ALICE IN CHAINS DIRT LYRICS MOVIE

Similarly powerful was the video, in which director Mark Pellington interspersed scenes of Apocalypse Now-style brutality with an interview with CantrellвЂ™s father. вЂњIt turned out to be really powerful,вЂќ notes Cantrell, вЂњand the way Layne sang on it is amazing.вЂќ

Rooster was taped at Eldorado Studios on LAвЂ™s Sunset Boulevard, which the band co- produced with Dave Jerden. вЂњSo in the session that was meant for recording that one song, we ended up demoing about 10 songs, which included all the stuff that ended up on the Sap EP, Rooster and a couple of others from Dirt.вЂќ Rooster by Alice In Chains: the video

вЂњCameron Crowe had already come to us to ask for a song for his movie Singles,вЂќ recalls Cantrell. When it came to recording Rooster, the band turned a prior engagement to their advantage. ItвЂ™s more of a forum to dig deeper.вЂќ Alice In Chains had enjoyed some success with their 1990 debut album Facelift and its single Man In The Box, but Rooster was arguably the first song to announce the depth of the bandвЂ™s talent.Д¬antrell recalls that вЂњit felt like a major achievement for me as a young writer,вЂќ and this sentiment was echoed when he played the demo to vocalist Layne Staley, bassist Mike Starr and drummer Sean Kinney. To be honest, I didnвЂ™t really sit down intending to do any of that it just kinda came out.Д«ut thatвЂ™s the great thing about music вЂ“ sometimes it can reach deeper than you ever would in a conversation with anybody. But on Rooster, I was trying to think about his side of it вЂ“ what he might have gone through. вЂњI certainly had resentments,вЂќ Cantrell notes, вЂњas any young person does in a situation where a parent isnвЂ™t around or a family is split.
