The song is great, it sounds like Alice in Chains trying to do a slow Ozzy-era Black Sabbath tune. I like it when grunge bands do these kind of songs ('New Damage' by Soundgarden is in this vein) where they give a hat-tip to the original metal band Black Sabbath!!
The other thing I like about the video is its sci-fi theme! Dude this music video combines so much stuff I like... grunge, Black Sabbath, and sci-fi...
My only concern with Alice in Chains coming out with this is that it might saturate the market with grunge now that Soundgarden is back too! If memory serves the Rolling Stones and Beatles never released an album in the same year so that they would not over-saturate the market with British-Invasion rock.
Well it does look like Hollow is just a single and the rest of the album isn't due for a-while so perhaps my concern is pre-mature. Yes Soundgarden and Alice in Chains are back and Generation X is going to rock on!!
