@BlindMelon1993 man, I love Nirvana and AIC, Kurt and Layne, for me, have the best voices of the music, the lyrics are impressive and make you reflect, if you are a really fan of these amazing bands, you know what I'm talking about. I think they are tied. The problem is the media that never recall high quality music...That is a Shame
stop saying AIC is underrated, is a great band!!! and everybody knows!!!! in fact this album made #1 on the Billboard Hot 200, why is this underrated?
Facelift is aggressive, Dirt is the sorrowful feeling, and the self-entitled album w/the three legged dog is just dark and somewhat scary. I love them all.
@obsessedwgaming I agree...sap and jar of flies i think are "experimental" and more spur of the moment because I think with both of those ep's they didn't have any pre conceived idea about the type of songs. sadly as I listen to more aic they get darker and more depressing as time goes by. 'get born again' and 'died' are just so dark and sorrowful. great tunes though
This song doesn't get the credit it deserves, i was reading itunes reviews on this album and everyone says they skip this song. This is easily one of my top 10 AIC songs, there is nothing better than waking up early in the morning and taking a hike through the amazing arizona desert while listening to this song and band
@lukazkal : you are totally right, with this album they re-invented themselves into an even darker and sinister sound, more than they already had!! it freaks me sometimes, almost scares me !!
@mrtattoomike812 well the crazy shit is I had been taking dream root for over a week straight before it happened.... look up african dream root and get some... see you on the other side...
I don't like how the self-titled album was recorded: the drums sound weak and I don't know why Layne decided to overdub his vocals all over the place - it actually makes him sound stale.
The songs on it are actually really good, though. I prefer live versions of these songs to the ones heard on the album. It's the recording that stinks.
That being said, I like this song cause it's actually different for them. I like the punk rock style of it all.
I love AIC and decided to listen to the few songs I hevent heard. Like most AIC songs its ok for the first listen but during the 4th im gonna love this song.
This song is possibly one of the creepiest songs that I've ever heard, next to Frankie Teardrop by Suicide. I see songs as colors, and this one is a swirling electric storm of bright green that emanates the horrid hopelessness and despair of heroin addiction (which I hope never to experience). It's very disturbing though... such an inconspicuous track, less than 3 minutes, never performed live... yet so... compelling. It's very odd and creepy, like a hand reaching out to grab you into the song.
in regards to Frogs, it might be haunting, but awful is a bit harsh for a song that I consider to be quite solid. that is, unless you mean something entirely different.
@jimrobertsid thankyou!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i just chewed sum1 out ovr that on here yesterday #1 its disrespectful to layne in my opinion and #2 if u luv nirvana/ kurt cobain so fukin godamn much that u cant shutup about them long enough 2 watch and/or think about something else for like 2min and 45 seconds then go watch ur fuking nirvana and leave alice in chains alone i mean do they comment about aic when there watching nirvana videos? my guess would be no! wonder y that is?
I have to respectfully disagree. Though I do like AIC, I LOVE Nirvana. Mainly for Kurt Cobain - he used neat techniques like piano strings on guitars, etc, very creative. Loved his lyrics and great scream. Novoselic is a great bassist, and as much as I personally don't care for Grohl, he's a good drummer (that physically hurt to say). He should stick to drumming, though lol. But to me, Kurt is the best. Always will be in my mind. I didn't think Cobain was/is overrated at all. Peace!
Jesus H. Christ, you r on crack!!! Ever hear of the Foo Fighters? Novoselic? where the f*ck is he? Please, for the love of God, get a vasectomy and quit spewing your ingnorant sh*t!!
who cares about a piano string on a guitar that he couldn't play half as well as Grohl, or a quarter as well as Cantrell. Nirvana made one good album, Every AIC album was killer....
There is no "right" or "wrong" way to play guitar. Dave Grohl is a pussy, and a phony. I like how the only song Dave co-wrote on In Utero was called "Scentless Apprentice", with a chorus of "Go Away!" LOL Gotta love Kurt. Well, I do. I could care less what you think of my opinion. And that's all it is - my opinion. Now chill out. I never said AIC wasn't good.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
srry man..so far iv listened to almost half of the album and this is far from their best. This band had a hard time of making a perfect album. Great band but Im srry to tell u that nirvana was better ;) Im guan say alices best album is either jar of flies or face lift. this last one is really a downer but this tends to happens to most bands.
have to agree the self titled album is the best...its the most AIC of all their albums if that makes sense.epitomizes their sound..well, thats just in my opinion!
Tripod is very different imo compared to facelift and dirt but my personal fav is facelift. all 3 are amazing and have there own unique sound. AIC rule!
So awsome, better than the shit thats "Cool" Nowadays.
