This whole album is like a drug.
Lots of respect to Jerry Cantrell and of course the band, Sean Kinney is an amazing drummer
Jerry Cantrell is one of the best songwriters ever. Anyway such a good song, one of the best album openers ever. Good stuff can never go wrong with AIC
You’re right. He’s a fantastic songwriter!
This track kicked the door open and screamed in your face.
Every song from this album is amazing.
A criminally under-appreciated band.
Oh shut up with that shit. They were one of the most successful and influential bands to come out of the 90's, or of any decade.
@@butchvito bro maybe he means like they didn't recieve any awards or really not mentioned by rock/roll hall of fame. Which shouldn't matter but i also found weird as to why they never hyped up alice as much as like Pearl Jam or Nirvana.
@@butchvito in that sense. AIC don't need those awards or accolades, they legends either way
@@esoterica412 Anyone who cares about Rock N Roll Hall of Fame is a mark anyway. Awards? Who keeps track of awards bands receive? When you mention 90's rock, AIC is one of the bands always mentioned. Just because Nirvana sell more records doesn't mean AIC are underappreciated.
@@butchvito no i know i agree with you. I don’t see awards as THE thing that makes them legends. It’s their influence, and the works they put out. I love alice more than pearl and nirvana. What im saying is a lot of people think that way, that just because a band is more mainstream or has more accolades, that’s it better than other bands or the greatest just for being inducted, and it’s not true
You could never go wrong with Alice In Chains but Them Bones is just a masterpiece and just so happens to be one of my favorite songs from these guys. I say songs because it’s impossible to only have one favorite song from these guys … I can’t it’s just not possible.
"Dirt" and "Jar of Flies" are 2 of the greatest albums of ALL time gentleman.
Nick, how about some "Rotten Apple" or "Don't Follow" from the JoF album ? You should show Ryan the other side of Alice in Chains.
🤘
Dirt is a masterpiece for sure. Every song is awesome 🥰🥰React more Alice in Chains guys!
The weird time signature is 7/8. When the vocal harmonies kick in for what amounts to the chorus it switches to 4/4, then switches back to 7/8 for the verses.
May be notated in 7/8, but as a drummer I feel it more as 7/4. Especially since the drummer is playing quarter note open hi hat during verses. It's in 7 regardless:)
@@carlgibbons5777 Yeah, I'd agree with that. Looking back, I can't fathom why I wrote it the way I did.
@@chrisd7047 You were right, definitely 7/8 and not 7/4. The tempo of the 4/4 chorus is the give away
I’ve posted this before on other reactors……Exactly 2:30 song of perfection…..Great opening - Guitar riff sounds “out of tune” but instantly makes your head bob - drums that have a “weird off beat” signature - Layne sings a catchy AF chorus & then a tasty PERFECT limited solo…..Just 2:30 of greatness
Ahhhhhh!!! That’s how you open a masterpiece like Dirt 😎 Next destination in AIC journey has to be Would?
those 7/8 time signature parts feel just like a freight train coming at you
Any alice in chains song is perfect for Halloween
The head bobbing is hilarious. Even having heard it still leaves the bob confused and out of synch lmao
The song is in 7/8 time signature, if no one has said it yet. Meaning there are 7 beats per measure 😁 to be more specific, the verses and riff are in 7/8 but the chorus is in basic 4/4
when I came across this album titled "Facelift" by a new band called Alice in Chains I just bought it almost as an afterthought...then 'We Die Young' exploded through my system and...need to say any more? What a band.
🦋Every Alice In Chains Song Is Fire! Great Song Choice 🤘😏
Rip Layne Gone But Never Forgotten, May His Memory Live On Through His Music Forever Rockin' Our Speakers!
🕯🕯Happy Season Of The Witch Guys!🕯🕯
🦋I Was Just Thinking Earlier. The Last 2 Years, Was A Rollercoaster Of A Ride. Though The Music Always Makes Up For The Nonsensical Drama's We All Endure In Life. Without Music I Do Not Think I'd Have Survived Life For This Long. You Have No Idea How Much It's Appreciated. That You Guys Tk The Time Out Of Your Busy Lives. To Share Even A Tiny Part Of Your Day With Everyone 🎶& The Music Plays On...
They started one of their concerts with this song. I was slightly inebriated and almost wet my pants! Lol
I unwittingly heard this song at the age of six, because an instrumental midi version is used in one of the levels in "DOOM II: Hell on Earth" (1994).
Alice in Chains is so great! Of course, many great hits with Lane, but a big hit in 2009 with William DuVall - Check My Brain - that's worth reacting to as well.
Great reaction guys!!! Alice in Chains is my favorite band, Laynes voice is one of a kind.
The time signature is 7/8 as opposed to the standard 4/4.
Choruses are 4/4.
REACT TO LOVE, HATE, LOVE - LIVE AT THE MOORE
BLEED THE FREAK - LIVE AT THE MOORE
Totally agree!
Best AIC live performance ever!
I fell in love with grunge as soon as I heard it.
Guitarist Jerry Cantrell said he wrote THEM BONES about "mortality, that one of these days we'll end up a pile of bones." He told RIP magazine in 1993: "THEM BONES is pretty cut and dried. It's a little sarcastic, but it's pretty much about dealing with your mortality and life. Everybody's going to die someday. Instead of being afraid of it, that's the way it is: so enjoy the time you've got. Live as much as you can, have as much fun as possible. Face your fear and live. I had family members die at a fairly early age; so I've always had kind of a phobia about it. Death freaks me out. I think it freaks a lot of people out. It's the end of life, depending on your views. It's a pretty scary thing. THEM BONES is trying to put that thought to rest. Use what you have left, and use it well."
The drummer is Sean Kinney. He developed the heavy kick-drum early on in AIC's formation and that heavy kick-drum is the foundation of the AIC sound.
When Layne sang THEM BONES live, there were times he didn't do the 4 screams at the beginning but will do the screams in the middle. When they did their first KISS concert in Tiger Stadium in Detroit in 1996, Layne didn't do the first 4 screams... but the screams in the middle of the song.... it was the definition of screaming pain.
Layne Staley's vocal range can run rings around any other grunge singer in my opinion. Layne could sing the phone book and never hit a wrong note. Even at the end of his life, with no teeth and a lisp, his voice, wit and humor were all still there. Layne's voice and vocal range was so powerful he did NOT need auto tune or pro-tools until he lost his teeth and had a lisp around 1998, and even then he still killed the vocals.
Barrett Martin (who played with Layne in Mad Season) said that when he stood to the side of the stage, he could hear the sound of Layne's vocal resonance come out of Layne's body LOUDER than it did coming out of the speakers, Layne's voice was that powerful.
Several years after Layne’s passing Barrett got a call from an old friend in Massachusetts who had a couple of young children. While on a family drive through the countryside, he was playing the Above album when the last song on the album, “All Alone,” came on. One of the little ones in the back seat asked if there were angels singing on the song, a question that he relayed to Barrett over the phone. “Yeah, he was a certain kind of angel,” Martin said, “a dark one perhaps, but an angel all the same.”
Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine said Layne sang like an angry angel.
Layne's story is more tragic and haunting because you can actually watch and hear him deteriorate over the 12-year span: from the mild use of drugs in 1990 all the way through 1996 when he was deep into a heroin addiction to dropping to 90 pounds by 1998 to 86 pounds when he died in 2002. Layne kept his humor and wit even to the end of his life.
Layne was on this earth for 34 years. In that time he wrote songs that gave a normal person insight into the mind and journey of an addict. The pain and depression he endured to write the most brutally honest lyrics a musician could write concerning his feelings on his own addiction and the emotional and physical strength he had to perform those songs live when all he wanted to do was curl away and lose himself in the drug haze I can’t imagine what it was like for him. He was hounded by the press about his addiction. He was ridiculed for his addiction. The music industry blackballed him for his addiction. The Grammys forgot about him when he died. As far as MTV and Rolling Stone were concerned he’s just another addicted singer. They don’t want to acknowledge his contributions to music.
I could say so much more, but in the end, it all boils down to: Layne Staley deserved better than what he received from the people around him who he thought mattered. He wrote about things with maturity and knowledge well beyond his years. He didn’t deserve to be turned into tabloid cannon fodder by the press.
I honestly don't know what genre this band falls into but it is not something that I listen to often but I am a HUGE fan of AOC. Absolutely love them. What an amazing talent Layne was and obviously Jerry Cantrell is, well just beyond. Love them.
banger of an album!
Thanks guys for this. AiC were such an amazing band! Raw, melodic, grungy, ballads, headbanging. Even Swing. They were brilliant!!
Love Alice in Chains, the whole band is amazing, Jerry, Sean, Mike Starr and Mike Inez and Layne, RIP Layne Staley 😇 and Mike Starr 😇 💝🌹
1992! Hischool days 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Hate to Feel and Angry Chair are great too!
New AIC post Layne Staley is solid too...might I suggest 'A looking in View' and 'All Secrets Known'.
I was laughing because when you were talking about the ways to die - if you kept going you were heading for Final Destination (Take your pick 1,2, 3, or 4). 😄
The most perfect album for me
So missed you guys. So happy to see you back with one of the greatest bands ever! LOVE LAYNE STALELY!!!
I don't know if anyone will see this comment in time but April 5th, 2022 is the 20th anniversary of Layne Staley's death. I hope the reaction community does a tribute
These guys are just plain intoxicateting😮😊
This popped up in my algorithm after my hip replacement surgery 😂😂😂
Takes me back to high school
You really must do "Would?"
Wow am I late to the party... 2024 always a good time with AIC 💌🇨🇦
Layne Staley rules!!
🙏❤🌹 Layne & Mike 🌹❤🙏
How the hell did I miss this one?
No one's getting out alive.
Great reaction!
Cold
it's 7/8 timing on the verses
the next track of that song is also lit
I recommend reacting to any songs of of Dirt. Check out Junkhead and Rooster
Please do Roll the Bones by Rush
Nice idea! Not enough people react to that one.
Fishbone does a pretty good cover of the song. ruclips.net/video/o4gdl7lB1Ik/видео.html Actually I heard their version first and had to go find the Alice In Chains original.
We should never like Omar kayam said our whole life death is ever at your ear whispering I am near😊😢😅
React to junkhead and nutshell unplugged by Alice in chains
Can you guys react to my drum cover of this song? It’s my first drum cover for RUclips! I think you guys would enjoy it!
Your thoughts on the new singer??
he's ok...theres a bunch of others i would have picked tho
Facelift better, sorry
Alice In Chains and Soundgarden being humped up with the Grunge just because they came from Seattle is bullshit. Alice In Chains is pure metal, and Soundgarden is Sabbathy metal. Don't call them grunge please. There is nothing grunge about this song.
Uhhh, you're wrong. Objectively and demonstrably wrong.
Grunge is defined as "distortion-filled, down-tuned and riff-based rock that uses loud electric guitar feedback and heavy, "ponderous" basslines to support its song melodies."
This describes both AIC and Soundgarden exactly. Of course there are inspirations from older bands like Sabbath as it is a subgenre of rock/metal, but it's its own thing separate from that.
Educate yourself, son.
@@lordmortarius538 "Educate yourself" what a arrogant joke to say. That definition could fit in equally well with doom, stoner rock, groove metal, etc. It sounds exactly like what somebody explaining how early Black Sabbath sounds would say.
