Anyone heard the new Alice In Chains album Black Gives Way To Blue? It's been leaked in its entirety and able to be downloaded via torrent. As a big AIC fan, I can say this album is not a letdown in the least bit and sounds just like the old AIC. It's no Dirt, but that's pretty much uncompareable to anything. The track list is as follows:

1. All Secrets Known
2. Check My Brain
3. Last Of My Kind
4. Your Decision
5. A Looking In View
6. When The Sun Rose Again
7. Acid Bubble
8. Lessons Learned
9. Take Her Out
10. Private Hell
11. Black Gives Way To Blue

Stand out tracks I really dig so far are Check My Brain, A Looking In View, and the title track Black Gives Way To Blue. The title track is written as a tribute to the late Layne Staley and is pretty emotional for Cantrell you can tell. Elton John even plays piano on the title track, kind of an odd combo, but you'd never know otherwise. So, anyone else hear the album? Comments, questions?

I haven't actually heard it yet, but I really want to. I love AIC and hope this album lives up to the name.
