Future Projects:
While fans eagerly anticipate new material from Alice in Chains, Cantrell has indicated that the band is focusing on non-album-related projects at the moment. He mentioned, “There’s a couple of things that we’re working on, like non-album related… we’ve got a few creative irons in the fire.” This suggests that while a new album may not be imminent, the band remains active in other creative endeavors.
