    To answer my own question,Mad season's album 'above' hit U.K today,priced at
    10.99 and is brilliant,highly recommended.

1065.5GRUNGE SUPERGROUPNEWOA::SHERRATT_STue Mar 14 1995 08:136
    It's a grunge supergroup sort of thing,with alice in chains' Layne
    Staley,pearl jam's Mike McCready the drummer from screaming trees (cant
    remember his name) and some other guy (can't remember his name ethier)
    plus Mark Lanegan from screaming trees also has a sing on 2 of the
    tracks all in all well worth a listen too.

Heard it on the rock show on Sunday.  Sounds better than AIC to me.

Nice stuff.

    As good as Mad season's album is,they will NEVER be as good as alice in
    chains.

    What are you on,Alice in chains are awesome.
1065.10CHEFS::GEORGEMThe West is the BestWed Mar 15 1995 08:517
for Christs sake....I'm not going to get into a "AIC suck" or "AIC roolz"-type 
American-style rant.  I just think that this new stuff is a little more "free" 
than the drudging AIC stuff.  I've got facelift, Sap, Dirt and Jar of flies, 
but my *personal* view is that AIC stuff can get pretty dull, whilst this new 
stuff had a few more dimensions.  

Now take off those rose-tinted glasses, and listen again.  sheesh!

    Well neither was I,I was just saying my *personel* view is I happen to
    like AIC,so take off your 'rose tinted' glasses!
    -Simon.
1065.14CHEFS::GEORGEMThe West is the BestWed Mar 15 1995 10:197
ummm...I quote : "What are you on"  Doesn't this suggest that I must be mental 
not to think that AIC are "awesome", and that they're miles better than this 
new effort?

Anyway, enough of this petty squabbling, I like AIC, and I like this new 
outfit.  That's the end of it.  I don't give a shit what Beavis & Butthead 
think of it, either.

Personally, I never leave my crypt.  I work from crypt.  Crypts 'R' us.
Have crypt, will travel.  Wherever I lay my headstone, that's my crypt.

etc. etc.
