The fact this was just something they did at the house just to jam together makes it that much better!! Shout out to anyone reading this and you from Louisiana 🖤🤘🏼

[@kevinviel6177]

This is a great song, indeed! I will add another band that needs a shout out. I have played several of their songs for non-metalheads to great acclaim. The only other song that reach that was "You're sure" by Rumble Militia, although "1916" by Motorhead surprise many (especially those who NEVER heard Lemmy in an interview). The Louisiana band is Acid Bath ("Kite string pops" and "Bones of baby dolls" are generally well liked by a more general public). Dax Riggs has some GREAT solo work, too.

[@jesserapp3473]

I disagree this is all pepper.

[@michaelbergin8807]

My understanding is the actual songwriting is mainly Phil & Pepper. In any event, the deep dark heavy soulfulness, dynamic moods and changes, anti-hero inspiring harmonies so masterfully woven together makes this album not only a classic, but the perfect counterpart to Temple Of The Dog's legendary city /regional supergroup tribute offering. What a splendid 1A - 1B charged by a pack of alpha dogs who had who were inspired to step back and make more heart-felt, soulful, heavy but cathartic songs that could reach audiances well beyong even what they could have imagined. Yes, it's mature beyond it's years. So while great songwriting is crucial, even then, it's only a part of the entire equation to creating a masterwork.

[@chadrowe8452]
