Reaching international fame in the early 90s as a part of the grunge movement, Alice in Chains has gone through quite an evolution, but is ready to rock Caesarea this summer. In their heyday, they sold over 20 million records worldwide, received nine Grammy nominations, and had two albums hit number-one on the Billboard 200 chart. Alongside other Seattle bands such as Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden, they shaped the development of hard rock, grunge, and metal genres today.
Not many grunge bands survived the 90s with the dark reality of their culture’s intense drug culture. But after a hiatus, the remaining band members reunited for a charity concert helping the victims of South Africa’s 2004 tsunami, and resparked their creative fuel. In the past decade, Alice in Chains has produced more albums and top hits, got nominated for even more Grammys, and performed more raging tours, gaining their name as The Queen of International Rock Festivals.
Fans have only increased their expectations and excitement for their next album and upcoming tour. The band will arrive in Israel upon the fresh release of their sixth album, so prepare for an evening full of nostalgia as well as exploding new energy. Don’t miss the Grunge Pioneer and the Queen of International Rock Festivals this July for a night of rock ‘n’ roll like no other.
July 17-18, 20:30. Caesarea Amphitheater. Tickets go on sale tonight (6/3), starting at NIS 249.
