      Hi everybody, just wanted to remind everybody that if you were to go up to Alice in chains in the early 90s and tell them that they needed to represent our government by telling their fans to wear masks and be vaccinated in order to come to one of their shows, they would murder you. Not just a mosh pit beat down until you’re unconscious murder… I’m talking Game of Thrones style murder you. All for being an idiot.

      Ali Sulaiman He’s absolutely my favourite vocalist, but I’d argue that Chris Cornell did come close. And this might sound like a weird comparison, but I get a lot of Layne vibes from Sia. Very powerful chest voices, big range, and smacked full of emotion. Which makes sense because they have quite similar life stories, both being addicts whose partners died tragically young.

In conclusion, people should admit him and the band is simply original as it gets. AIC and Layne are what they are. There is no label needed. Labeling will destroy how amazing it is.

    Wading through mud with sharp painful peaks in between is a perfect way of describing his voice, you hit the nail on the head there. He draws his words out in such a distinct, sludgy way, but when he reaches those higher octaves you can feel the emotions he's pouring into them so much. One the reasons Alice in Chains is one of my favorite bands. The instruments compliment his way of singing in such an awesome way.

    Thank you for doing your reactions and input on Alice in Chains and mostly the incredible human being, the late Layne Staley. He was a man with a huge talent yet he seemed to be a humble down to earth man. His voice was so powerful with every song he did. Even on the Unplugged concert he still kicked some serious butt. I would love to have seen where he would go if he was still with us. I wonder if his voice would still be as strong. I hope it would have been. I read somewhere that his voice was so incredibly POWERFUL that if you were super close to the stage where he was you could hear his voice over top of the amps and speakers. What I mean is that you could here his voice coming from his body. I hope I am making sense to this. The speakers are so incredibly loud at concerts so to hear his voice over the speakers must have been earth shattering and one hell of an experience. I wish I had the blessing to be able to see these super talented men do their thing.

      In terms of vocal technique, Cornell reached 6-8 octaves and he could climb 4 feet in only one song like Beyond The Weel he was one of the greatest singers in terms of vocal technique, outside that his voice is a factor of the junction of 4 dimensions: range, power, volume and depth. His vocals were so amazing that even women who have an ease in reaching the tones, had difficulty checking out the tribute they did to him.
      Cornell was blessed by the universe, his voice is one of the most powerful that exists and this is undeniable in terms of talent as a vocalist.

      Yeah. I didn't even know they kept playing on after his death, until a couple weeks ago when an acquaintance said they were going to see them live. Have you heard Mad Season, though? Bit different, but still extremely pleasing.

      I listen to old and new AiC. They were on hiatus from 96 to 2009. They played a few shows with William but nothing concrete until 2009. Now 3 albums later and they are still as strong MUSICALLY as ever. Definitely a step down vocally because, well, you cant replace Layne....but it's still great music and they still sound like AiC.

      @puffybobs 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes. So many people make AIC all about Layne. TO me Jerry is Alice in Chains. His solo stuff like Bargain basement Howard Hughes is just powerful and angry. Jerry might not be as technical of a singer but as a song writer and guitarist there are few that rival to me.

    great assessment Beth, of one of the all time greats for sure. As a musician, it was nice that you also grasped the inherent sadness in this music and in particular Laynes voice...most people probably miss that. I was shocked when he passed and as someone who's faced a similar path, we all must count each day as a blessing. The lifestyle robbed me of 17 years..Look forward to watching more vids from you.

      Since she tends to stick with live versions, I definitely wouldn't recommend almost anything from Audioslave tours (at least initially, as an introduction/ showcase of his abilities and style) considering how shot his voice was during that period.
