When orthodox came out it was my favorite album because I could feel the pain in it and related. It’s still one of my favorites, but I am seriously so happy to hear you are in a better place now and down the healing rabbit hole like I am! So proud of you 🙏
Very cool to be open and share this. Rock musicians almost never open up like this so I think this is incredibly valuable. I hope it starts a conversation. I feel like I could always sense your struggles with depression through your music and it was definitely something I identified with. I'm glad you're finally getting the therapy and the help and the support you deserve. I think you're a talented artist and look forward to hearing whatever you put out in the future. But please never feel like making music should take priority over your mental health. Do what you gotta do to stay healthy first. I'll always enjoy the records you've put out no matter what.
appreciate you so much! thank you for your kind words. I wondered why musicians don't talk about their process, so I'm happy to share. again, thank you so much for your support - you're a gem.
I've been following since 2015 and i saw you a couple times when you came near Virginia. I just want to say that you're awesome and have been an inspiration for me to be a more creative person. All my respect to, sir, and very excited to hear all the new music and read your book!
amazing! appreciate you SO much. keep being creative!!!! also, whenever you're ready - Here's a link to the paperback bit.ly/thankgodfordepression and audiobook. bit.ly/ThankGodForDepressionAudiobook
Saw you guys at warped tour, bought your album there and fell in love wifh Orthodox. Just listened to the album again a few days ago and that brought me to this video. Thank you for sharing your story, journey and being able to publish it. I'll have to check out the book!
this is incredible! thank you for sharing your journey. if you're interested in the book - here's a link to the paperback bit.ly/thankgodfordepression and audiobook. bit.ly/ThankGodForDepressionAudiobook
Hey Kyle, I know this won't retroactively make your depression justified, but I hope it will give you a sense of meaning in this whole mess. I spent most of my teens listening to your music and Orthodox is honestly one of my favorite albums ever, totally up there with the classics. I'm a musician myself and we have played our jazz/neosoul/indie interpretation of Amen Amen on multiple occasions with my band. I honestly think you're one of the most genious songwriters I know about, and thank you for supplying us with great stuff. I am also more than happy to hear that you're better now, I wish you as much luck as one can get, peace ✌️
Hey Kyle! I just wanted to say, I attended an Alice in Chains concert in Saratoga. NY in 2013, and prior to the show, was wandering about the other stages, and luckily, happened upon you guys at the start of your set. Beware of Darkness produced some phenomenal music during its lifetime, and I left that show more impressed with you guys than I was with AIC or Jane's Addiction (not to discount them...) But I left that day having discovered new, great music in you guys. I just wanted you to know how you touched my soul. I instantaneously purchased Orthodox and when it released, Are You Real? and I listen to your music on the regular throughout my week. Thank you for what you created in Beware of Darkness. I can completely identify with the depression you are describing, because I deal with it and anxiety on a daily basis. I, too know what it is to have depression envelop your every move, especially songwriting. I appreciate your transparency. I will be picking up your book soon. You are a prolific songwriter and have a sound all your own. I've always appreciated that. I hope music becomes how it once felt for you again. Keep up the good fight!
your message means the world. you have no idea. I appreciate you so much for sharing. it inspires me deeply and blow my mind.. I'm sending you so much love and strength on your own journey. thank you thank you thank you. also, whenever you're ready to pick up the book - here's a link to the paperback bit.ly/thankgodfordepression and audiobook. bit.ly/ThankGodForDepressionAudiobook
this means so much, because something that has bothered me a lot over the years is how musicians don't talk about their progress. I'm so happy it's resonant with you, and THANK YOU for reading the book!!! Appreciate you so much
I remember seeing you open for Korn and the audience was so non receptive and i didnt understand why. You guys were good hard rock and everyone in the crowd was acting like snarly teengers.
I remember that show. it sort of mind boggling how many experiences we had like that. we weren't "hard" enough for bands like that. thank you though. also, I'm dropping the final albums - check it out here - bit.ly/finalBODrecordsIndiegogo
Ive been basically depressed my whole life, I wish I could afford to go do an ayahuasca ceremony but capitalism had made sure thats not going to be an option I think a big problem was they chose the wrong singles and also the industry is sped up nowadays, you gotta always be touring and producing new stuff, the rolling stones got to take a year or two off and go do them between crazy tour schedules and new albums, the beatles got to just go f off to india and get high for a while if they wanted, they had time to acclimatize into the life and nowadays people get jammed into immediately.with no support and a buncha ever-present music industry ghouls pushing them to be as profitable as possible. Take your time and make the music you wanna make man! Im patient im here for it
@BewareOfDarkness after listening to the video, paying attention to the lyrics makes me question how much of your life you have put into each of the songs. Going through Are You Real with new eyes and ears.

This is what people need to hear.
just want ing to share my truth : )
Secret album for the win!!
I love it.
@BewareOfDarkness after listening to the video, paying attention to the lyrics makes me question how much of your life you have put into each of the songs. Going through Are You Real with new eyes and ears.
it was everything. writing some of those songs was painful but cathartic.
Thanks
of course buddy
this is the guy
es verdad.
I had no idea….You made some sick music bro. Please fix, or dont fix it and make some more sick music. But anyway, whatever your decision, thank you!
