Khemmis, Thou, (16) featured on new Alice in Chains tribute compilation

Grunge was a foundational influence for a lot of metalheads—something we wrote about recently—so it’s only natural to hear that a batch of metal bands have come together to cover the music of Alice in Chains. On September 18, Magnetic Eye Records is releasing Dirt [Redux], a compilation of covers of the songs on Alice in Chains’ Dirt featuring bands such as Thou, Howling Giant, (16), Backwoods Payback, The Otolith (featuring ex-members of SubRosa) and Khemmis, who have just shared their take on “Down in a Hole.” Hear it below and take a look at the tracklist.
