In the throes of a heroin addiction, AiC vocalist Layne Staley approaches 'Dirt' with unflinching honesty which still hits hard to this day.

How did the 1992 Los Angeles Riots impact the recording of 'Dirt'?
Which track on the album was inspired by an altercation where Sean Kinney broke a table over Jerry Cantrell's head?!?
Who was the important family member that inspired the band's iconic single 'Rooster'?
