Alice In Chains is teasing something for January 25 and it's pretty obvious that it has something to do with Jar Of Flies. Alice In Chains released their Jar Of Flies EP on January 25, 1994, and considering the date and the flies all over the post, the subject of the tease is clear. Though who knows what it means – maybe there's a Jar Of Flies reissue coming? Or maybe some shows celebrating the EP? I guess we'll find out next week.
Jar Of Flies is first EP in history to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart as it sold 141,000 copies in its first week. Jar Of Flies was also nominated for two GRAMMY awards in 1995 – Best Recording Package and Best Hard Rock Performance for the track "I Stay Away". Despite the nomination, "No Excuses" and "Nutshell" are the only two tracks in regular live rotation for Alice In Chains – "I Stay Away" has been performed twice ever.
