Alice in Chains is reissuing the band's 1996 Unplugged live album on vinyl in honor of its 30th anniversary.

The LP is available to preorder now via Alice's webstore. It marks the first time the album has been available on vinyl in the U.S.

Alice in Chains recorded Unplugged as part of the MTV Unplugged series. The set includes stripped-down performances of songs including "Rooster," "Down in a Hole," "Would?" and "Angry Chair."

Alice went on hiatus for months following the Unplugged performance, and vocalist Layne Staley died in 2002. The band reformed in 2006 with new singer William DuVall.
