Black Gives Way to Blue...

It's not 100% great, but there's several tracks that are really fantastic...

#1, #2, #4, #5, and #7 are particularly good... the last half seems slower, more like 'Jar of Flies' than the first half.

Cantrell does a lot of singing on the slower tunes and he has solo writing credits on all the songs but like 2.

Edit: I just listened to the title track, (last one on the disc) really close... it's good too.. Elton John does the piano on it... obviously a tribute to Layne.

From what I've heard of it, it is a great album. Of course it's not the same as when they had Layne, but I don't think that is a fair expectation. As my friend Zcustom has pointed out before, Layne and Jerry had a one of a kind harmony that you just can't reproduce. Thats not to say what Wiliam and Jerry have isn't good, it is, but it's very much different.

I think this album is a fitting tribute to Layne and I believe he would be proud.

I think it's excellent. There were a few tracks that I didn't care for, but after multiple listens I dig the entire thing. Easily one of the best albums I've heard in a while.

I listened to it all the way to Raleigh this afternoon... I really like it... track one is just bad ass, really, really good.

The last track, the title track is fantastic too, just way too short, only 3 minutes.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
