sigma grindset
Mason Thomas
he didn't want to take the easy way out like cobain did
Jeremiah Edwards
He genuinely wanted to live unlike Cobain but his addiction was too severe
Jack White
I used to think that he was just another zonked out "you don't understand my pain, man" rockstar. After paying closer attention to some of his music (like the title track on Dirt, which he apparently wrote the lyrics for) and finding out about his last interview, I find his death way more tragic. The dude was sucked into drugs by his own father and poured a bunch of money into treatments to get better, but it just wasn't enough. He was absolutely ashamed of his heroin use and his inability to stop. It's incredibly sad to learn how he felt about it.
>I’m not using drugs to get high like many people think. I know I made a big mistake when I started using this shit. It’s a very difficult thing to explain... I never wanted to end my life this way. I know I have no chance. It’s too late. I never wanted [the public’s] thumbs up about this fucking drug use. Don’t try to contact any AIC (Alice in Chains) members. They are not my friends.
David Peterson
Damn, why did he dislike them near the end? From what I know the last person he saw was Mike Staar after they argued
Josiah Hernandez
His father didn't introduce him to heroin (it was his gf) but he came back to his life to use with him at one point after being away from his life
After like 1999 he had pretty much cut ties to most people and only let his drug buddies be around. I think the crack use he also did really did him in towards the end. Bob Forrest said when he visited Layne with John Frusciante that "his mind was working but he was million miles away". Also Mark Lanegan came to see Layne after getting sober and Layne refused to believe it had been one year since they saw each other because his sense of time had become so warped.
Wyatt Thomas
Sludge Factory is a fucking haunting song because of how it basically describes literally everyone he knew enabling or brushing off his addiction. The sound of him rotting away.
Joseph Cooper
Definitely one of the most interesting stories of any singer I know of in that scene. It’s an eerie thought, him decaying in that apartment.
Jace Rogers
Heroin feel good
Christopher Miller
Some people say it was he who introduced her to heroin though.
Alexander Walker
he was down in a hole
John Long
He evolved into a puddle of goo
Charles Bennett
he was the man in the box
Easton Diaz
He became a junkhead, sadly
Jeremiah Long
he felt so alone, gonna end up a big old pile of them bones
Dominic Wilson
Got the whole squad laughing
Ryder Foster
Well in the AIC untold story book people close to him said that at one night during the Van Halen tour Demri went to look coke for Layne but came back with heroin because no coke was to be found.
Adrian Hall
the most fucked up part is in the few days before he was discovered his cats ate his cheeks, ears and penis and testicles.
Asher Thomas
I hate cats so much it's unreal. Dogs would never do that, man
Landon Jenkins
ninja looking ass
Chase Thomas
Layne wearing a metal gear solid shirt
Cameron Hill
Wait, where did you hear that? I just read his cat(s) apparently survived two weeks by eating him, but do you have a specific link to that?
Isaac Richardson
That’s apparently the last public photo of him.
Nicholas Sullivan
He looked better than me bros...
Gavin Flores
The last photo was from 1999 I think so he died a few years later.
