bt88 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Listen here:http://www.metalinsider.net/new-music/new-...-check-my-brainDefinitely better than the other song they released, and that song may work better in the actual context of the album. Either way this one has the trademark creepy guitar grooves and Jerry dominates the track. I think its safe to say AIC are back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Eyes Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 It's alright, still not that impressed to be honest.Better than A Looking In View thankfully at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobodys_Fault Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 I'm interested in hearing the song they did with elton john.. hopefully it will be better than this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turn_It_Up Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 (edited) Dig it. Big time. "Woozy" guitar riffs or Bust!!! Edited August 14, 2009 by Turn_It_Up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turn_It_Up Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 (edited) Love this track. How can anyone not get off on this?!!Slash better have at least one woozy guitar riff on the solo album or will be sorely disappointed.Seriously, this shit ROCKS...BTW, AIC finding DuVall and releasing this type of hard rockin' music should be the blueprint for VR. Singers are out there, now find the right one... Edited August 14, 2009 by Turn_It_Up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThinkAboutYou Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 (edited) not very impressed with either of the first two songs Edited August 15, 2009 by ThinkAboutYou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneway23 Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 first two songs are too plodding and underdeveloped. There's nothing here but a riff, quite literally. The songs sadly seem to lack the movement and sheer drive of something like "Them Bones" or "Damn That River." This doesn't necessarily prevent them from being decent tunes, it's just that the ingenuity present in most of their prior songwriting is severely lacking here.

This doesn't necessarily prevent them from being decent tunes, it's just that the ingenuity present in most of their prior songwriting is severely lacking here.It's Layne.The vocals and guitar and everything else the lyrics are pretty weak and you can't understand them half the time. I like the dirty gritty sound but c'mon we should be able to understand the lyrics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bt88 Posted August 15, 2009 Author Share Posted August 15, 2009 as a hardcore, old school AIC fan Ive given this track a bunch of honest listens and I can say I love it. Love the riff, love the harmonies and the catchy chorus. I still think it sounds like a Jerry solo song though. I guess thats the best we can hope for. I dont think AIC should have to die just because Layne Staley made some poor choices Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G n F n R Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Thanks for the link. B) It's gonna take me a bitr to get used to William Duvall's vocals, but they sound solid. It took me awhile to get used Scott Weiland in VR, but that worked out for awhile. Alice in Chains sounded great back in '07, when I saw them perform with Velvet Revolver.

Shooting Star Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 I miss Layne so bad, he was a terrible lost. But this song exceeded my expectations. In fact I really enjoyed.I also liked the Cd cover."AIC's fine, somebody check my brain" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
