Free Music Notes for Boggy DepotFree Music Review: Solid, Compact, Soulful, Feels good to hear, Jerry's got soul!
When I first heard this I was ready to write it off as a boring, flat album full of uninspired riffs with standard vocals. When I actually listened though and I mean a careful listen to the whole album not just a preview of a few songs, then I realized what I Jerry Cantrell had created was nothing short of amazing. His voice matches the mood, tempo, lyrics, and riffs perfectly. This album is more mainstream and easier to listen to than some of Alice in Chains work but that doesn't mean it lacks soul, it just exudes that soulful tone in a less tortured way. There are some really great catchy tunes here as well as the wierd ones. DICKEYE the first song is a great driving hard hitting rock song with a great catchy chorus. CUT YOU IN is a strange little number that has great little bouncing acoustic guitar riffs and the lyrics seems to speak of friends who are a little pre occupied with partying than keeping friendships. MY SONG is a great slow tempo song that bursts into a great loud chorus and nice little melodic guitar bits and soulful singing this song sounds like Cantrell times 10. SETTLING DOWN is another slow number with an uplifting chrous the piano througout the song is beautiful and haunting! BREAKS MY BACK is a acid tripping watery meltdown of vocals and chiming guitar over a slow bumping groove, very nice bass lines. JESUS HANDS starts mellow and haunting arrpegiated intro and continues with a mellow haunting chrous that becomes electrified, Jerry's voice sounds almost alien and childlike in this one, very creepy indead. DEVIL BY HIS SIDE is a rocking groove of a number similiar to a PIXIES song but with Jerry rocking pitch bending lead lines and soulful singing this like DICKEYE sound very poppy and mainstream but also haunting in that heart melting way. KEEP THE LIGHT ON sounds almost like an Alice in Chains song almost like It Ain't Like That great grooving pounding rock verse then just a great soulful sweet chorus, this one will have you humming along. SATISFY is a great slow number with Jerry's voice as the main event with very tender lead lines played throughout, and then a knockout hard hitting chorus. There seems to be alot of contrast here with either a very slow intro followed by a hard hitting chorus or a fast intro followed by a slow haunting chorus. HURT A LONG TIME is a very sad a soaring number almost country in it's nature with slide guitar and reverberated choruses very soulful ballad with sad love story lyrics and tragedy laced theme. BETWEEN sounds almost like another country inspired tune with very happy major chords but when the chorus kicks in you hear whats in Jerrys heart as he strums a nice kicking chorus with a short little twangy solo, this one is definiately a standout!! COLD PIECE is the closing song with some great lounge club piano and jazzy little drum sections as well as the most soulful singing yet from Jerry. So in conclusion this album has a standout in every song while not a well known masterpiece not one song on here is meaningless and Jerry fills this entire album with his heart and soul, meshed with hard rock rhythyms, crushing soaring guitar, pop hooks, sweet soulful singing, this album will bring the sunshine then the darkness, then the sunshine once again!!! There is never a dull moment here.
