Singer Layne Staley died of a drug overdose in 2002. by Gil Kaufman 3/9/2011. The death on Tuesday of former Alice in Chains bassist Mike Starr continued the tragic legacy of one of the most beloved bands to emerge out of the early 1990s grunge scene in Seattle.
Alice in Chains was the first of grungeâs big four to break out, but Nirvana clearly won the to-the-death competition. Kurt Cobain short-circuited death by heroin with a shotgun blast to the head in 1994. It took Layne Staley, Alice in Chainsâ lead singer, a while longer to kill himself with a speedball. One of the many drenched-in-drug moments revealed in David de Solaâs new book, âAlice in Chains: The Untold Story,â has Cobain and Staley striking a deal while the bands were on tour in Rio de Janeiro.
