LAYNE STALEY DIED SIX YEARS AGO TODAY… [SATURDAY SONGS TO (DIE OR) GET STONED TO]

Layne Staley died 6 years ago today of a heroin overdose and his rotting corpse was found 2 weeks later. What a sad way for a talented singer, frontman, and one of the most influential men of late ’80s / early ’90s metal and grunge to go. Meditate on that as you listen to these tracks and smoke your Saturday afternoon bowl.

R.I.P. Layne Staley. (August 22, 1967 – ca. April 5, 2002)
