Famous for hits like "Rooster" and "Heaven Beside You," what Seattle band embodied both the heavy metal sound of the '80s and the dirty grunge sound of the '90s?

Alice in Chains' sensibility blended easily with the early '90s alternative rock trend, which explains their success. Cantrell's dismal minor-key riffs complemented Staley's tormented lyrics, resulting in a heavier grunge sound that was also somewhat slicker and radio-ready.
