Alice in Chains talk with Metallica about new album

Today, and for the next 3 weeks, AOL’s Noisecreep.com will be releasing an exclusive and/or unheard audio clip from the amazing FMQB Metallica/Alice in Chains interview, “Inside Alice In Chains: Black Gives Way To Blue.” This week’s clip features Metallica talking to Alice in Chains about their collaboration with Elton John on the song “Black Gives Way To Blue.”

Discussing the title track, Cantrell tells Hetfield and Ulrich,

“It’s a really intense song, and a really open-hearted song to Layne and the experience that we went through. Facing up to all of that stuff, and owning all the good, and owning all the bad, and moving forward together. It was a lot of big steps… things were pretty black for us. It’s pretty literal to that, and things are starting to get a little lighter.”

Keep checking back in the coming weeks for parts 2 and 3 of this classic interview.
