2009 - Alice In Chains - Black Gives Way To Blue [FULL ALBUM]

Black Gives Way To Blue is the fourth studio album by the American rock band Alice In Chains, released on September 29, 2009, on the 17th anniversary of the release of their second album, Dirt.

It is their first record without original lead singer Layne Staley, who died in 2002, and their first album with new vocalist and rhythm guitarist William DuVall sharing vocal duties with lead guitarist/vocalist Jerry Cantrell, who sings lead vocals on most of the songs.
