----- Black Gives Way to Blue 'ALBUM' Review-----
1. All Secrets Known - Heavy as fuck. AIC is the band every modern hard rock band (Chevelle, Disturbed, etc) tries to be, but arent nearly as good.
2. Check My Brain - Awesome, heavy, deep groove. Dense vocal harmonies, inflection just like Layne. Depth.
3. Last Of My Kind - Power grooves, bass present throughout.
4. Your Decision - Acoustic. First time you can hear Duvalls voice upfront without all the layers of guitars and harmonies. Verse sounds like Keep on Rockin in the Free World. Multi-layer vocal harmony. very 90s guitar.
5. A Looking In View - God damn this song is heavy. Track 1-3 were also as heavy as this. This album is slow, groovy. Slow heavy as opposed to fast heavy. Sometimes slow is heavier than fast. Fade out no one really does fade-outs anymore.
6. When The Sun Rose Again - Another acoustic song. Is this the Layne song? Kinney bongos. Electric solo great shoulda been longer.
7. Acid Bubble - Slowest yet heavy. Not going for poppy choruses on this record, just good songs and emotion. Part 2 fastest section on the record yet. Back to part 1. This song is epic. Back to part 2!
8. Lessons Learned - mid-paced rocker most like old AIC so far. Duvalls voice really low, haunting. Pretty sweet chorus. Possible single.
9. Take Her Out - Big, slower, but arena-rocky. Major key chorus. Reminds me of Sea of Sorrow. Short but fitting solo. Song still kinda slow and plodding (in a good way).
10. Private Hell - Really slow but still loud. Distorted guitars. AIC are the Crowbar of alt-metal/rock. Gigantic sounding guitars on this whole record. Another ace solo Jerry not a guitar hero, just plays whats right.
11. Black Gives Way To Blue - Quiet. piano + guitar + vocals. Layne song? melancholy. I Remember You.
