Grind (song)
"Grind" is a song by American rock band Alice in Chains and the lead single from their album ''Alice in Chains'' (1995). It serves as the opening track to the album but, despite being its first single, did not experience the radio longevity of some of its contemporaries. The song was included on the compilation albums ''Nothing Safe: Best of the Box'' (1999), ''Music Bank'' (1999), ''Greatest Hits'' (2001), and ''The Essential Alice in Chains'' (2006). Jerry Cantrell sings lead vocals on the song with Layne Staley harmonizing with him. To date, this is the only publicly released AIC song to use standard E-tuning.
==Lyrics==
"Grind" seems to address the various rumors that surrounded the band at the time. The opening lines, "In the darkest hole, you'd be well advised/Not to plan my funeral before the body dies", seem to be addressing the rumors that the band had broken up and the many rumors of vocalist Layne Staley's death that had occurred frequently around this time. In the liner notes of 1999's ''Music Bank'' box set collection, guitarist Jerry Cantrell said of the song:
That was pretty much at the height of publicity about canceled tours, heroin, amputations, everything, thus it was another "FUCK YOU for saying something about my life" song. Any single rumor you can imagine, I've heard. I've been dead a few times, Layne's been dead countless times and lost limbs. I get on the phone every time I hear a new one, "Hey Layne, radio in New York says you lost two more fingers." "Oh really? Cool." I'd spoof ''The Six Million Dollar Man''; "Since technology's moved on it only cost us 2 million to put Layne back together and we got better parts."〔Liner notes, ''Music Bank'' box set. 1999.〕
