Break out your flannel and combat boots because today in the Coffee Break, we’re going grunge! It’s all in honor of Alice in Chains. The Seattle band’s debut album, Facelift, was released 34 years ago this month.
Facelift was one of the first grunge albums to gain widespread recognition, and it helped usher in the era of grunge. Today, let’s celebrate the album with music!
