  • This entire album is amazing. Degredation Trips Vol. 1 and 2 are great but harder to get into. Cantrell is one of the most overlooked guitar riff powerhouses in the world.

  • All I know is you could not pay me to get into that water. Talk about a snake pit.

  • Obviously, Layne Staley is one of the greatest and most recognizable, not to mention powerful, vocalists in the history of rock music and his impact on Alice in Chains is seismic. Having said that, I think Jerry Cantrell is a really underrated vocalist and the duo of he and Staley made AIC's music that much more awesome.

  • THIS SONG REMINDS ME OF ALOT OF PEOPLE, BAD PEOPLE THAT IS.

  • Puts me into a spin dig

  • Any music video for this song. can any one help me to get that please.

  • just enjoy this music. stop comparing AIC, nirvana, and all else. If you hate it, so be it, they're all great

  • Props to Jerry

  • hmm i like jerry cantrell i wonder if this song is as good as the oth- [instantly starts headbanging]

  • Alice In Chains and Nirvana? You can't compare these bands. That's like you compare ice-cream and diarrhea liquid. AIC forever!!!

  • There is a certain raw energy that is associated with this song and album that cannot be found on Degradation Trip... I saw Jerry play live at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion here in Houston/The Woodlands in 1998 (the ill-fated year I started dating my ex-wife LMFAO) with Metallica and Days Of The New and Jerry stole the show... He led off with this song and I thought I was gonna drop my joint...

  • i never liked aic all that much but this guys great. i think hes so much better without them but hey, thats just my opinion.

  • This was a good record, Everybody focused on degredtion trip, but I thought this was better, But Degradation trip was awsome too.

  • jerry cantral is a fucking badass greatest guitarist/singer ever

  • great album...cant find it in massachusettssssssssssssssssss­s.....lost my tape..want the cd......

  • good shit

  • Great song . Does anyone know where I can find accurate tabs for it?

  • totally awesome

  • Fucking can't get enough of this song!!

  • This actually was never supposed to be a AIC album. That is incorrect info.

  • This sounds kinda like a nirvana song

  • is it true that this should have been the 4th AIC album ?

  • Fuck yea!!! rad tune!

  • This is my favorite song from Boggy Depot. Great album but I like Degradation Trip more.

  • I love that album! I tried uploading it here on YT but I got a copyright notice from WMG claiming that it wouldn't be available in all countries to view, and when I checked the search results for my videos they weren't even listed :(

  • jerry cantrell es uno de los personajes del rock que admiro mucho!!

  • great even more shit just what i needed prick

  • thats badass that he lives in boggy depot hes not that far from where i used to live in muskogee just a straight line down to

    atoka

  • where is boggy depot?

  • @PezoCon I think Oklahoma

  • Killer riff.

  • nice

  • A lot of the songs on the Boggy depot album such as this were actually meant for the next AIC album but Layne wasnt in a fit state at the time so Jerry decided to do a solo album instead. Its a pity cos that would have been really awesome..

  • @fentdog84 yeah boggy depot is already bomb, with layne....legandary

  • @fentdog84 It is still a great album regardless of Layne's sad but necessary exclusion.

  • Comment removed

  • Nirvana was fucking overrated

  • Why compare these bands? Nirvana and Alice In Chains are both awesome bands in their own perspective, they both brought a different sound to the table which was their own. That to me is talent and it is clearly seen in all their albums.

    Stop being women and bitching, lets all be glad Alice In Chains have made a come back so we can all enjoy the music.

    Now back on the topic, this is a great song!

  • @RoosterRipper alice in chains kick the face of nirvana still tho

  • man i come on hear to listen to some music, nd its like ive come on a megadeth (metallica comparisons) vid, the amount of comments commenting bout whoes better. Fuckin shutup the lot of ya nd leave ya gayboy hate msgs to PM's.

  • qwit comparing kurt to chains,lol nirvana was punk alice was metal lol, grunge is not a genera, aic was way more musical, kurt was not to talented but was so differant and was able to turn 3 chords into a masterpeice of noise,,stop bashing 2 g reat bands

  • Fucking excellent song, Jerry Cantrell is GOD!

  • Hell yeah TheXkinger, you are right about that one my friend. Just got done yelling at Cantrell at a concert here in WA. I waited till it got quiet and screamed, "Fuck Ya Jerry". He heard me and looked right at me, I then proceded to scream "Your the fucking man!". He smiled nodded and continued to jam out. It was surreal. Well anyway, this song sounds so much like it would have been an alice song. Like way way to much. Badass song, I've learned to like Jerry more than Layne, that's hard to find

  • @PezoCon I totally agree with you bro .... I saw jerry with alice in chains at the ARmoRy I was in front of Mike Innez and it was totally special they so interact with their hardcore fans pretty coool....... I wish they were coming back to this area

  • 'Cause Jerry's a better writer and much better musician

  • @ComaAlpha .. not disagreeing with that

  • @ComaAlpha Ya but Layne was a better singer to me thou

  • @Doomhead22 I think I was comparing Kurt and Jerry.

  • @ComaAlpha Think Jerry was a better singer than Kurt too lol and def better guitar player

  • @Doomhead22 That goes without saying, but the appeal of Nirvana wasn't musical proficiency, haha.

  • First thing Nirvana does not suck, the entire band had talent. Now i love Alice in chains but you guys are just straight shit talking.

  • IM SO FUCKIN SICK OF SMART MOUTH LITTLE HOMOSEXUALS ON YOUTUBE YOU NEED TO BE SHOT IN THE FUCKIN FACE bitches

  • so you need to be shot in the face too?

  • God fucken bless this man for bringing back Alice and saving us from the horrors that is music today.

  • Dude youve said it all

  • its not Alice without layne...

  • Amén!

  • Great song!

  • "injected concrete" wtf is that

  • concrete in a tube

  • ANYWAYS.... Awesome song. These comments are ridiculous. Jerry Cantrell is the MAN!!! So glad AIC is back

  • when I came here, to the comments part, I thought I was going to find comments of the video.

    I was wrong...

  • I know. Ridiculous. Awesome track

  • This is such a rip off of Paul McCartney & Wings song called 'Jet'.

  • hahahah THE WINGS???????? go suck another bag of dicks FAGGOT! hahahahaha

  • Fuck you ,douchebag. You look like a bag of dicks.

  • you've never seen me before dumb shit. bag of dicks? thats clever. HOW ORIGINAL. Where did u get that phrase from?

  • i believe he got it from the hilarious comedian named louis ck who quoted someone who told him to "go suck a bag of dicks" in his comedy central stand up comedy special.

  • you're an idiot

  • obviously you are an idiot because only an idiot would call someone else an idiot for stating a fact. nothing idiotic about what i said.. "go suck a bag of dicks" IS a quote from a stand up special on comedy central. look it up u moron. u must be stupid to call me an idiot for that because there was absolutely nothing stupid about my comment.. everything down to the spelling and grammar was correct and lacked no intelligence..

  • shut up dumb shit

  • let em havit

  • He's right though...that's from Louis CK's stand up...that bit is hilarious!

  • pretty sure it was from a stand-up special for HBO, so besides the overt bastardization of the word "you," (is it that hard to type, really?) it lacked intelligence in that respect.

  • bag of dicks :L

    lmao whats that person on xDD

  • haha louis ck

  • This song is beast.

  • i agree nagem this song would have been beastly its ok though

  • miss Layne..

  • This would have been awesome if Layne could have sang with Jerry

  • awesome!!!! This should have been alice in chains song, that is if Layne's problems were'nt so bad...

  • @AndreyACM

    He doesn't do too many solos because its out of place with the music he plays. He's perfectly capable of shredding and epic solos (listen to Facelift again from front to back, and tell me there's not some shredding worthy of Eddie Van Halen), but it would seem awkward and shoehorned in with most of his and AIC's songs. Angry Chair, for example, is a phenomenal song, and the guitar solo is pretty badass, but it doesn't quite fit with the atmosphere of the song or the rest of Dirt.

  • BroadwayRonMexico, I 100% agree with you. Not every heavy metal or hard rock song needs to ed up being a solo shredding contest. Take the music for what it is, and enjoy it. This song here is killer.

  • I agree. This song is killer... because it does rock (and actually has an appropriate solo) and is also very melodic.

  • god jerrys awsome....

  • Jerry doesn't have the voice for this song.

  • wat the fuck are u talking about his voice and guitar make this song

  • Go listen to N'Sync

  • Jerry is God

  • JERRY CANTRELL IS THE FUCKING MAN!!!!

  • Music specifically composed for adrenaline sports.

  • hahha guitarist player? wtf????

  • Why, because he doesn't beat off all over the fret board?

  • He doesen show the skill of an old heavy metal player. (In his songs)

  • I'd say he's on par with heavy metal artists, Jerry's got the chops to play like Iommi and the like, but like any good guitarist he just plays to fit the style of music best. Just because you can play an ass-load of notes really fast doesn't make you a better guitarist, its all about playing what sounds good. Why play a 100 notes to get the same response as you could get with one?

  • Makes god riffs, but im talking about the solos

  • I don't know, he's good enough to play with Metallica, and Ozzy; his solos aren't as crazy as say Marty Friedman or Randy Rhoads because he mostly plays grunge which isn't solo intensive like metal. If he played like Vai in his songs it would just be out of place. Adam Jones of Tool is the same way.

  • of that i am talking about, i think he can play every kind of solos, but he dont make

    too harder solos on hes song

  • I have to agree with this one, well said

  • He can play like Jimi Hendrix, but he doesn't do it because he worried that the media won't like it.

  • Thats right.

    He plays an other style

  • Many other guitarists can play like Hendrix used to...

  • Of course not...fanboyism makes people go blind.

    I like Hendrix too, but there are whole heaps of talented guitarists capable to play any of Jimi's stuff, some of them are terrific composers too.

  • that's not what you said

  • bullshit many guitarist are better then Jimi

  • really?

  • Honestly i like Jerry Cantrell more

  • Yea, but Staley added that element to his songs, that harmony that just made Alice in Chains sound PERFECT. Love that new song out, "Black turns blue" that Jerry wrote for him....awesome stuff.

  • I didn't say shit about writing songs thats where you fail.

  • Plenty can. Nobody cares. This isn't about Jimi Hendrix.

  • jimi hendrix is god fuckin alice in chains song man in the box lol has jimi hendrix influence.

  • Dude you fail

  • LOL bs nobody can compose like jimi hendrix

  • LOL nope nobody not Chuck from Death...not Jeff Waters from Annihilator..not Pink Floyd..not Sabbath...Not Van Halen.. not Alice in Chains NO ONE!! how old are you?

  • no they cant write songs like jimi hendrix...where are they? how old are you? only jimi hendrix can write songs like jimi hendrix, jimi hendrix couldnt write chuck schuldiners music same shit ur a stupid fuck grow up

  • whatever your still suckin dick look at your comments

  • Comment removed

  • LOL now your really suckin dick look at you threatning me through a computer just remove your comments man i can tell you didnt grow up with me you have to be like 16

  • no id kick ur fuckin face in if you were saying this dumb shit infront of me.

    ur some faggot kid think he safe behind his pc say any dumbass shit he wants.

    SHUT UR CYBERDORK COCKSUCKING MOUTH FUCKIN POSER

    PROBLEY HEARD JERRY CANTRELL ON GUITAR QUEERO.

  • who the hell would want to ripp off nirvana and anyway alice in chains did not rip off Nirvana...Nirvana sucks DICK

  • they sound nothing alike dude your so dumb you have to be trolling me. Go on a youtube video called alice in chains vs nirvana and more people will say alice in chains is better

  • yea i bet you suck a lot of dick too

  • Okay just take a look at your comments your just a sorry Nirvana fan that is mad because more true musicians prefer Alice in chains.. I dont care about if you play guitar. The reason you delete all your comments is because people trash you left and right. If Nirvana was still around today i think it would take them 4 albums to take on Black Gives Way to Blue. Nirvana would suck today face it. Just go on Nirvana vs Alice in chains and see who more people prefer. And dont write me again

  • @bigmonkeyman44 well just for arguments sake, say it does sound similar, but that was I cant remeber was on the Facelift album, and that came out in '89/'90, now i dont really know when papercuts came out, but i'd have to say if anyone ripped anything, it was Kurt, and dont get me wrong, i honestly love Nirvana, im just sayin

  • alice in chains man in the box is one of the biggest alice in chains rip off songs ever.

    without jimi hendrix ur dumbass jerry cantrell wouldnt exist now fuck off you fuckin poser sack.

  • Ok this is my last comment to you Jimi hendrix and Alice in Chains are 2 diffrent styles so start listning to some other kinds of music and stop trying to prove a point. Because I would rather listen to the 6 Alice in Chains albums over all Jimi's albums

  • sarah, have you ever beat off?

  • sarah38e:

    LMAO!! to your response to the guy below! good one!!

  • OK, i wrong.

    Sorry

    See my other comments

  • Nice one. :)

  • I'm gonna guess Break My Back then??? Starts off through windows by my bed...miles away I rest my weary head...next to you...Tried to drown my hate...underneath an ocean I still wait??? My patience is wearing thin lol...but I'm trying to help you out

  • whats the 2nd song from this cd?

  • Cut You In

  • ok maybe not the second..its a slow song near the beggining of the cd..might be the third then..kinda sad song

  • Well 3-6 are all kinda sad, but that's just Jerry's style. You might be thinking of My Song which is the third, Love strong, mine gone, but still have the time to sing my song. Or the one that begins on piano is Settling Down and that's track four

  • no its not either of those...its not a popular one...fuck it i give up..lol..its starts out with a distorted guitar and its kinda muted a bit

  • timeless song from a timeless artist

  • prat

  • You folks all hit the mark. Jerry was almost AIC, but without Layne it can never be.

    But Jerry's solo stuff kicks ass. Does anybody know if he has anything new coming out?

  • He's got something new coming out as Alice in Chains

  • such an amazing album...i have had to convince a lot of my friends to get into jerry's music...and none of them have been dissapointed....ONE OF THE GREAT MUSICIANS OF OUR TIME

  • exellent

  • the acts of pilate(dunno about the spelling)

  • you are joking right? Puddle of mud wasn't even around when cantrell wrote these songs.

  • ohhhh....sorry, you are commenting on the photo....my bad....clever observation.

  • puddle of mudd sucks and so do you

  • Cantrell has not been recognized for everything he has done . Not many people know this but he is the one that wrote most of the songs of AIC he wrote Rooster, Would , And many others isnt that amazing.

  • everyone knows that.

  • your wrong

  • any alice in chains fan knows that

  • This song is just freakin' amazing. I've always loved it. Thanks for posting it

  • prolly my fave on the album. nice solo riff by jerry. a legend

  • Jerry Cantrell just doesnt get the props he deserves for his Guitar and Song ability. i mean hes fucking awsome

  • I only heard this once, or twice on the radio when it first came out and the chorus is always going through my head. Thanks for posting this great song.

  • Thank you for posting this tune!! Jerry Cantrell Fucking jams.

    This album should have been No.#1

  • Love this damn song! Boggy Depot was an awesome album

  • Somebody should post vids of the shows he did for this album and Degradation Trip
