Jerry Cantrell can definitely cut it up on guitar. One of the best to come out of the 90's. He also shares vocal duties. Check out "Down in a hole" it's a beautiful song.
AIC Ithe most badass band that I have ever listened to xtremely powerful music the whole band is a cyclone of émotions brought together and put to hard rocking music. Hands down AIC IS FUKIN BADASS !!!!! Every single song they pushed out!!!
Watching you groove is like watching me groove... From that open eyed smile when guitar wails to those dirty undulating bass moves... Glad I'm not the only one who feels music through their whole body😊✌️❤️
@@Zombied77 i saw the beginning of metal. everyone credits black sabbath. ozzy sang about the devil. ALICE COOPER was the devil. also first one to kill a chicken on stage, hang himself and behead himself. the first villain.i found the 90's to be boring and depresing with no show except for a very few bands like RAMMSTEIN
Another 90's band to lend your ears to is Pearl Jam -- "Black," "Daughter," "Better Man," among other songs. But I think you would have more fun somewhere in the funky space between John Lee Hooker and Lynyrd Skynyrd that you might find listening to 70's era ZZ Top -- "Just Got Paid," "La Grange," "Nationwide," "Cheap Sunglasses," "Tush," ...
Someone here suggested Candlebox (of the same era of Alice In Chains), and I second that motion. They have many hits, just off of ONE CD alone, "Far Behind", and "Change" is my two favorites.
Honey you aint heard nothing yet from Alice in Chains. Layne Staley has an amazing voice. His lyrics are very dark and dirgeful. He writes songs about his own life which is crazy to say the least. Love Hate Love Would Down in a Hole Rooster Again Must plays!!!! You will be a fan
Rooster should probably be the next one seems she's probably heard it before just doesn't remember unless she has never ventured out of her own music genre's I would not be mad if she picked your song though
@@ZaxTechMedia Rooster was my first thought, but Nutshell I feel is mellower. I dunno if it's got more emotion, they're both pretty powerful songs. #DoBoth
You seemed to really dig AIC's breakout hit. This was early 90's and just beginning the Grunge Seattle scene. You should check out more. Their harmonies on other songs are just sick. You should check out: Would, The Rooster, No Excuses, Angry Chair, I Stay Away, and more. Sadly, the lead singer passed away some time back. The band has carried on with a new singer with a similar vibe. But there is only one Layne Staley. But you should definitely check out more AIC. I think as a musician you'd appreciate the composition and production work. As their earlier stuff is really raw and full of passion. Great reaction 😉👍🏻
I once heard someone describe Jerry Cantrell's tone on the verse sections of this track as an idling diesel engine, and the choruses as mashing the throttle on the engine. That's pretty accurate.
You respect Upchurch. Upchurch covered two Alice in Chains songs, Nutshell and Rooster. Listen to those first. These covers will make you more of an Upchurch fan.
I remember hearing this song for the first time about 10 years ago playing the game Rock Band on Xbox 360 and I still play it a few times a year and there's nothing so satisfying as getting all the way through that thrash without an error and hearing it perfectly. An all time great Rock Band song. Lot's of videos of that. Oh and I loved your reaction to it. Oh and even 62 year olds love this song.
It's a song about censorship which, showing that irony is a thing, got censored. "Shove my nose in SPIT." Yeah. That's not the line. This album came out when I was in high school and it absolutely blew me away. Layne Staley had a wonderful voice and was seriously tortured. The guitar player is Jerry Cantrell and he and Layne were amazing together. Love, Hate, Love and Nutshell will both rock your world. Go for the live versions of both. You won't regret it.
"Let's go Alice in Chains! let's go!!" LOL. You're funny & very observant. The song was written by their singer, Layne Staley, who often wrote about his crippling addiction to heroin, which eventually took his life in 2002. - Next check out the song Rooster & Would, and the "MTV Unplugged" concert they did in 1996. THe harmonies will blow you away. ;)
Layne said this song was about censorship, and that he was high when he wrote it. Jerry Cantrell actually wrote most of their songs, lyrics and music, It wasn't all Layne writing about drug addiction like a lot of people assume.
So glad you rock with Alice in Chains. This is grunge you are listening to now. It is a darker rock genre...made darker by the lead singer Layne Staley and the lyrics. Much of it about drugs. Layne unfortunately passed away. Their track "Would" is excellent...original video version.
The first time I heard this song I was on a road trip with my dad, going trout fishing in Northwest South Carolina. He tried to change the channel, I told him to keep his filthy fingers off my radio knobs. I was 25.
This was produced by Brian Carlstrom, (RIP) my neighbor Mick's best friend in high school. He said "these young guys came in .......high as fark, and played like a mthrfkr until I told 'em to quit." - Like "Freaks on a Leash" if you will. All true.
The censored radio-play version, sadly... "Buried in my pit" and "Shove my nose in spit" lol... last word to both lines was originally "shit", song loses a bit of its lyrical power with the lame substitutions I think
To protect our delicate sensibilites I guess... it's downright comical, really. I mean, these days I think it would be hard to find an eight-year-old that would be shocked to hear the word "shit".
@@theunknownpikachu2444 Totally... the way he sings "I'm the dog who gets beat...shove my nose in SHIT" is so amazingly evocative... "...shove my nose in SPIT", well, it doesn't even make any sense really.
Yeah ,Rooster is about the guitarist’s father who when serving in Vietnam got the nickname Rooster because of his red hair. Yeah very heavy song about his dad and the war. Also, you want a kick in the pants? Them bones. Peace, Phil
Same vibe and genre: Soundgarden - Outshined, Black Hole Sun Collective Soul - Shine, Where the river flows Pearl Jam - Jeremy, Black Nickelback - How you remind me, Rockstar Jet - Are you gonna be my girl, Cold Hard Bitch
Not sure if you knew about these fellows prior to reacting to them but this is like one of my favorite bands of all time. You can't help but feel this music. Thank you 🤘😎🤘
The cover band I play in has been playing this tune for a few years and every time we play it the crowd still loves to hear this song. They never get tired of this tune even though the band gets tired of playing it lol
new subscriber here. just discovered you over the christmas break. love your excitement over the great rock bands. can't wait to see you discover all the new music.
You need to listen to MTV Unplugged version of nutshell and or Got Me Wrong from that same concert. Layne Staley (lead singer) passed away not too long after that concert from a suspected drug overdose.. amazing talent like so many times in the past taken way too soon
$C, if you wanna hear sumthin' funky and cool as a pineapple popsicle, react to "Waitin' for the Bus" (studio version) by ZZ Top. There's a tasty little treat that comes with it...
Another great reaction to a great rock song. Rock has always morphed and changed and yet it is still rock. Enjoying all your reactions even though I don't always comment on them.
Definitely funky. I’m not entirely sure of the details but I remember reading that AIC was originally a funk band. Though that might have just been Layne and Jerry idk
That, completely seriously, got an out loud guffaw from me. I love AiC, they're one of my top 3 all-time bands, but I don't think ANYONE has EVER described their music as "uplifting" before. That is not a description I have ever seen attributed to them. If the intention is that it can be affirming to people who need affirmation, I agree. If you mean relatable, I can easily see it. But uplifting in its usual sense of making people feel better about the world? I'm blind on that one. Please don't mistake me: if YOU find it uplifting, great. I hope that continues. Just... that would be an outlying opinion of their music.
I do find it uplifting. I own a courier service and have driven over 3,000,000 miles. When I sing songs that some consider depressing it gets those feelings out of me. Afterwards I feel great. Uplifted.
I'm with u on that. Depends on whats going on in my life i'll listen to Alice in Chains, Drain STH, A Pale Horse Named Death, Type O Negative, My Dying Bride, Theatre of Tragedy which all these bands can have a depressing sound but uplifting if u understand them and are on the right track in life. Or just focused on music and not so deep into the lyrics. Saved me from suicide or going crazy in a way. Down in a Hole is a good pick.
I remember when I first heard this in the early 90s it didn’t really sound like anything else I’d heard at that point it had that grunge feel but it was a little heavier which I liked being a metal fan and had a little funk and soul to it. I fell in love and never looked back
Do "Rooster" by Alice in Chains. Also "Junkhead" but see a live preformances. Also "Fear the Voices". Also for their acoustic/unplugged stuff "Got me Wrong" and "brother"
My favorite Grunge/post-grunge bands besides Alice: Nirvana Soundgarden Pearl Jam Mad Season Temple of the Dog Audioslave Silverchair Foo Fighters Live Screaming Trees Queens of the Stone Age
I love Alice in Chains!! Good choice!! My favorites from them are Would? & It Ain't Like That. And please recommend me a song to listen. But my favorite song from all time is The Elder God Shrine by Karl Sanders. Truly amazing and nobody made a reaction video with Sander's work.
hi all Alice fans ....i have a little story here about Layne (singer) ..its a little sad... ok....gonna give you a personal account of these lyrics " come and save me " ....hmmm? about 30 yrs ago i was on a ferry from (or to - cant remember now ) greece to amsterdam i think ? And it was a cold and lonely time above deck in a locked up snak bar ..deserted , and late at night... i think me and the girl went for a stretch of legs ...or seeking some drink or food...but it was lonely and darkish in the snak bar....all locked up -with just some messy food left on the little round tables .....when who do i see...two men on the other side of me ....they appeared startled by us ...and we of them. I am from australia ...but i had recently become a little aware of Alice in chains ...actually had got some of thier stuff ....but was not a huge fan ....but fuck me ..it was Layne and the drummer ! I recognised him ...but i was shy -and not very confident back then ....but i will tell you what made a big impression on me...and i hope it does not speak ill of the dead...but he was going through the leftovers looking for food obviously ...i remember whispering to her , should we offer some food ....but the next thing they had gone ...i could tell we had a brief moment where we could have really connected ..but my shyness and hesitancy cost me a great experience....i am sorry i didnt help him...i couldnt help thinking ..here was a rock star ...and he was going thru leftovers ! Though ...i dont know if the band were touring amsterdam or not...but it was a shock...i might even contact the drummer and see if he remembers this ....Layne certainly needed help then,,,,and i didnt come thru ...i feel guilty about that ...strange story ..but true . Thats my little story,.
MTV’s Unplugged Alice in Chains is simply fantastic and also very heartbreaking to watch song by song best unplugged (when you have the time you should check it out)
So when I posted this comment, there was a number 2 in the views and the likes/dislikes all had 2's in them...I wonder what this means? Anyways, Good reaction to this chart topping hit, but I have heard it said and I agree completely that Alice in Chains with Layne Staley as lead vocal, never put out a bad song. So it doesn't matter which song you get to react from them next, it is all quality!
Yes yes yes! I was in my 20's in the 80's MTV era, and that, for me, was great..but wow, when the 90's hit with this stuff, I couldn't get enough, it was like just in time, a needed change. Candlebox, was awesome.
@@chapmaned24 I liked it back when it came out but as time has gone by and I lost a lot of friends to "the life",it has so much more meaning to me. I've been learning to play it but haven't memorized it yet.
@@garylindsey5174 Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that. But I know what you mean. I'm over in Bremerton, just across the water from Seattle, and during that time, it was terrible here...still is, but not as bad as it was. All those grunge bands had a serious story to tell in song, but the life...ya. I get it.
Lmao this girl is about it. Can't imagine what her friends think when weezy is bumping and rolls straight into lane Staley crushing souls with man in a box....
The entire album 'Dirt' is an absolute classic from 1992....and It's a bit after the genre I grew up on but their is not a single bad track on it, every song is addictive and I find myself playing it in it's entirety every time......."Rooster" I think is about the lead singers father....Excellent, very deep war song. Vocals and guitar are stellar...everything is..Please do some more.
go down the alice in chain rabbit hole please then try out some tool. the songs and videos tool put out in the mid to late 90s was some crazy interesting stuff.
Great song choice, reaction and input! I love your channel. Just one thing, in case you are not aware, the audio and video is out of sync on many of your videos. Some start out fine until you pause the video, then they get out of sync. Then each time you pause afterwards, they get further out of sync. Just trying to help! Peace!!☮
The live version of Love Hate Love in Seattle 1990. Hands down the most powerful and raw performance you'll ever see from this band.
Random Nobody most definitely
Jerry Cantrell can definitely cut it up on guitar. One of the best to come out of the 90's. He also shares vocal duties. Check out "Down in a hole" it's a beautiful song.
Layne Staley is considered to be one of the most influential rock voices of all time.
Dirt is best album ever. Facelift is top 20 ever. WE need both albums song by song.
AIC Ithe most badass band that I have ever listened to xtremely powerful music the whole band is a cyclone of émotions brought together and put to hard rocking music. Hands down AIC IS FUKIN BADASS !!!!! Every single song they pushed out!!!
Rooster is a must listen, it's a really deep song
I was just up in the comments and told somebody to choose rooster over nutshell my father was in Desert Storm and understands rooster better than most
My dad was in both Vietnam and Desert Storm
Preferably the live mtv unplugged version
@@seancollum285 My dad too!
Nutshell and down in a hole over rooster.
'Would?' is AIC's masterpiece.
There is not one bad song in the Alice in Chains discography 1990 to 2019
Watching you groove is like watching me groove... From that open eyed smile when guitar wails to those dirty undulating bass moves...
Glad I'm not the only one who feels music through their whole body😊✌️❤️
this was the best band of the 90's
Arguably. The 90's really were an embarrassment of riches.
Facts
ministry, pantera, faith no more, 90s were too much good, soooo much good.

@cyanide fan
Well, obviously, if Metallica were to claim the 90's, but I think their claim is to the 80's, if they want to claim a decade.
He has one of the best voices in rock & roll ;)
WE Need every Alice In Chains song. In order.
THIS.
My 2 favorite bands ever are Chains and Zeppelin. Only 2 bands that I love 95% of songs
Heartfelt respect when you said 95% of the songs you can actually enjoy.
Heard that! I add the Beatles!
@@shawnk7832 i love the Beatles but not 95% of their songs.
@@vincents9620 I feel like Soundgarden was more zepp-like
We need the Song Dirt. In fact we need the entire album. My favorite album ever and I been rocking out 50 years.
Gets better the older i get.
She's feeling it.
Yes, we are doing more AIC. "Them Bones" and "Rooster".
Other Alice In Chains Songs "Down in a Hole" "Rooster" Rotten Apple" "Nutshell (Unplugged Version)" and "I Stay Away"
Your charismatic and exuberant energy is off the charts. Just discovered your channel today. You rock!
I love you sm, love these reactions. So many of these are classics and I'm so happy you dig this!!

Again
Must plays!!!! You will be a fan
Steve You lost me on the second post bro
Jerry Cantrell actually writes most of the songs.
Might be the best reaction I ever seen. I’m glad you loved Alice.
I rang your Bell
Alice in Chains - Nutshell please?
Like if y'all agree
Rooster should probably be the next one seems she's probably heard it before just doesn't remember unless she has never ventured out of her own music genre's I would not be mad if she picked your song though
@@ZaxTechMedia Rooster was my first thought, but Nutshell I feel is mellower. I dunno if it's got more emotion, they're both pretty powerful songs.
#DoBoth
And Rooster
You reminded of that song from Heart: "Ring them bells ft Layne Staley"
Amazing song with three amazing singers
Love Hate Love (Live from the Moore)
This song was such a game changer when it first came out... They kicked the door in, and let the old guard know they had to evolve or die.
Can you do Love Hate Love live at The Moore.
Escalera al Cielo SECONDED, fantastic performance
This is crucial lady. You must do this one
Escalera al Cielo yes
Love hate love love at the Moore theater...one of the best live performances OF ALL TIME (it’s the best IMO)

Whow, you have gone to a whole other level with Alice in Chains. Please review "Would".
You rock Scribe!
I once heard someone describe Jerry Cantrell's tone on the verse sections of this track as an idling diesel engine, and the choruses as mashing the throttle on the engine. That's pretty accurate.
Ahh..not the censored version. Live at the moore version is unreal
My favorite band of all. The way you described it, is the way I did when I first heard this in 91'
Yeah, this was a song that introduced Alice In Chains to the main stream. Myself included. It was just the surface...
Since u turned onto Alice In Chains now u got to hear a few more and react... Bleed the Freak, Would, junkhead, rooster, and soooo many more..
You should check out the band Pearl Jam as well, "Even Flow" "Alive" "Do The Evolution"
Such a great reaction to this song. Thank you!
You respect Upchurch. Upchurch covered two Alice in Chains songs, Nutshell and Rooster. Listen to those first. These covers will make you more of an Upchurch fan.
Sooo true
Hey Creeker,
Upchurch also did "Them Bones" and "Down In A Hole"
Would love to hear him cover Man In the Box. Been an Upchurch fan for years too
It does have a dark vibe. An incredible band!!! I'm happy that you like Alice In Chains.

5:35 = The magic of Jerry Cantrell.
an even better one is called "would?", great choice though
Check out Alice in Chains- No Excuses, Would or Rooster
GOOD CHOICES
Down In A Hole
The first time I heard this song I was on a road trip with my dad, going trout fishing in Northwest South Carolina. He tried to change the channel, I told him to keep his filthy fingers off my radio knobs. I was 25.
you're in a direct path towards metal, pretty soon you'll be rocking to Arch Enemy, great reactions :)
you should check out rain when i die. it’s my favorite aic song ever, even got it tattooed on me
sati ellis a personal fave
FINALLY!!!!!!!!!
Definately their best song
And no reaction yet!
Anywhere!!!!
Check out Love Hate Love live! His singing is on another level you gotta see it.
Also her perception of music and tone vs the fans of the genres perception is so close yet so different. I wish she would react my whole playlist.
This was produced by Brian Carlstrom, (RIP) my neighbor Mick's best friend in high school. He said "these young guys came in .......high as fark, and played like a mthrfkr until I told 'em to quit." - Like "Freaks on a Leash" if you will. All true.

What's funny is both Layne and Jerry said this song was largely about censorship.
I agree 100 % second time in the song where he said «Shit» give’s me goosebumps
No kidding. In today's fucked up world, what are they protecting us from?
To protect our delicate sensibilites I guess... it's downright comical, really. I mean, these days I think it would be hard to find an eight-year-old that would be shocked to hear the word "shit".

Same vibe and genre:
Soundgarden - Outshined, Black Hole Sun
Collective Soul - Shine, Where the river flows
Pearl Jam - Jeremy, Black
Nickelback - How you remind me, Rockstar
Jet - Are you gonna be my girl, Cold Hard Bitch

You need to listen to MTV Unplugged version of nutshell and or Got Me Wrong from that same concert. Layne Staley (lead singer) passed away not too long after that concert from a suspected drug overdose.. amazing talent like so many times in the past taken way too soon
Mike passed away shortly after he did celebrity rehab. He just could not handle Layne's passing
He died 6 years after the concert that is long time
@@joosuahuopaniemi471 k.....thanks

Another great reaction to a great rock song. Rock has always morphed and changed and yet it is still rock. Enjoying all your reactions even though I don't always comment on them.
It was termed "alt-rock" at the time. It's all rock and roll to me!
Lane was trained by the same guy who trained Geoff Tate of Queensryche, and AIC was influenced heavily by Metallica
Definitely funky. I’m not entirely sure of the details but I remember reading that AIC was originally a funk band. Though that might have just been Layne and Jerry idk
I find Alice In Chains very uplifting. Can you do the Song Down In A Hole.
That, completely seriously, got an out loud guffaw from me. I love AiC, they're one of my top 3 all-time bands, but I don't think ANYONE has EVER described their music as "uplifting" before.

Or just focused on music and not so deep into the lyrics. Saved me from suicide or going crazy in a way. Down in a Hole is a good pick.
Yes Radiohead is supposed to be way too depressing for people but if you lose someone close to you sometimes so-called sad music can be cathartic.
I remember when I first heard this in the early 90s it didn’t really sound like anything else I’d heard at that point it had that grunge feel but it was a little heavier which I liked being a metal fan and had a little funk and soul to it. I fell in love and never looked back
Scribe, yup, you noticed the dark sound of Alice In Chains. That was pretty much their trademark. Nothing like them, before or since.
Love your reactions girl 😍. And this Alice in Chain's song is my favorite. Plus? To me? I believe this song is about him? Drug's.
Upchurch did some Alice in chains covers you gotta check them out pretty impressive
Hes saying "Feed my eyes.." then"...you sew the SHUT!"
actually, some songs in facelift album are sounds funky like "put you down" and " i know somethin' (bout you)"
Do "Rooster" by Alice in Chains. Also "Junkhead" but see a live preformances. Also "Fear the Voices". Also for their acoustic/unplugged stuff "Got me Wrong" and "brother"
You should cover this song, I bet you'd kill it. Absolutely beautiful btw.

So when I posted this comment, there was a number 2 in the views and the likes/dislikes all had 2's in them...I wonder what this means? Anyways, Good reaction to this chart topping hit, but I have heard it said and I agree completely that Alice in Chains with Layne Staley as lead vocal, never put out a bad song. So it doesn't matter which song you get to react from them next, it is all quality!
AIC Rules baby!!! ❤🤘🏽
Apparently man in the box is about how the media feeds us useless information that we let shape our reality. Anyway totally love your reactions!! 💕
Check out Candlebox "Far Behind" & some Stone Temple Pilots
Yes yes yes! I was in my 20's in the 80's MTV era, and that, for me, was great..but wow, when the 90's hit with this stuff, I couldn't get enough, it was like just in time, a needed change. Candlebox, was awesome.
@@chapmaned24 I liked it back when it came out but as time has gone by and I lost a lot of friends to "the life",it has so much more meaning to me. I've been learning to play it but haven't memorized it yet.
@@garylindsey5174 Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that. But I know what you mean. I'm over in Bremerton, just across the water from Seattle, and during that time, it was terrible here...still is, but not as bad as it was. All those grunge bands had a serious story to tell in song, but the life...ya. I get it.
Lmao this girl is about it. Can't imagine what her friends think when weezy is bumping and rolls straight into lane Staley crushing souls with man in a box....
Bullet with butterfly wings....by Smashing pumpkins if ur trying to broaden your horizons...on the whole grunge metal era
The entire album 'Dirt' is an absolute classic from 1992....and It's a bit after the genre I grew up on but their is not a single bad track on it, every song is addictive and I find myself playing it in it's entirety every time......."Rooster" I think is about the lead singers father....Excellent, very deep war song. Vocals and guitar are stellar...everything is..Please do some more.
Gotta go with 'We Die Young' for a next dip into the AIC pool!
Awesome reaction! New subscriber!
You tube rappers make the the best new headbangers!
I DARE YOU TO DO THE SONG CALLED "WALK" By THE BAND PANTARA
Yes, correct!
If Sabbath began in the late '80s. Heavy, dark and melodic.
Hey cash. Next try WOULD, ROOSTER, THEM BONES, ANGRY CHAIR, DOWN IN A HOLE, and anything from the EP "JAR OF FLIES" All bangers! 🔥🔥🔥
go down the alice in chain rabbit hole please then try out some tool. the songs and videos tool put out in the mid to late 90s was some crazy interesting stuff.
Great song choice, reaction and input! I love your channel. Just one thing, in case you are not aware, the audio and video is out of sync on many of your videos. Some start out fine until you pause the video, then they get out of sync. Then each time you pause afterwards, they get further out of sync. Just trying to help! Peace!!☮
Boy, you get into it
Your rock/metal/stank face on this one was classic!
