'cut you in' might have made a minor impact, about as much as the 'seven mary three' single from around the same time. anyone else remember them? how about candlebox?

alice in chains got lucky in the fact that they were able to be more than the sum of their parts when everything was working to their advantage. outside of that group the individual members just weren't that outstanding. they don't suck, they're just not that great either.
I'm curious to what you've heard from them as a band (AIC) and individually. I went through a period of youtubing them and they never fail to touch me. Staley's voice on it's own is enough to give me goosebumps. I think Jerry Cantrell is as humble as they come for all the attention the band has received. Though his solo albums can get under my skin at times when it gets way too emotional for my liking, I think Boggy Depot is phenomenal.
