New Alice in Chains Song

I really like the new album. It's not Layne, obviously, bu the new lead singer sounds a lot like him on a number of the tracks. Overall, a good listen from start to finish.

I am at their show in Toronto right now. Unfortunately we missed MastodonN but we caught the entire Deftones set. They were fucking awesome, on fire like NBA Jam! I'd never seen them live before this. Just waiting for AIC to get on stage now.

Streetcar was late!

The main event of the show kicked so much ass, though.

I'm beatin'!

Sounded good to me. Hope it's even half as enjoyable as Black Gives Way to Blue.

That's true. Having listened to all their albums multiple times, I can't find one bad song. Even the great bands will tend to have a subpar song here or there, but I can't find any on their albums. Certainly, they have songs that blow away others, but they are pretty damn consistent with their music.

I have to say, as well, that I love that they have kept up with that mid-90's Grunge style for thier videos. When I try to think of another band who still does that kind of thing, I come up blank..

I'm sure Toronto will show up on that list eventually.. but I am so tempted to fly to Philadelphia for that show, either way.

"No Excuses" may be...no IS one of the most perfect songs ever crafted and recorded.

It's definitely fun to play on Guitar Hero. I LOVED their late 90's hit, "Get Born Again". The video was so fucking dark and twisted. Fantastic riff and a killer bass line too.

Have to admit that both the song and video are both growing on me a lot.

The song has a vintage AiC vibe but also enough of a difference that it could stand on its own too.

So, 11 years ago, on day one, I picked up "Degradation Trip" by Jerry Cantrell. I've enjoyed it ever since. Yesterday, I was at a used CD store and came across a 2 disc version that I had never seen before called, "Degradation Trip Volumes 1 and 2". Where has this thing been the past 11 years? I've listened to it 3 times since yesterday afternoon, and it kicks ass.

Am I the only one who sees Jeff Daniels everytime I see post-haircut Jerry Cantrell?
