@@propjoe1060 listen to him sing without Jerry. I used to stick up for him because Jerry, Sean, and Mike are still carrying on being Alice in Chains (my favorite band of all time). But, one concert I went to, Jerry didn't sing at all, it was all William. Honestly, it broke my heart because there was surely someone who could have done better than William yelling range (even while the music was playing). I felt like I paid to see someone sing karaoke and I would have enjoyed it more if nobody sang.

Nope, listen to him without Jerry. I seriously wonder why they chosse him. All of the "seriously sludgy metal" comes from just being in the band, not due to his own talent. His solo work (that I've heard so far) makes him fall flat and prior to hearing his solo work or as the only singer, I used to try to get people to give him a chance since we can all agree that there will never be an equal replacement for Layne and it seems like they chose someone who is the furthest from Layne just so they can say that they aren't "replacing Layne". I would love if they replaced him with the lead singer from the cover band Allison Chains.

Jerry can even make a frog sound good. I'm not sure why he didn't want to become the lead singer since he does it on his solo work. I can see that taking over for Layne (a sad story of the loss of a great friend/band member including the fact that he too tried hard to save Layne from himself) would cause many disapproving comments that wouldn't even be close to being fair, given his effort to keep Layne alive. And I don't mean any of this in a negative way, AIC is still my favorites band and that means a huge amount to Jerry and his talent. I have nothing but good things/intentions to say about Jerry.

I listen to AIC more too, but the Duvall factor is why that will never happen even if it enables them to continue on. They made a horrible choice with this guy, Jerry should've just took lead and have this idiot on back up or found someone that had any sense of tempo, pitch ect and I would've loved to go see them without Layne but not like this, anything but this....
