’re ready and until we have enough material that’s up to the Alice In Chains standard, and then we do what we do. This is just the racket that we make when we get together.”
