Check that out and tell me that isn’t one of the best Alice in Chains songs you’ve ever heard. It’s got that usual, chromatic sludginess to it, but in a very catchy and different way. Something about the vocals are really grabbing me this time and not letting go- not that anything the band has done in the past with either vocalist has not impressed me vocally, I’m just pointing out that this song rules.
Oh, and lets not forget that the band managed to get good ol’ Satan in on their new album cover. He’s hidden, but I’ll be damned if he isn’t in there.
