+joe Vol Alice In Chains were never a pure grunge band. They were technically a Heavy Metal bands with strong alt-rock influences that just kinda got caught up in that whole scene at the time because they were from Seattle. Which worked amazingly for them, to be honest. But you're right, Post-Grunge has completely ruined Grunge's reputation. I just call most of that generic garbage Radio Rock and dismiss it.

William is a great voice and song writer. When you think that you have to replace someone on a team, you never meet your own expectations. I have heard several interviews with Jerry, and he has never talked about William "replacing" Layne. He talks about how William fits right in and is a member of AIC. Reality is Layne passed away, the band wanted to continue and they found a great artist in William who ADDS to the AIC lineage. William was never their to replace, he was their to add a level to the band and he has done so fantastically. Thank you William.

Just found out this track is from 2009, it sounds so close to the sound/vibe of the original three albums. No one tops Layne, but DuVall is a respectable replacement. This track is as good as modern rock gets, in my opinion. That is if you'd consider this modern.

+Adam Brier - Granted, yes, DuVall is more stable, but I don't share in your disdain for Layne. He gave so much to the band, both in his lyrics and his performances, and even more to the music industry. Yes, he was a serious addict, but that's nothing to shame him for- it's the music industry, furthermore the rock music industry. An industry synonymous with drugs, the temptation is everywhere. Guys like Jim Morrison, Kurt Cobain, and recently Scott Weiland, were all beyond talented- but their addictions crippled and killed them, both in the sense of potential and the literal sense. Still, that doesn't mean they deserve to be judged so harshly in the aftermath of their passing. They deserve to be mourned- it begs the question "what if?" Imagine if legends like Layne, Cobain, etc, lived into old age? If they had more time to compose more music? Would they be around today? We'll never know. But as long as there are people who can hear, the music of men like Layne will live on for him.

I was in deep depression back in 2009 when I first heard this song. It sounded relatable, it was angre but Cantrell have this gift to give angriness, a pitch of vulnerability. It got me headbanging for the first time in months. I carry this moment with me until today, Everytime I feel down, I put this song up to eleven and just stop and remember how many shit I went through, and stood for myself anyway. If you are suffering, mentally, may this song give your suffering some meaning. Today I still struggle with depression, more than 10 years after, and listening this song gives me a reminder of how strong I am, even if don't realize. So are you, stand-up, just enough bang your head, you still alive for a reason. And if you give up, You will never know. (Got very emotional, sorry) Layne must be proud.

Jerry has a clever way of writing songs which anyone with basic music education will understand. In the verse, he often uses dissonant chords and melodies, while in the refrain he goes to consonant and memorable stuff. This makes pronounced contrast in the song, making the refrain more catchy. A cunning trick. He also uses a lot of fourth interval in the vocals, and those two things together with characteristic sound make this band unique.

Honestly. I wish Layne was still here and WIlliam DuVall was an extension to their band as a singer and guitar player. I feel like Layne, Jerry, Mike Inez, sean, with the addition of William DuVall would just make AIC even greater than their days in the 90s. This is good but add Layne with Duvall and have them alternate lead vocals on different songs, AIC would be unstoppable.

Cantrell. A freakin genius writer, one of the best vocalists in rock/metal, sick guitarist. Shit, what else. That song is so heavy and low. They must be tuned down to B. Also, love the way he's always weaved dissonant chords all over the songs, and yet they fit perfectly. Legend in my book.

I'm listening to this 10 years after and it feels like the first time, it's killer, realizing they tried and tried to wait for Layne, 6 years of waiting and he unfortunately passed. There will never be another Layne, but there is an AiC and that's all that matters. William has become one of my favorite artists, and his work honoring Layne not interpreting Layne is constant and appreciated. Beautiful composition and consistent upon their works after this album.

William Duvall can harmonise with Jerry just as well as Layne could. He's also a decent axe man, giving the band a second guitar, something their didn't have with Layne. William has now been with the band longer than Layne ever was, and they're still playing music. It's now 2023. Jerry has kept the bus rolling. God bless the man. He should go on Rick Beato's channel for an interview.

They can’t hold Alice in Chains’ jock strap!! Jerry Cantrel should and will go down as one of the greatest singer/song writer/guitarist of all time. The Alice In Chains sound is unmistakable and unmatched. There unique sound sets them apart from every other rock band. Period. Rest In Peace Layne and Mike.
