We know there is more to life than the music of the Bunnymen. Talk about those other bands here.

New Alice in Chains track, "A Looking in View"

Postby Frank The Bunny » Sun Jul 05, 2009 8:21 pm

Any other AIC fans in Bunnydom? I've got mixed feelings about this one. I think it's really good. I think it sounds like Alice in Chains... I just don't know if it's right. It's sort of like doing the Doors without Morrison or INXS without Hutchence. That doesn't mean I won't go see AIC or buy the new album.

I've never been into them but I've been waiting for the Glenn Danzig/Jerry Cantrell dark blues album they've been talking about for years.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

SCHIEPPATI Is your music taking a backseat to movies now, kind of like a Rob Zombie thing?
DANZIG No, music’s first. In fact, I’ve already started working on the music for this movie, laying down voodoo drum tracks and weird sound effects. I did a show with Hank III [country punk Hank Williams III who was the bassist for the now-defunct Superjoint Ritual] on 6/6/06, and it was a lot of fun. I was gonna do this thing with [Alice in Chains guitarist] Jerry Cantrell, depending on when our schedules would line up again, but I’m starting to think that I should do it with Hank, because the stuff we came up with was fucking incredible. It might fit the Ge Rouge movie because it’s very minimal, creepy, eerie blues stuff. I played the tapes of our rehearsal for a couple of people, and they were like, “This is serial-killer music!” I was like, “Okay, cool!” [Laughs]

SCHIEPPATI So the thing with you and Jerry Cantrell isn’t going to happen? It would be so cool to hear you guys do something bluesy together.
DANZIG Well, we’ll see. He’s trying to do this Alice in Chains reunion thing. I’m sure we’ll touch base in a month or so or whatever, but who knows where his head will be at and my head will be at by then? He’s a great guitar player, though. He played on a couple of tracks on [Danzig’s 1996 album] Blackacidevil, and it was really some incredible guitar work. He was like, “Can I do another take?” And I’m like, “Why?” [Laughs] Alice in Chains was always my favorite band from that era. They always had a darkness to them that I liked. I don’t like that many singers, but that guy [Layne Staley] could sing. It’s a shame that the whole scene was very steeped in heroin… I don’t do drugs, you know? I’ve just seen so many people die and get fucked up and lose their focus and their path. Drugs are just a waste, you know?

I heard that Check My Brain tune recently and it is rockin'. Totally impressed by it.

I'm on the guest list to see them tonight at the Paramount (second of two sold-out nights).

I've seen the line-up do a few songs (new and old) on YouTube - several from Jimmy Kimmel's show. I think it's gonna be a great night out.
