We had tracked with him in L.A., and then we went up to Seattle with Toby Wright. So considering it was done in different states with different producers, I think it turned out to be pretty classic Alice". "Get Born Again" was released as a single in 1999. "Get Born Again" peaked at number four on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and at number 12 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart. The song was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance in 2000.
