JAR OF FLIES is their second EP (the first was SAP), and although they return to more of an unplugged, Alice In Chains Lite sound (as opposed to their usual waves of crashing distortion and dive-bombing leads), it's far from being a polite, poppy record.\n\u003cbr\u003eCollectively, the group goes out on a much more experimental limb. \"Swing On This\" has a faux-jazz groove to it with newest member Mike Inez's stand-up bass goosing along the rhythm section. \"Rotten Apple\" opens the album with an eerie, foreboding harmonica played through a chamber. As always, front man Layne Staley's lyrics deal with displacement, disillusionment and fighting with one's sense of self, particularly in the moving \"Don't Follow.\" To further liven things, Alice In Chains use a string section as a major facet of \"I Stay Away,\" building it up into a Wagnerian crescendo at the end of the song.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 1994-01-25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 1994-01-25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Alice In Chains","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53445211390136,"sku":"O90J1I-QUUA-GO","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9222\/8280\/files\/alice-in-chains-jar-of-flies-extended-play_BbnUs.jpg?v=1778191789","url":"https:\/\/musicrecordshop.com\/products\/alice-in-chains-jar-of-flies-extended-play","provider":"Music Record Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
