Visit www.aliceinchains.com to get a link to a FREE download of the first single off the new album. A Looking in View is over 7 minutes long!

Thanks, I just downloaded it and am listening right now. Sounds real good.

The song is definitely Alice, the vox aren't anything like Layne, which I think is a good thing. There was only one person on the planet who could pull that off and he isn't here any more. It may take some time to grow on you but I think I see the potential.

Re: Alice in Chains (or Alice Without Layne) in the studio

I like the song.

Just not the same without Layne however.

Re: Alice in Chains (or Alice Without Layne) in the studio

It'll be interesting to see the entire direction of the album. The more I listen to the song the more I am becoming accustomed to not hearing Layne, and the less I have an issue with it not being Layne singing.

Great song, good riff from Jerry, and the vocals were good. Based on that song, I think Alice In Chains will be fine without Layne Staley. They will never be "the same", but I think alot of fans will grow to love the new singer as well. It will just be nice to have some of the original grunge back.

I thought the song was decent but I hope thats not the best song on the album. It did sound like vintage AIC though.

I have a feeling this song will be their opener when they tour for the new album.

A Heck of a cool song!

This song shows how much Jerry Cantrell was The Sounds of Alice in Chains as well as a co-voice. I will miss Layne, but I'm glad that they are moving on. Major bands have had new singers and I think that William Duvall will do well. Seeing them in concert reassured that.
