Alice in Chains - Rooster (Jerry Cantrell only)

  • Guitar + backing vocals, this time just "Here they come to snuff the rooster" and "Yeah here comes the rooster".
    For me it was pretty much unusual to hear him here without Layne Staley. Sounds so differently...
    Vocals: 1:55, 3:20 and 4:59.
    Unfortunately, due to the particular way I went to exclude lead vocals of Layne Staley (removed center-panned vocals), Jerry Cantrell is panned only left and right, that's why at 1:55 he may sound louder and less natural than in the original recording. In other places that effect is lessened by a louder guitar. Probably you should try to lower down the volume of the whole video, that's it.
    Huge credits go to Joh Ph for making those multitracks available for my mixing experiments!
    I don't have rights for the song and only publish it to show Jerry Cantrell's power of creating songs.

    Jerry's tone is so gnarly but clear at the same time. It's heavy and saturated, but you can hear every note and I love that about him.

      A lot of bands of this caliber record “wet” and “dry” tracks. You have the base track (dry) that is the guitar “tone”. Then you layer another track on top of that that’s saturated a bit. And combined together you get a solid guitar tone that’s clear and muddy in one.

    Respect for emotional rescue living on the inside.The melody and lyrics easily convey the jungle of honoring one's own country and the high cost of dying. Jerry Cantrell understood the perils of the Vietnam war and awakens the rest of mankind lest they forget.

      the simple two chord with a flanger chorus pedal combo make it really good and then with just a little gain on the amp then that distortion pedal boost it and pushes that nice gritty tone makes it perfect for clean and dirty

      @joen5970 Год назад +2

      I've been experimenting a bit at home and I'm very close with a flanger and a chorus at the same time for the clean part. In my case it was an EVH flanger in combination with a MXR Analog Chorus over the "clean" channel of a Splawn Quick Rod. For the speakers I used Ownhammer Greenback IRs. I know it's not what Jerry Cantrell used but my guess for the clean sound is a combination of a flanger and a chorus.

    The arrangement and composition of this song is absolutely masterful. I feel like the lyrics are even clumsily matched together if you look at them line by line but when you take the song as a whole it's unbelievably powerful. When I notice things like awkward or seemingly off the wall lyrical choices it actually makes me happy because I see the human imperfection; it's the struggle to communicate things that are felt so deeply and the desperate reach for the right words but the writer comes up short because the reality is too much to fit into a song and all they can do is give a painfully brief glimpse of the true story.

    • @redraven3769
      @redraven3769  2 года назад +4

      It was Layne Staley falsetto, layered at least twice or thrice. There are few live shows especially after 2005, where Cantrell sings or co-sings the intro, and he sounds different to Staley's or DuWall's manner.
      So, on studio, Cantrell only sings the pre-chorus.
