Alice in Chains' fourth studio album
Alice in Chains' Fourth Studio Album (sixth studio recording, counting Sap and Jar of Flies) is currently in pre-production and will be the follow-up to their 1995 self-titled release. The album's title and release date have not yet been revealed, nor is it known if a title and release date have even been decided on.
