This week a continuation of our series called “In The Shadow Of…”, where we compare obscure bands to a mainstream act. This is not about copycats, but more about artists with similar vibes, sharing a sonic landscape, or whose songwriting and playing styles are sympatico. This is another band that is near and dear to both of you humble hosts. A band whose unique harmonies and awesome riffs inspired both hosts to pick up guitars and start singing; the amazing Seattle grunge gods ALICE IN CHAINS! Join us as we discover other bands influenced and inspired by AIC’s revolutionary game-changing music.

What’s this InObscuria thing? We’re a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This is not a statement about bands trying to copy one another, but more that they have a shared sound and vision. It’s been said that there is no originality left in rock n’ roll and it has also been stated that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. As always, we hope we turn you onto something new!

Songs this week include:

Cicadastone – “Dime A Dozen” from Cold Chamber (2021)
A Pale Horse Named Death – “Heroin Train” from And Hell Will Follow Me (2011)
Drain STH – “Serve The Shame (acoustic)” from Horror Wrestling (1998)
EMBASSYROWE – “Volition” from Dreamliar (2024)
Failure – “Let It Drip” from Magnified (1994)
Seventh Void – “Shadow On Me” from Heaven Is Gone (2009)
My Sister’s Machine – “Wasting Time” from Diva (1992)
