 In Memory of Layne Staley
Since that time, Staley became an ever-growing recluse in and out of treatment centers for his heroin addiction and their label continued to release compilations, the most recent being the 2001 "Greatest Hits" album.
Despite the clichés, I suppose there is nothing more left to do but accept the fact that Staley’s legacy will live on in his music and in our own veins -- as the ultimate high he was always searching for and never found.
I still remember to this day a friend of mine who suffered from the same addiction recommending to me that I listen to "Down In a Hole" to understand him only weeks before he took his own life.

 Sleaze Roxx: Layne Staley
SEATTLE (AP) - Layne Staley, lead singer and guitarist for the grunge band Alice in Chains, was found dead in his apartment, authorities said Saturday.
The latter song was partly inspired by the 1990 heroin overdose death of Andrew Wood, singer of the seminal grunge group Mother Love Bone.
In a 1996 interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Staley spoke of how his drug use influenced his lyrics.

 alice-in-chains Mp3 Albums Review
Despite Layne Staley's untimely fall and Jerry Cantrell's movement into different avenues of musical expression, this was a gift from both of them to the music world which, despite being 12 years old, has failed to lose its efficacy in displaying the beauty and power in despair.
Upon listening to this album you find bits of Cantrell here and there, which is probably what degrades this album from being their best.
The way Layne's voice and Jerry's guitar both seem to soar to the heavens (neither of which have ever sounded more powerful)seems to be more of a pleading to the almighty than a creation made for a mortal audience(see "Rotten Apple" and my personal favorite of Chains, "Nutshell").

With Staley as their scowling, tortured frontman, Alice in Chains claimed a spot as the darkest and hardest band of the early '90s grunge movement, bringing a healthy dose of metal to the new movement.
Layne Staley, Alice In Chains Singer, Dead At 34
Authorities said he'd been dead for several days, so the body wasn't immediately identifiable as that of Staley, whose longtime battle with drug dependency was a central component of his band's music — a dark and bombastic sound that continues to influence artists some 15 years after the group first formed.

They were the seminal duo who wrote the songs and created the driving metal sound that set AIC apart from the other so-called Seattle grunge bands of the early ‘90s.

Cantrell hasn’t personally commented on Layne’s death, but we’d previously reported that he only chose to make a collective statement with his ex-AIC bandmates on the official AIC website.
