Love your work!
I’ve been listening to a lot of AIC lately. I think sunshine is 1 of my fav songs. The vibe is so cool how it’s like sunshine chorus slows down and the I don’t care no more like you step out in the sunlight and all the problems in the world disappear. It has such a genuine feel. Too bad he passed atleast he did put out a ton of music and I do like the new version of AIC.
You're sick for making this video. All of this common information for any fan. You basically just read off a Wikipedia page. I hope your not making making money off of someone's death/addiction story🤢🤮🤮
dont know if you guys gives a shit but if you're bored like me during the covid times then you can watch all of the new movies on InstaFlixxer. Been binge watching with my gf for the last days =)
@Romeo Damari yea, I have been watching on InstaFlixxer for months myself =)
Layne death was literally opposite of Kurt's. The line "its better to burn out than to fade away". Kurt burned out and Layne faded away. They are both extremely sad in different ways.
neil young ✊🏿😔
@@TheAxzom you will never know for sure one way or another, unfortunately.
Kurt was murdered and so was Cornell.
Both thanks to heroin
Zman953 have you seen the evidence. Even the former police chief of SPD said it should be reopened. They’ll never beable to convict or try Allen Wrench as he left no prints or evidence. No man has ever OD on heroin and shot them selves after. It makes no sense.
Still broken hearted in 2021 now, and still very much missed Layne...Kurt and Chris and so very many more. Always.. forever! Rest in Peace my brothers.🕯🌠
It hurts me everytime knowing how young they died. I wish Layne, Kurt, Chris, Chester Bennington were still alive today.
@@Undeadmetalhead87 Scott Weiland, Mark Lanagen.
The music lives on. I followed Alice all through my high school years. Fast forward and im a father now. My son is 16. I walked past his room just a couple days ago. Piercing through his door was the music of Alice in Chains. I was taken back quickly to a time when the music ruled me. Alice in Chains will live on. Thanks for the memories.
Nancy McCallum's quote is horrifying in the most honest and heartbreaking way. It almost seems like Layne had literally shrunk away into nothing. Nobody noticed he was missing for two weeks. At least Cobain and Cornell were mourned globally when they passed but Layne slipped away so quietly it seemed nobody noticed. the first person to notice was his banker only because there was no activity in his bank account. That's the most depressing thing about this; his money was the only thing keeping him tethered to Earth cause everyone had forgotten him as a person. This is what makes his death the most tragic and sad of the the Grunge Movement (IMHO).
That's not really how I remember it. People still cared about AIC and fans constantly talked about them and their hopes the band would one day get going again. Certain people close to Layne, like his friends and family would be in contact with him, but he was so reclusive and isolated, he wasn't picking up the phone, or opening the door, except to seemingly a handful of people. If that's your day to day life, your accountant might be the first to ring the alarm. I'm sure his dealer must have feared the worst long before the accountant, but your drug dealer isn't exactly going to call 911. Such a tragic end. Even Kurt also laid dead for 2 or 3 days before anyone found him.
I read an account that he only opened the door for the pizza guy and his drug dealer.
@@danny355 yes absolutely agree!! Only Kurt having been laying there deceased was very well known to close circle..rather surrounded circle.
I heard his mom though there was a mannequin on the floor but it turned out it was Layne 😔
@@nonameman7114 Seattle police had stated in their reports that upon realizing that it was Layne and not a mannequin on the couch that his body was in such a severe state of decomposition that his skin had a dark and leathery appearance to it, I could imagine the smell perforating throughout his apartment must have been unimaginable, I don't know how his cat Sadie was still alive for the 2 weeks Layne went unfound, police had stated that although Layne's cat was so frightened from them kicking the door in (April,19th 02) that afterward it was hesitant to approach people; it was only starving, I don't know how his mom who was there could have recovered(if at all) from seeing all of that, forget his rockstar status, this was her son, a friend to many people in his life, a relative in his family and a brother to his bandmates, the only casualty from Layne's death that I can really think of is Mike Starr, he never got over Layne's death, forget the fact about how he stormed out of Layne's apartment and blacked out from benzo's for 2 weeks afterward, The fact that he could have done something are the demons that ultimately got him in the end, an overwhelming guilt he could never escape no matter how many years rolled by or how many prescription drugs he abused, personally I am agnostic but would like to believe that some place or somewhere he, Layne, Demri and everyone they all knew in their circle or lives that are since dead are all reunited in a place far beyond our understanding, heaven is only a concept to me, not a reality, but when you see pictures of all of them together or even just Layne and Demri you can't help but feel a pain in your chest for what became of them, staring at a curtain picture of layne and demri on another youtube video(Layne and Demri Part 2)before their shared addiction's consumed them both; on my computer screen while drinking glass after glass of whiskey in silence out of feeling so bad for them; just observing this picture of them both when they were still full of life and happy together, honestly i could only feel a deep pain in my chest out of pity and grief, Demri was very beautiful from pictures you can find anywhere on the internet, what happened to the both of them they didn't deserve at all, the real tragedy of it all is if Layne and Demri had just left Seattle and didn't come back they wouldn't of still had contact with all their dealers and drug buddie's, they could of had a fresh start, a second chance, Layne had said this to Mark Lanagen who came to Layne's place to be there for him the day he was told the news of his ex-fiance's death, that he had all the money and resources to leave but never did, THAT is probably, in my opinion, the kind of guilt that destroyed whatever was left of him inside, because after that there were no longer any reasons for him to kick himself off heroin, there was nothing keeping him here anymore, no more reasons, nothing and no advice, friends or all the love in the world could have stopped him from going down the path he went after Demri's death, how much he loved her he just stopped caring and was going to die no matter what anyone did in the end regardless
RIP Layne Staley and Mike Starr
Weird how Starr was the last guy to supposedly see Layne alive. Kinda like how right before Johnny Thunders died, him & Jerry Nolan shook hands in the same place they met almost 20 years earlier; last time they ever saw each other.
The only interviewer that actually let's his guests speak
Nice shot man!!!
That's why I say "Hey Dan, nice shot. Good shot, Dan." 😜
I’m so sad to think he died alone like that I hope he knew how much he was loved and appreciated RIP Lyane
According to Friends like Mark Lannegan they tried to get him to let ppl in but he refused.
He wouldnt see anyone.
They had to get police to do a welfare check, then it was too late.
The song "died" is beyond sad. Really expresses how layne felt about damri passing. Down in a hole and junkhead among several although great songs, they're really just sad. I really wish he would accept the help he needed
Down In A Hole unplugged is beautiful.
Rotten Apple is good too
@@Cairo98_ one of my favorites. Even though its written by Jerry about a woman, you can give it your own interpretation. I have my own interpretation I can relate to for myself but also one for Layne. Which I gave to it before I found out Jerry wrote it. I believe Layne had a spiritual mission and so did he think, said a bandmember from mad season. It made me give the interpretation of down in a hole to Layne that he was stuck and split between his worldly physical life and his life as a person with spiritual mission. sorry if it’s a bit vague but don’t feel like further explaining for now. It comes down to we can all have our own interpretations to a song, down in a hole is absolutely hauntingly beautiful, Layne was an absolutely beautiful and intriguing person with a spiritual mission. He has touched me and changed me forever.
@@ryano460 He went further down that hole after his girlfriend passed. 💔
I think his solo song “things you do” was most tragic since he wrote it right after Demri died
RIP Layne, you are truly missed.
I’ve been to this place when I visited Seattle and kept walking around for a while... it’s such a strange feeling, sometimes I open google maps and put myself there again, and just start imagining what was going on in his mind, how he interacted with place around him...
it’s just weird, but I just feel like I connect to Layne’s story on a very personal, spiritual level
Same!
Same..Absolutely!!
I would love to visit it one day as well..
I too visited the condo while in Seattle for the first time a little over a year ago. Very surreal, I also felt myself just lingering, picturing Layne walking in and out of the door to the neighborhood stores. I didn't want to leave. I stayed close to an hour somehow, and will definitely go back. RIP Layne.
You CAN'T imagine what was going on in his mind, because you haven't BEEN in his mind. The man is dead, leave him alone. It's one thing to miss him and to be saddened by his demise, it's a whole different and frankly pathetic thing to try to be him. He would be creeped out as hell with all the vicarious pseudo suffering you people have been posting. 🤢
Poor Mike Starr never got over Laynes passing, WE THE FANS of Layne will never get over his passing either!
As an addict in recovery and a huge Alice fan I can relate,my partner died from
Pneumonia brought on from years of addiction to Heroin ,Crack and prescription meds 5 months ago and I've lived alone isolated (due to COVID 19) but CLEAN ever since , I'm so sad Layne (and Demi)didn't make it but his incredible music live on , thank you so much for your brilliant series and thoughtful approach to addiction,it is a disease and most don't make it but if you know an addict your support could make the difference between life or death !literally so please be kind, not all addicts are bad people ....,brilliant series cheers Dan cant wait for the next one!!
Stay clean and safe. Praying for you.
No addicted are bad people. Your partner sounds like they were a wonderful person. Dont let the passing become in vein. Stay clean. That is exactly what they want for you. And I am proud of you as well. Keep fighting the good fight and remember just one hour, one day at a time. I can assure you that it gets alot better with time. I never believed it would and I thought I'd be miserable forever without the substance. Its much greener on the other side. Give it around a year and a half or so. You will see major differences in yourself and you will feel alot better. Keep it up!
And don't believe or think that you need na or something like that. Or a rehab. Works for some. For others its much more internal and doing it themselves works for them. Keep going.
Congratulations on your recovery ! I’m going on 12 years clean and am proud as hell of myself ! Addiction to alcohol or drugs is not fun ! It has taken the. Best musicians
@@Hubcapdiamondstarhalo I agree, AA/NA doesn't work for everyone.
Daniel...thank you so much for these great videos.
It's really appreciated..
Your channel is providing content this niche has needed for years! Great work man you deserve more subs!
I love your content and I love that you're keeping the legends alive. You seem like an authentic, humble dude.
Daniel, keep it up!
The fact that Will can harmonize with Jerry is 100% what makes this work. I've loved AIC since facelift, and I never thought we'd get them again. I'm psyched that this version of the band exists.
I just started listening again to alice in chains and doing more research on Layne and I'm in tears after 20 years 💔😭
Thank you so much Daniel for sharing this.
Now this is some good content!!! You are the man Daniel!! Keep up the Layne vids! There are no good documentaries about him! Not any that have any substance that hasn’t be regurgitated 10000 times already!
Can you even imagine how awful that would have been for Nancy...ugh he was amazing and very much missed #riplsms
I remember that day. It was 9th grade. I had "dedicated my life to spreading the word of Alice in Chains" by handing out burned CD's. I made friends with a small group of people who just wanted to identify with rock. I'll never forget when the little wierd one approached me in the lunch line and said "you hear about the singer of your band? He died man". I got into my moms car after school and fell apart. She assured me it was a mean rumor, until I got home and watched VH1. It crushed me
Damn 😧
I really appreciate your work, dude.
Great to see you're channel is doing well, Dan.
Loving all the Alice In Chains videos you’ve been doing, man!
I never noticed that both Layne and Kurt died on April 5th
Holy shit
Your videos are so great! How do you not have more subscribers? The work you have dome on AIC is so well presented and to think you’re doing it on your own. So cool. I will be sharing your channel every chance I get :)
I don't know... Seems like I'll always be like this, looking for an answer for what happened.
Is like... I can't accept Layne is not here anymore
Sad we didn't get much more of AIC with Layne. Jerry Cantrell is god.
Most underrated songwriter probably ever
@@mattkess3156 Indeed very underrated
I still get choked up to this day watching Layne related content.. R.I.P brother
Great video, Daniel. Still amazed how a great performer Layne was.
cool vid man! love layne, such a tragic and slow end. RIP
RIP Layne. More Alice in Chains content please
awesome video. thanks for posting it.
I will never forget alice in chains! Layne Staley is and will always be a rock legend!
It’s beyond me why this channel doesn’t have more subs. I’ve watched almost every video. Everything is very well done and factual. Keep doing what you’re doing and you’ll get there.
I really appreciate that man, thank you
@@DanielSarkissian I really do mean that Daniel. You do excellent work. I can tell you put a lot of work into your vids and I appreciate that work. Keep doing what you’re doing.
Damn Daniel! Back at it again with the great vids!
Came across your videos last month and been a steady viewer since. Solid content and chasing the right questions. Definitely keep up the great work.
He only weighed 86 pounds at the time of his death, that’s shocking for any adult, let alone for a man of his height, my God Layne how I wish things would have been different for you 🥺
The deep artists, cant function without another version of themselves. Usually happens with the first time they get confidence from an outside source like alcohol/drugs..love. Love being a drug too. I doubt he would have ever known he could sing without these outside sources. Crazy but I think the thing that killed him made him, as well. In retrospect, Im jealous of God, hes got all the amazing artists...almost. Must be one heaven of a party up there.
Let’s gooo Alice In Chains and nirvana are my 2 favorite bands love the content Daniel!
Well done Daniel. Going from strength to strength!
Great interviews and documentary. Alice is my favorite band. Making music myself we definitely have the alice influence in our music but never copied their style. Much respect for this band and Jerry is the man. Great vid man!
Same here, all my stuff has some Alice sounds, you can definitely tell I was inspired by them
Before watching this video, my thoughts are " is this shameless click bait grave robbery"
Edit: ok, I was wrong, you did a great job telling Layne's story, the quote from his mother really hit me hard. The interviews really made this video.
Constructive criticism; it ended rather abruptly, I would have watched more. Great job and thank you for this!
I love this video! Channel is awesome and very underrated!
All these videos are fantastic
Very respectful RIP LAYNE AND MIKE ❤🕶❤🕶
He was so beautiful inside and out.
Thank you for this, even now, it remains just as sharp, painful & so heartbreakingly sad.
I thought Demri died of myocarditis (inflammation of the lining of the heart, often seen in IV drug users). I always thought it was extremely eerie whenever I came across Mike Starr talking about the last time he saw Layne, in particular Layne telling Mike that he had seen Demri in his condo the night before & that he didn't care what Mike might think, Layne was insistent. Beautifully creepy
I believe what he said.. Even though they had broken up, I believe that they loved each other very much and I hope they're together now.
It was heart complications because she didn't stop using. She had to have a valve replaced and it failed
No one can sound good as layne so you can try to replace him but never will happen layne way to unreal unique
Subs are going up! Great job man 👍
You're getting too good for youtube man.
Says you!
@@menotyou4678 ????
Great job man
To be clear, he didn’t weight 80 something pounds because of the drugs. He weighed so little because he decomposed in his apartment for 2 weeks before they found him. He was really just a skeleton. People who had seen him just before his death said he was skinny, but not that damn skinny. I’d guess probably around 130-140 lbs.
Yeah I was about to say. Looking at how bad UFC fighters like Max Holloway or Conor McGregor at featherweight (145lb) on the scale, there's no way Layne would've been 80lb.
People said he was about 100 pounds at most so no. He really was skinny fron not eating. You ever seen a crack head or meth head up close. The really bad ones look like they just escaped Auschwitz. He was a crackhead through and through he also covered in oozing infections as well.
@Daniel, hey I just wanted to say thank you so much. I’m 28 an have been listening to Alice In Chains since I was 10yrs old which was givin to me from my dad. But my point is you have given me and everyone else such comfort especially finding out the small details which are my FAVORITE but if you could find his closest friends and find out their stories with him would be more than amazing like it just means so much to me to find out everything about Layne. He’s older but he’s like my older brother and I’m the oldest of 3 so that feeling is great but please I’m begging you Daniel it would be the best, and what happened to the book Layne was talking about on Rockline that he was writing for 5 years??? I’d kill for that book. But thanks again you’re the best
I read somewhere that Layne's mom threw away the manuscript when she was cleaning the apartment after Layne died, but I am not sure if that is true...
Great vid!
As much as Will has great vocals skills he ain't Layne i can't hear the old songs that ain't sung by Layne
Nobody of them can get close to Cornell
@@IrespectUtoo nobody compared vocals skills. Definitely Chris had a wide range at the high notes but couldn't sing at really low key. Layne had it in both sides. Plus Layne had a different feel than Chris which i like it more. No need to compare at all
@@LAYENSTANLEY lol he couldn't song in low key?are you joken me?
@@IrespectUtoo he couldn't sing at really low key bass range. It's just not in his vocal
@@IrespectUtoo Chris vocals range was like a female vocalist
My heart goes out to Nancy. My your son find peace in afterlife
Are you making a doc on grunge? That would be cool
Excellent video
Great video / interview ....Lane , Weiland , Cornell etc etc ....wow.
It really was heartbreaking to hear that Layne was gone, but anyone who was a real fan wasn't really shocked to hear about it I mean it was a question of when as to if Layne Thomas Staley rest in PARADISE
Heart wrenching to know that he died alone. Rip o Layne and Mike. I lived in Seattle and those were the darkest years for me.
Most addicts do....
:(
Layne loved his speed balls... Which are very dangerous. He obviously didn't worry about it. It only takes that one time to kill you.
Yea, I tried living in Seattle, but it was not for me and I don’t miss it..
Good video 👍🏻
Absolutely a great!! His range , talent , boundless possibilities, I understand addiction all to well , over 15 years free from the demon , not everyone can best their demons but that doesn't mean they are weak , so sad he couldn't be saved .
This is so sad. My heart is so broken. Layne's music keeps me going cause I have Lupus and I try to dance🤣 to the music. I just want somebody to stop talking about his addiction. That's not Layne. We as fans will always keep him ALIVE ❤️❤️
Keep it up amazing content, if anyone was to make a Kurt Cobain movie I would hope it would be you . Integrity, respect, and truthful. Much appreciated!
This is so sad 😞 😥 R.I.P Layne you are so truly missed and I'm so sorry how you passed and alone .we have lost so many legend R.I.P Layne, Kurt ,Scott, Chris and Chester just to name a few legends!!90s Grunge Rock lives on through your memories and your music forever!!!AIC forever!!🤘🔥🎸🎶❤😢🤗
His Mother saw her son after being dead for 2 weeks. Oh Dear.
The grunge era bands from Seattle took a huge hit as far as losing people early
This is such a good video. Seeing the area Layne lived in makes me so sad. It's industrial and unfriendly feeling. I couldn't live some place like that. And someone with mental health issues and depression like Layne shouldn't have lived there. I need grass and trees. Birds and flowers. To see God's hands in all creation. Concrete and empty spaces make me sad. Poor Layne. He really struggled.
I pray he's with our Heavenly Father now at peace and smiling. 🙏💞
I agree. Not a pleasant view...a few trees and bushes and all parking lots. I believe I read somewhere that it was the location he wanted in order to get drugs easily.
He picked the location because it was close to what he needed most
I listen to some of the new alice music and cant help thinking that Jerry has really written some great music. I mean a lot of the new songs are just as good or better than anything on facelift or dirt. William does ok but I just cant help thinking how GOOD these songs would have been with Layne. They would have been iconic.
Your absolutely right....it's a damn shame actually every time I listen to AIC since he died I can't stop thinking how much better it would be with layne still can't believe he's gone...
I just recently started learning about his life. I was confused about how he was so thin cause he had money. People with money doing heroin will still eat, the reason a lot of addicts look so skinny is because they choose to use what money they have on dope and if they have any change left then they'll eat. This is the first time hearing that he was doing speedballs at the end which completely makes sense then as to why he was so frail. Good coverage, a lot of other videos didn't mention that
Really, opiates always make me vomit heaps from one or two bites of food. I always assumed this was common and why opiate addicts are so thin usually, famous or not
I appreciate you doing this. Thanank you so much laynes mom lives very. Lost to me. I believe if he never died he would have changed rock
His unit was on the other side, that back unit has vaulted ceiling’s.
Love it!! Love it!!! ❤️😍😍
why dude. there's so much more to rememberer him for
He’s just informing people who are curious
AIC Facelift & Dirt were a huge influence on me. Getting to see them in 92 was incredible ! I prefer to remember that instead of how Layne & Mike Start died. Hope they found the peace they missed RIP ☮️
That must have been amazing to see in person.
Rock in peace brother Layne
Great voice & I miss him
This is the only place I have heard his rehab talked about
Good rockumentary. One correction, though. Demri passed from an infection that did stem from her drug use, but not from an overdose.
Music industry will take, rape, and kill the amazing God given talent like lLayne and then tell us how sorry they are about their death! Record labels will watch them die slowly and after they die profit off of it!
God Bless you Layne. We miss you so very much. 💔🙏
I bought facelift when I was in the 8th grade I'm 47 now I've loved AC the day I put that CD in so sorry you had to fade away like that you will live on in the music layne thankyou.
I can't even imagine what 86lbs and 6 feet tall would look like. I think his body would have looked like a Holocaust survivor around the time of his death.
Could you film the place where AiC practiced..in the late 80s music bank it was called i believe something likre that
It was a hard loss to the mother.Nancy.and she did try many times to contact her son.but she was up against a music industry.they dont stop to help the addict.they feed the addiction. Nancy friends were waiting to encourage. And help in whatever way they could.Nancy now for decades have been helping the musician that's a addict. And giving them that way to get out under the addiction. From us that new her in Haines alaskaGod be with her and her family.it takes alot of strength.and courage.to do.what shes been doing.love for your childern.🙏💐💜
Damn Great video.😞 Layne We love you and Miss your Music RIP BNKtRMFer❤️🤙🏼
At 4:22 Layne's condo is on the top left side. Each floor has 2 condos.
It sucks because its a catch 22, because the pain gives us this great music..
rip layne miss u song man
The mom said that the music industry never allowed Layne the time necessary to do what he needed to do for recovety. In all due respect, the whole band went on hiatus after Layne's overdosel in Kansas City. Obviously, rrcovering from Heroin is very difficult. All rrvonery is. The person has to torally want to get off the substance, more than anything else. Layne was the best singer. I loved him. I pray he is at peace now.
Rest Peacefully Layne
Can’t believe he literally died the same day as Kurt
Say NO To Drugs.
The producer for Black gives way to blue talks about how they had to take emotional breaks during the recording of that. If they had the producer from first Korn album (Specifically the Track: Daddy) He would have locked them in the studio and forced the emotion into the song
Seattle would be cursed but at the same time, it's just full of gifts.
Chris, Kurt, Layne,Andy Wood
Seattle was once great city and is still cool but it lost something once the struggling artists left because of the rent. It has the feel of a hot chick who's slept with a few too many guys
Its an overpriced cesspool now
It is cursed
Back in the 80's and 90's were the best times to live in Seattle.
Seattle seems depressing and stigmatic
RIP Layne Also RIP Mark Lanegan 😥 ❤️
