you would love "Rooster". you may have to figure out how to do it without getting blocked however, although I have seen others react to it, but you seem to really appreciate Alice so it would be really cool to see what you think of that song.

"I'm the man in the box, buried in my s*it" and I'm the dog that gets beat, shoved my nose in s*it" is the original words. Or the words in the studio versions.

The original says: "Buried in my shit" but this one is censored

Yep, and shove my nose in shit (not spit). Damn censorship in the 90s.

Layne's insane natural vocal ability, Jerry's incredible songwriting and dark riffs, Mike's powerful and funky basslines, and Sean's criminally underrated drumming. There's so many reasons to love this band and it always makes me happy to see peoples reaction to their music.

Soundgarden is the only comparable band

Also this is one of the main songs that sparked the grunge era lol

Down in a hole (mtv live) next. Even when drugs was taking control of his life , his voice is still there it’s awesome.

Also try this same song, man in the box but (live at the Moore) you’ll see how powerful his voice is live.

Give Rooster a try

Album came out in 1990. Believe or not, according to Wikipedia, this song was the second most played song from 2010 through 2019. Even though Nirvana was the most popular grunge band to hit mainstream radio with their sound, AIC was the most influential band of this era. So many bands tried copying their sound. Their influence is still found in today’s music.

One of my favorite AIC songs. Still gives me goose bumps after 30 years.

Live version from Live at The Moore 🤘🤘🤘. This is pg version in both verses the word is shit, not pit or spit. Love Hate Love or Bleed The Freak from Live at The Moore. Layne is even better live than in studio believe it or not. Jerry and his awesome vocals and guitar riffs. Mike on bass and Sean on drums. What a phenomenal band ✌❤🤘

Layne is everything!!!! "Them Bones" "Love Hate Love" Live ta the Moore & "Frogs" Mtv Unplugged! This song is about censorship I believe.

Frogs is an awesome song it would be great to hear it on the Radio☮️

Some of my favorites: Bleed the Freak (live at the Moore), Rain When I Die, Sunshine, Down in A Hole (MTV Unplugged for some good Layne and Jerry harmonizing), Love Hate Love (live at the Moore) is always a great one too to get an idea of Layne's raw vocal talent.

What folks fail to mention far too often is that Layne had a funk band before AIC. That's where that groovy, dirty vibe probably comes from!

You'll have to do Rooster next! :)

I fuckin love Alice in Chains man Layne and jerry are just magical with the song writing and vocal and the harmonies man phenomenal

Love Hate Love Live at the Moore should be your next reaction!

Awesome reaction. Please try to do Junkhead/ Down in a hole (MTV unplugged) / Love hate love( live at the moore) / Rain when I die/ Them bones. All bangers!

Next you have to check out the live version of Love Hate Love.

gotta do rooster by these guys next

Great reaction, there’s so many good songs from this band. “Down in a hole” “Heaven Beside You” and “Bleed the freak” are my three favorite by them

Smashed it

AIC Love, Hate, Love live at the Moore next! 🖤🤘

Just dropping in here, "Love, Hate, Love", Live at the Moore, it's Layne's greatest vocal performance, imo. My favourite live performance, period.

Live Version At The Moore Theater 1990 Sounds Better Than Studio

RIP Layne and Mike (the Bassist). There will never be replaceable. Anything they do you should see if they are available at the Moore. Best live videos with no cutting out cuss words. Lets you see them in their true light. God I miss this band :(

Down in a hole please. If possible do both the album version (with lyrics) and unplugged version, they’re both good in their own ways

I have just recently really listening too I AM FREAKING HOOKED !!!

Yo you absolutely have to watch the live version of this at the Moore theatre, and love hate love, Nothing comparable

Hey bud it’s awesome that you are doing AIC! Just a bit of advice even if you don’t react to it and listen to them on your personal time... when you listen to AIC you gotta listen to them Live bro! They are one of the few bands that actually sound better live then studio versions! “ Live at the Moore Theater “ is a good starting point… And then obviously their legendary “ MTV Unplugged” performance I promise you you won’t be disappointed bro

Yup !!! Layne voice is in my head too 😂 I even dreamed bout him 😂 RIP LAYNE STALEY

This song's origins start with a lunch the band had with some A&R woman who was a vegan (no animal byproducts of ANY kind), who proceeded to tell them how animals were penned up in small crates and killed for steak, etc. So, Layne wrote Man in the Box from the perspective of a penned up calf. It was loosely based around Layne's idea of media censorship. Sean Kinney (the drummer) said it was about veal. LOL. Layne met Jerry Cantrell ONE TIME, found out he had no family in the area, he had little money left and Layne (drunkenly) offered Jerry a place to live, money, food, clothes, guitars and gear he needed, Layne set Jerry up with a life that could NOT fail unless Jerry let it happen. He set him up with a band when he gave Jerry the number to Sean Kinney's girlfriend and found out that the girlfriend was Mike Starr's sister. He encouraged Jerry to sing more because after all they were Jerry's lyrics, Jerry should sing them. I'm sure Jerry would have made it on his own without Layne, but it would have been the long scenic route to get there. Jerry wrote Rooster about his father's experiences in Vietnam and when Jerry saw his dad in the audience at one of their shows, Jerry asked Layne (and the guys) to play Rooster and they did. It was the first time Jerry's dad heard Jerry's music and knew that his son understood him through that song. It brought Jerry and his dad closer together. And Layne had a vital part in that reunion. (Meanwhile Layne's own biological father was an opportunist who showed back up in Layne's life AFTER Layne got famous and had money and did drugs with Layne.) Phil Staley was NOT the father Layne expected when he came back into his life. Layne had tried rehab 13 times, but he could never completely give it up. He tried quitting cold turkey on two of the last attempts at rehab, but that didn't work either. Mad Season is made up of Mike McCready of Pearl Jam, Barrett Martin of Screaming Trees and John Baker Saunders and they all went through rehab. They all got together and dragged Layne out of his condo, got him excited about doing ABOVE album, thinking if he was creative he wouldn't want the drugs, and for the length of time it took to do that, Layne was excited about the project, but it didn't curb his drug habit. Layne wrote the lyrics to the songs he sang on the ABOVE album and he drew the cover art for the album. Layne was an amazing singer. Very few singers sound better live than they do in a studio version. Layne was one of the few. From what I’ve read and researched, heroin is the worst drug to be addicted to. You don’t want to do anything other than be there and nodding out. The fact that he agreed to do the KISS shows and performed them like he did shows the strength he had. From what I read, when you have the level of addiction Layne had, it is incredibly difficult to function at the intensity of performing a stage show in front of an audience as well as he did. He could have stayed home and stayed high, but Jerry wanted to do the shows. Somewhere, somehow Layne found the strength to do those shows despite what his addiction wanted him to do even though he survived an overdose after the last KISS show in Kansas City, Missouri, became a recluse, and the addiction got him in the end. Mike Starr was the last one to see him on April 4, 2002, for all anyone knows and what I took from that was that while Layne was telling Mike that he (Layne) was sick, he still tried to get Mike to give up his own prescription drug habit. After that, no one noticed he had died because he never answered the phone nor opened the door. It took inactivity over the span of two weeks for his ACCOUNTANT to notice something was wrong and called Susan Silver who called Layne's mother to alert her to the situation who then called 911. He died on April 5, 2002, but his body wasn't discovered until April 19, 2002. And to pour salt in the wound, MTV (and the music industry) has more or less blackballed Layne (and yet, they laud over Kurt Cobain every April 5th, because Kurt was the "face of grunge", meanwhile Layne gets a "by the way"). The Grammys went so far as to invite Jerry, Mike and Sean to the Grammy show in 2003 and then refused to put Layne's picture up in the memorial of the musicians who died in 2002. (Or they "forgot" to) which pissed Jerry, Mike and Sean off and they walked out on the show. At the age of 34 (when he died), he looked more like an 80-year-old man. He knew he screwed up, between the drugs and his own depression and then his former fiancee dying, Layne just couldn't find a way to dig himself out of his own mess and at the end with his teeth problems and organs failing on him, he gave up trying. He lost sight of who his true friends were and who was using him. He was never going to give up the drugs. Instead, he tried to attain the same high he felt the first time he did drugs and could never achieve it. 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 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. 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. Layne was so much more than his drug addiction. He was able to come up with lyrics and harmonies off the top of his head. He stacked his own vocals. He knew enough to know that Jerry Cantrell was playing with the wrong people and gave him contact info for Sean Kinney and Mike Starr. He wrote the lyrics for the songs he sang on Mad Season's Above album and drew the cover art for that album. Layne was a genius in his own right. He still was able to figure things out in a snap off the top of his head. Layne just had his demons. Layne's whole situation from his drug addiction, to how he died, to how he was found only weighing 86 pounds and the drug paraphernalia, etc is tragic and haunts me when I think about it (and I didn't even know the guy personally). "Whatever dramas are going on in my life, I always find that place inside my head where I see myself as the cleanest, tallest, strongest, wisest person that I can be." -- Layne Staley "My bad habits aren't my title. My strengths and my talent are my title." -- Layne Staley "When I tried drugs they were fucking great, and they worked for me for years, and now they're turning against me- and now I'm walking through hell and this sucks. I wrote about drugs, and I didn't think I was being unsafe or careless by writing about them. I didn't want my fans to think heroin was cool. But then I've had fans come up to me and give me the thumbs up, telling me they're high. That's exactly what I didn't want to happen." -- Layne Staley "I'm not into religion, but I have a good grasp on my spirituality. I just believe that I'm not the greatest power on this earth. I didn’t create myself, because I would have done a hell of a better job." -- Layne Staley

1990. 1st “grunge band” from Seattle to get signed

All the songs from Dirt and all the tracks from Facelift. "Them Bones", "We Die Young"; "Rain When I Die"; "Rooster", and all of them.

listen to Them Bones by Alice in Chains next

Great reaction!

What Layne (the singer) meant by "buried in my pit" is "buried in my shit" that's the censored version.

Alice in chains is one of Slashes favorites. He said was a big influence!

Yessss this is my fav aic song💜 love hate love is fire also

Jerry Cantrell and slash would know each other for sure.. legends

Rooster bangs too by them

Alice in Chains is definitely one of the best bands to come from the Grunge Era. Can't wait till you listen to Down in A Hole or Rooster

If you haven't already checked out "Rooster" by Alice in Chains then please do!

I watched a video about Layne that compared his highest notes to Mariah Carey’s and other singers. This man could hit impossible octaves that other great vocalists could only hit with a whistle tone. He would reach those notes without loosing the power in his vocals. Dude was a legend fr there will never be another one like him. Mans could add distortion to his voice without the need for effects 🐐

I swear watching this reaction and you just loving the song made my morning so much better 😄. Please react to more Aic. Definetly reccomend Them bones, rooster, junkhead, down in a hole and later on you should check out their third self titled album and react to Frogs. The song and the whole album is so different. Very moody and sludgy and heavily influenced by Laynes down ward spiral into heavy drugs. Reccomend every song, but especially Frogs, which is in my opinion their darkest song ever made.

Okay, for what I'm reading... A Love, Hate, Love reaction is coming... PREPARE YOUR ASSES! YOU TOO, KURTIS!! Haha Don't forget to react to the Live at the Moore version too!

Take a dive into 90s grunge. Scene. Screaming trees , mudhoney, mad season featuring different members of other bands including layne. I mother love bone. Ugh I miss the 90s

Btw, he originally says "buried in my shit" not 'pit' but they made them 'clean it up' for radio version he says it again when he says "shove my nose in shit" no 'spit' again they had to clean it up....listen to the not clean version.

Nutshell (MTV Unplugged) is one of their best performances, recommended it

Please fall down this rabbit hole you won't regret it. Alice In Chains did so many good songs up until Layne Staley died unfortunately and that saddens me cause there are so many of the greats esp from the 90's that are gone.

Little does he know this is the clean version 😂

React to We die young, one of the most heavy Alice In Chains songs

Love this song and your reaction was pretty much exactly what mine looked like too hearing that chorus for the first time 🤘 It might be a a bit of a controversial one given the lyrical content and how it unfortunately all ended with Layne but their song 'Junkhead' is one of my favorites and definitely worth a listen.

He says Sh*t, also says it in the second verse with the dog…they had to sensor it (ironically) for MTV.

Watch them sing Nutshell on MTV UNPLUGGED...it's haunting

you must check out love hate love live at the Moore

Nice! Subbed. Listen to Down in a Hole, and Rooster by Alice in Chains. Amazing jams!

This song Has a kinda Vibe of Guns n Roses...you right:)

1990 in my book

The solo has a Slash sound to it, but more bluesier. js Cantrell was a Monster

Alice in Chains - them Bones is one you need to react to as well

react to Alice in Chains - Man in the Box (live).

Nutshell live MTV Unplugged. I'd heard of the group, even heard some songs, was too young to "hear" though🙄 last year I saw a reaction by Alex Hefner(?) and rewatched on my own...Cried my ass off, knowing the singer died very shortly after that performance too? SUCH a beautiful voice, my God🥺😢 Please react?

Dude there's so many deep cut grunge Era songs that you'd like if you like this song. Nirvana live was insane, AIC , Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, but you gotta get past all the hits, there's much better material that I feel really gets overlooked. Great reaction dude!!

In that verse is "buried in my shit" but they censored it :(

Greatest male vocalist to grace this planet!! 1990. Layne is a Rock God!! This song is about Media Censorship. Love Hate Love Live @ The Moore

Try Sepultura - Dead Embryonic Cells. It brings some of the best reactions I see around.

Alice In Chains - Rooster Them Bones

Have to do “Down In A Hole” next 💚

You should react to "Love Hate Love" live at The Moore next, if you want to see what Layne was capable of vocally =)

No shit guns n roses is my favorite band of all time appetite for destruction is the reason I picked up a guitar when I was young and learned that whole album start to finish by myself

I’m starting a movement, please react to the uncut versions please

I wanna be part of the b team!!

Rip Mike Starr.

React to their song Them Bones next! Also Love Hate Love live at the Moore & their song Junkhead.

ROOSTER, THEM BONES, DAMN THAT RIVER, BLEED THE FREAK, WE DIE YOUNG, SEA OF SORROW, DOWN IN A HOLE, ANGRY CHAIR… I mean the list is endless for AIC. My suggestion is listen to the studio versions before you go live versions, that way you can appreciate the live videos more dude PIT = SHIT (it’s supposed to be shit) but for some reason it’s censored in the video

You should listen to Pantera Cemetery Gates Dimebag Darrell is one of the best heavy metal guitars ever!!

I just found your channel so forgive me if you've reacted... but if Slash is your favorite, have you listened/ reacted to Slash ft Myles Kennedy? Awesome band. Myles is an amazing singer. Try Anastasia it Driving Rain. Everything they put out is awesome.

What you herd As a pit and spit was not the real words the real word was SHIT now put that in the song if you want to really hear this song some place in Seattle Moore theater listen to that if your RAP can keep up Lol

They don’t get much better then this band period... Layne’s voice is unmatched, and so great, and such a shame that he’s gone!!! I’m so sick of hearing about Robert Plant had the best vocals, no way Layne was better....

The guitarist Jerry Cantrell is as good if not better than Slash, facts!

This AIC video is edited. It changes lyrics and, therefore, kinda blows.

Guns N' Roses sucks. Alice in Chains was absolutely amazing and Layne is THE best vocalist ever. RIP....
