Duvall fits in perfectly, but does not come off like an Layne inpersonator. Which I was worried about before I heard the new song. This video really reminds of the outstanding videos coming out from rock bands during the grunge era heyday when MTV was something you enjoyed watching. This type of story has been tried in other videos , it's original but it delivers on a played out idea in a new way. My radio station proudly added this song to active rotation the day it was available. www.rock108.com The nudity was not fun nudity. This was not boob for the sake of boobs, it was more boobs for the sake of saddness. I got chills when the tub dropped throgh the glass. If you give me chills, you win my praise.

Of all the bands that were lost in the past 20 years, Alice was the one that hurt me the most. Nobody can ever replace Layne Staley, but William DuVall does one hell of a job filling in. It's also good to see Jerry Cantrell can still make music that matters, his solo projects never did much for me. I can only wonder if the next AiC album will be an acoustic one like Jar of Flies (my favorite AiC album) or Sap. Now, if we can get Soundgarden back together............

This song is actually pretty heavy. Heavy yet melodic, just as AIC should be. Pretty impossible to try to duplicate the vocal harmonies of Staley and Cantrell though. Too fucking good Boobies!!!

Oh, and AIC wisely chose from the AC/DC playbook and picked somebody who sounds exactly like Staley. Good choice. Tits or GTFO now applies to all music videos.

What needed to be said about the music was last week, so you people can go away. It's rare to see a metal video get such high production value. And the story is equally as good. The moral being everyone is mentally screwed up somehow, and what matters is how you deal with it that. One of the 10 commandments for being a metalhead. I really liked the beginning with the cog-filled "device" being built as some bomb metaphor. From start to finish an excellent and visually stunning video. I'm definitely looking forward to the new album. Now if only I could get this video in HD... We’ve all heard the song before, so I want to talk about the video.

This song just seems to be a teaser for the new album, which is crazy because normally you don't see videos being released for teases. Although I can see this song being played on Active Rock a bit.

They could have played it safe and came up with something far more commercial, but didn't. Hard to believe it's the same band I saw nearly 20 years ago (yikes!) opening for Van Halen.

Good video. Too bad noone's gonna play it on tv. So-so new singer, but I'm basing this opinion only on the few moments he appears here. Btw I'd never suspect AIC to go this, heavier, way. That's really cool. Can't wait for the whole album! Awesome song. Good video. Too bad noone’s gonna play it on tv.
