Alice In Chains - Last Of My Kind Lyrics

What a beautifuly brutal song and those heavy rifs are masterpiece, apsolutley thumbs up

Best song on the album by far! The sooner Jerry figures out that William is more than worthy of lead duties, the better the albums will be

Piper is better

Damn, this has heavy and haunting sound. Just like Dirt or Facelift songs. And DuVall makes one of the best performances with this masterpiece. Also go and see them live. They are in outstanding live condition.

Jerry is all metal ,lane gave him something to go on with.

They're fucking great live.

I have burned all my bridges at church too. I still attend a small Bible study once a week that me and a couple of friends started. We may start our own church if we can ever get it together between us.

I really like this. But does anyone else think it sounds like Drangula but slower?

I heard Dragula for the first time and immediately thought of this song. Checked out the video to see if anyone else had noticed. The riffs are almost identical.

I’ve now heard this about 50 times in a day why?bc aid hadn’t had a song like this in a long time the first refrain is killer

my experience with church was better than that. I am still welcome there, but I don't disagree with them lest God punish them for being contrary. I quit attending because I got tired of seeing them get hurt and the worship music is boring. Lovely song.

Pretty good first time hearing this— let Williams voice out he’s pretty good with heavy stuff

Omg fucking awesome

Amazing song just rocks it up

Probably my favourite song on the album, the vocals are insane!

I really want to know about the sounds and stuff at the beginning. I wonder if it's from old content or songs or something.

fn swine

bullshit

This album is so amazing. I love Layne just like the rest of you, but Im so glad Alice came back.

Im just saying but duvall voice sounds like kiss peter criss

Jerry the riff machine Cantrell

Cool song.

Badass song

There is something amazing about the sound this song makes. I love it!
[edit] I'm listening to it again XD

AIC 🤘👊❤🎸🔊

tonight in israel
cant fuckin believe it
r.ip layne

Rock N Roll: Rockers like last my kind AIC 2018?

harder than your dick

Ohohhhh, from out upon the hillsideeeee...

I love this song. It was the first moment that made me say, "hell yes. this guy can front my favorite band and I will continue to support them." His style and strength as a singer is so on point in this song. Plus, it rocks!

This song sounds very close to Metallica stuff. Love them both.

Metallica ripped this sound off for two albums. . . They wished they was alice in the 90's. True

Always thought this sounded like a Pantera song

I could see it with some more technical drumming

Not at all.

I heard the intro of thanks anyway of Jerry cantrell (degradation trip)!!,i love the album and all the songs and this song kicking my ass too!!! AIC will be for ever my favourite band of all time!. Jerry Rocks, William Rocks,R.I.P. Layne😇😇

Will kills it. Jerry got some pipes too. It aint the same, but I'm AIC for life.

Lol. Yeah, I meant William DuVall. Must have had to many windows open again.

Dirt vibes!

completely

I really Love William, he's Hot and a Great Dude :)

Ewwww .....

Jerry still making his guitar his bitch. Hardest creative riffs ever in my opinion. Underrated.

Not so hardest riffs. BUT Jerry is a solid composer, not a guitar neck-wanker. His songs and, particularly, riffs are the fucking adamant pillars in the Rock universe history. The ingenious is always simple!

Richard Skipper Completely agree. Listen to all of the songs he composed and tell me he isn't very unique.

This song reminds me of a girl who broke my heart

My favorite non-Layne AiC song. So good!

Why do I love this song sooo much

Anv Andola Because maybe like me you have lived what he is yelling..?

I wish Alice In Chains would come back to Seattle. We need music again.

Jamal Sampson their new album that's going to drop this summer is the first album AIC has done in Seattle in 20 years !

let's go

3:18 se pudre

jerry keep going your a fucking genius...keep it rolling....stone.

I heard baby dragons awaking 0:09

ZacSam16. lmfao! hahahha

7 people wanted to be the first of their kind

1:29 - Great riff.

Damn Killer!

Fuckin capital A. Jerry's riffs always got my undivided attention.

From 4:35 to about the 5:00 mark, you think you're listening to Layne - if that doesn't put a smile on your face, nothing will. :)

Charlie Doherty Damn dude. I never caught that. Heavy.

Richard Skipper the level of right you are is what's haunting 🕸🤘

I don't hear anything of Layne in DuVall's voice. Good. Layne is gone and I didn't want a replacement. The dude is one of my favorite singers of all time, he's fucking astounding, but I didn't want Alice to replace him, I wanted them to reform with a new singer and that's what they did. Reform a new sound while still maintaining some of what has made them great. And they did exactly that. That's why they are my favorite band of all time.

Yeah! My favourite AIC song!

Lucifer servant theme.

is it just me or does this song have Japanese elements in first few minutes?

The first few seconds makes me think of Silent Hill.

This sounds like it would fit right in on the album Dirt... Awesome

I've had the dirt album in my truck for the past week or so, I definitely have to agree.

That drop at 3:25 is my favorite part. But it's nothing without the 3 minutes that precede it!

totally agree. I start headbanging with a evil face when that part come down

finally someone gets it

@Nicolás Riveros Seen them live a few days ago. Agree

Absolute face melter

Gotta love the James Bond chord progression

One of the band's best.

I don't care what anyone says - old or new, Alice in Chains will smite thee in all its doomy glory.

Did you just drop acid?.old rules

Samvis Gamgod still love this band they’re doing a great job

I love this one

i love jerry, but william needs more of the vocal duties, this song is fucking epic!

Yup, it's gotten worse on the new album. They essentially just use William live and on the albums he's a backup singer. A lot of people do not know but one of the main reasons that Layne stepped away from AIC wasn't because of his addiction at first, it was actually because Jerry and the label kept pressuring Layne to let Jerry become lead singer and lead more of the singles and Layne wouldn't stand for it. He didn't think Jerry was a good singer at all. I remember reading that in an article in the 90's.

Of coruse if you read recent interviews Cantrell tries spinning it as the opposite that it was Layne who got him to start singing more but if you read press from the actual time period it was clear that the label and Jerry found Layne unreliable and for fear of him quitting the band they wanted Jerry to take over lead vocals so the band could survive Layne quitting. Layne resisted

I agree with you - one of the reasons I was reluctant to enjoy new AIC was because I'm actually not a big fan of Jerry's voice. He's good at backing vocals, but on lead duties he sounds a bit weak. His voice doesn't have the same edge as Layne/Duvall's. I'd actually be way more into AIC new stuff if Will sang more.

He is the last of his kind. He is the last black guy who makes good music.

him and Dug Pinnick of Kings X

what about howard jones when he was lead singer for killswitch engage? he's still doin' his thing.

sevendust singer

Sooo... anyone from a recently debuted band?

So young, so brazen, so unholy
I come to you in painted skies
You're broken saint, your ancient story
The living challenge to their lies

Trapped in the cold outside
There ain't no shelter
And they want to force my hand
Until I take what I wanted
And break all the lies
And defeat the fucking liars
Smash all the temples
And crawl through the rubble
And cry to the fallen

I'm the last of my kind still standing
I'm the last of my kind still standing down the law...

A wolf alone upon the hillside
I live on what they throw away
I go to sleep behind the eight ball
I live to fight for one more day

I'm trapped in the cold outside
There ain't no shelter
And they want to force my hand
Until I take what I wanted
And break all the lies
And defeat the fucking liars
Smash all the temples
And crawl through the rubble
And cry to the fallen

Take what I wanted
And break all the lies
And defeat the fucking liars
Smash all the temples
And crawl through the rubble
And cry to the fallen

I'm the last of my kind still standing
I'm the last of my kind still standing down the law...

I'm the last of my kind still standing
I'm the last of my kind still standing down the law...

I'm the last of my kind still standing
The last of my kind still standing

muy buena cancion 

heavy/angry music is the best kind of music i don't kind care if people say otherwise.

is this what they mean by kick arss roll n rock ? 

To me this a return soldiers survival story, all the things they had to endure in battle to what they face in existence in society in past, today & possibly future, will be something we pray to never have to ever experience.

El ultimo de mi clase...Espectacular.

1:28 FUCK YEA

This music is very cool!

this is the alice in chains that i remember !

Fav song on this album \(^_^)/

Mine too! And now I am just going and liking everyone's comments cuz y'all are my people.

Have not heard AIC in a while, this track is kicking my ass!! Love it...

This songs looks so badass because of the bass!
