This week on Pop Culture Yearbook, we dive deep into *Dirt*, the landmark 1992 album from Alice in Chains that helped define the darker, heavier side of the Seattle grunge explosion. Dave from *Totally 80s and 90s Recall* join us to break down classic tracks like “Would?,” “Rooster,” “Them Bones,” and “Down in a Hole,” while discussing Layne Staley’s haunting vocals, Jerry Cantrell’s riffs, and why the album still hits so hard.
Along the way, we talk about where *Dirt* ranks among the greatest grunge albums ever made and how Alice in Chains stood apart from Seattle peers like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden with a sound that was heavier, bleaker, and deeply personal.
Plus, we hold a Seattle Pop Culture Draft, picking our favorite music, movies, TV shows, athletes, landmarks, and cultural icons connected to the Emerald City.
Check out *Totally 80s and 90s Recall*!
