What rock and metal albums from the ’90s would you pass down to your children? In the ’90s, I was wrapping up my college years and spending a majority of my 20s. The music of this decade really left a lasting impact on me – one that I would hope the next generation of kids embraces and looks fondly upon and gets passed down from generation to generation. For this exercise, we’re limiting it to 25 entries, which once again leads to some hard cuts.

When you’re a young band, opening for an artist as massive as Van Halen can feel pretty daunting. Regardless, when Alice In Chains went on tour with the legends in 1991, they still found a way to make it lighthearted, as you can see in newly-surfaced footage from one of their soundchecks. The footage, which was split into two parts, was uploaded to the YouTube channel Alt Copperpot5 at the end of last month. The soundcheck took place before the band’s show with Van Halen on Aug. 16, 1991, which was just a few days before Layne Staley‘s 24th birthday. The rockers had already released their debu...
