Voices is the third single from Alice in Chains' 2013 album, The Devil Put
Dinosaurs Here. The song peaked at number 3 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and 18 on the Rock Aiplay
chart.
This was the first song written for The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here. It was penned by singer-guitarist Jerry
Cantrell in 2011 before he went into hospital to fix his damaged shoulder cartridge. He told Grammy.com:
"Before I had the surgery I think I demoed 'Voices' really quick, that was a kind of quick song and
came together within a couple of days of just me messing around here at the house. It was right after
tour and it was a good, strong song and so I sent it around to everybody and everybody liked it and
I thought, 'F--k, that's good.' That was the first thing that came together on the record, so I knew
there was a good song there."
