The Rooster

Mood:
Depression, anger
Approx. Running Time:
1.5 hours

Ingredients

  • The Corw (DVD or VHS)
  • Dirt by Alice In Chains
Setup Instructions
I've been slaving away finding albums that could possibly synch with "The Crow" starring Brandon Lee. Then it hit me, Dirt by Alice in Chains. They both give off a similar mood and it made me go WOAH! The first play through was phenomenal, The second play dwindles a little bit but it comes right back. One of the best tracks in this synch is the rooster, its just surprising how well it works with the movie. Every track in the first play through is very relevant to whats going on i might put up a synch list if you dont catch everything that goes on.

IMPORTANT

Pay very close attention to the lyrics, this is a very lyrical piece.

:THE SETUP:

Get your copy of The Crow and push play on Dirt when you see THE CROW in white letters on a black background. This happens after you see Brandon Lee's name. If you did it right the words should fade away in 2 secods and Them Bones will start just before they do.

Here are some check points.

5:43 - 5:44 You hear a high pitched sound (kind of like a windchime) when the cop shakes the mustard.

6:32 as soon as you see the car you should here a distorted guitar that sounds kinda like an engine reving.

--------------------------------------------

The hints for this synch are quite obvious;

1. Brandon Lee and Layne Staley both died at a young age (40 may not be young but Layne could have live much longer than that.)

Brandon Lee February 1, 1965. Died March 31, 1993

Layne Thomas Staley (August 22, 1967 - ca. April 5, 2002)

They died close to the same date. ca or circa means about or close to. He could have possibly died on the same day because he was found dead in his appartment, he was dead for about a week or two but they estimated that he died around then.

2. Dirt was released in Febuary 1992, Brandon Lee died in March 1993, which is one month and one year later.

3. Alice in Chains next cd , Jar of Flies, was released in 1994 as was The Crow. This was their first album to peak at #1 on the billboard top 100's, The Crow was extremely popular as well and grossed $94,000,000 Worldwide including $11,774,332 in its opening weekend. Thats almost 1 billion dollars. It was also #10 of R-rated movies in 1994.

Need i say more?

If you dont like the movie or Alice in Chains this probably isnt for you. if you havent heard of either you should go to your movie store and your record store and buy these!

One of the best parts is when track nine starts you hear all this crazy satanic laughing and Brandon lee just got shot in the hand, him and funboy are laughing. then Brandon turns his hand towards funboy and laughs santanicly as his hand regenerates.

Additional Notes
If you want try playing the cd's track listing in reverse order,

Down in a hole was good

An awsome part was when Hate to Feel was playing, Layne screamed PAINT MY FACE, when Brandon Lee was painting his face.

Or try this alternate track listing

When down in a hole comes on its DEVISTATING you will die on how amazing it is. Also you will go What the F@&*# when track nine comes on.

That is a short list, im trying to expand the tracks.
