SaltpeterTaffy No. Perhaps I'm not explaining enough. There is a formula for hit songs. Certain things that all of them have. If you want a hit, you have to use that formula. I have researched this extensively. If you google hit song formula (or similar) I'm sure you can find the same things I did. That is what makes a song 'catchy.' Music in the right hands can control human emotion. It's actually quite powerful and has ties to Psychology and Sociology. I don't want to make 'hits,' I want to make music that speaks to people on a large scale. That is my personal goal. I will make albums (like the older artists once did) and will not succumb to the BS the industry runs on (simply cranking out catchy, meaningless hits). I have a sketchbook full of ideas. I just need to flesh them out.

The riffs on the new record are some of the best Jerry has written, and that's saying a lot considering he's been doing this for so long. It's so cool how AIC have kept their signature sound for over two decades, yet always manage to add something fresh to it. If you feel like checking out another band that has a truly unique sound listen to Pregnant Whale Pain. Their album is full of sweet riffs too, and the singer's been definitely influenced by Layne, and his vocal range is massive too.

the bridge is delicious, man, you got that right!!!

Jerry is still writing some killer music. Can’t wait to see them again.

William Duvall pulling that weight. Cantrell wasn't gonna lay down his talent for tragedy, it gave him a reason to keep AIC alive.

Goddamn Alice in chains is straight up metal. Jerrys tone has always been phenomenal!!

This is the only band in the entire world that gave me the same kind of goose bumps twice: with Layne and with Will. No BS!

Yeah man, holy shit. I played this to my wife and 11 year old daughter who 'appreciate' my music but don't choose it and they melted at that part of the solo, as did I. Not sure a single part of electric guitar has made me squirm like that ever, and I'm a huge EVH fan.

Say what you want about William. The guy's got a fantastic voice, can totally bring it live, and while obviously no one can be Layne, William was the only one good enough, in the band's eyes/ears, to replace him. That says enough.

Have received a Grammy for DIRT, for style, original sound, harmony. Deval, is not a bandaid for AIC but the same love and compassion AIC's has always had even without Layne. They still smoke, but im glad to have had that chill time with Layne he would be happy with AIC's direction. Peace! GINO .

This is one of the meanest sounds I've heard in decades......still as good as DIRT. I saw 'em live at Lalapalooza in '93. Layne was still alive........ Man, this took me back. Split my head wide open. Loved it.
