ALICE IN CHAINS: SEA OF SORROW Single Album (1990)

ALICE IN CHAINS: SEA OF SORROW Single Album cover

Sea of Sorrow is a song by Alice in Chains, featured on their debut full length album Facelift (1990). The song was included on the compilation album The Essential Alice in Chains (2006). A demo version of the song was included on the box set Music Bank (1999).

Sea of Sorrow peaked at number 27 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. The song was a moderate success and is still occasionally played on alternative rock radio stations. Two music videos for the single Sea of Sorrow were created.

In both videos, about two minutes are cut from the song. The second part of guitarist Jerry Cantrell‘s solo is eliminated, as is the second verse. The first version was directed by Paul Rachman, who had previously directed the Man in the Box music video for the band. The first (and ultimately discarded) version is in color and features the band playing in multicolored spotlights.

Layne Staley also has most of his dreadlocks cut off, but some intact, giving him an odd hairstyle. The video is available on the home video release Live Facelift.
