During Alice in Chains' transition from bluesy metal to grunge metal, they released an EP which raised the standard for beauty in the world of grunge. "Sap" starts off with "Brother", a hauntingly beautiful work of poetry, followed by "Got Me Wrong", a more upbeat tune which stands out prominently on the Clerks soundtrack. "Right Turn" is a good song with a who's who guest list of the Seattle rock scene. "Am I Inside" starts off creepy, but progresses into a great rock song with fantastic backing vocals, and proves itself the benchmark for sublimely dissonant harmonizing. "Sap" is the turning point for one of the greatest bands of the 90's, and proves itself listenable time and time again. There is also an untitled fifth track which is tolerable for only one listen and hardly worth mentioning.

Sap is definetly one of the best albums ever.It starts out with the melodic but still hard rocking "Brother" in which Layne Staley is backed by Ann Wilson of Heart, and has some seriously good guitar riffs and their signature voice mixing. Next is the classic "Got Me Wrong" (which is also on "Unplugged" and "Nothing Safe: Best of the Box") which is often considered the best song on this album and definetly lives up to the title, with lyrics by Jerry Cantrell such as "I haven't felt like this in so long Wrong, in a sense too far gone from love." The third song is "Right Turn" where Staley sings with Chris Cornell of Soundgarden and Mark Arm of Mudhoney and is one of the best vocal mixings of all time. The last listed track is "Am I Inside" which I think is the best on this album after "Got Me Wrong" because of the guitar and the great vocals. the bonus track is a bizare so called "Love song" that would better fit on Facelift than Sap. Overall this a gret album.

Close the curtains, light a candle or two and lie back, close your eyes and drift away to this amazing EP. Haunting, atmospheric the 4 main tracks are superb. The trademark AIC vocal harmonies are here for all to hear. Recorded after Layne started using drugs but before he became too lost in his battle. This showcases the softer introspective side of the band. A must for fans of the band and a good starting point for those who like meloow guitar based music.

Peacuful AIC
The songs are all ballads. "Brother" and "Got Me Wrong" are very good. They play very good acoustic. Read more

This Is Better Than Most Band's Full Length Albums
This almost all acoustic EP shows guitarist Jerry Cantrell's talent doesn't necessarily need to be loud to be appreciated. Read more

A mellow break.
A nice change of pace after the grittiness of "Facelift"...and it really kind of prepares you for the jolt of "Dirt". Read more

Good but not Great
Make no word about it, this is a very good disc. Extremely short, but still a good disc. However, the only songs that really ever appealed to me on it were Brother and Got Me... Read more

This five song EP is just grand. I love every song, and I just wish AIC could have found strength to record whole albums. but every song on this recording is just fantastic. Read more

No exception, brothers...
Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell... In fact, these guys are worth being respected enough about their voice and technique alone. Read more

Great music, great band, but......
Unfortunately, Ann Wilson decided to peek her head into this project. This could potentially have been a perfect album, but her vocals take too much away from the songs. Read more
