crowes

One of my favorite, and one of the greatest, bands from the 90′s, The Black Crowes, are getting ready to release a new album on September 1 through their own label Silver Arrow.

The band’s eighth studio, Before The Frost… is something that I’m looking forward since I really dug last year’s come back studio album Warpaint. But besides it probably being a solid album, the band will also be giving away a second disc.

Yup, that’s right, The Black Crowes will be giving away an entire album for FREE.

Today was one of those days that best resembles Christmas morning.

I woke up to discover that Alice in Chains have released the first single from their upcoming album Black Gives Way to Blue. But, it got even sweeter. It turns out that AIC are giving the song away for free at their official site.

The track, “A Looking in View,” not only has a cool title, but is classic Alice. The band sounds tight and fresh, like they haven’t missed a beat since the decade plus between albums. Not to mention that new vocalist William DuVall fits in perfectly with Jerry, Sean and Mike, so stop crying about him haters.
