It reflects where we are now as a band, but also honors where we came from. We’re looking forward to sharing it with our fans and taking it on the road.”
The announcement of a world tour alongside the album release has fans eager to see Alice in Chains back on stage. The tour, titled *”Echoes Tour 2024,”* will take the band across North America, Europe, and Asia, performing both new tracks and timeless classics like **”Man in the Box,” “Rooster,”** and **”Would?”** The band has promised a massive stage production that will bring their brooding, atmospheric sound to life in a way that fans have never experienced before.
As Alice in Chains prepares to embark on this new chapter, the excitement around their return underscores the band’s enduring influence in rock and metal. For fans, this marks the beginning of what could be one of the most epic comebacks in recent music history.
