agreed. Couldn't put it down.

Man this guys solo work is so good. Bubblegum and Blues Funeral are some of my all time favorite albums.

Same here Dylan, he always killed it when he took the mic on those early QOTSA albums. Heard Buzz Factory a long time ago but don't really remember it, and that's the extent of my Screaming Trees listening. I should absolutely make some time for them

This is a gut punch. Everything he did was quality. Mark’s first two solo albums got me through some tough times. If you don’t own them, get ‘em now and listen. They’re amazing.

Thanks for the music, sir.

'RIP big time

I don't actually know much (anything?) about his work outside of QOTSA tbh (should probably rectify that), but SFTD has absolutely been one of the most important albums of my lifetime

His solo stuff and Screaming Trees are worth checking out.
That Mad Season album is incredible too though he’s only on a few songs.

Man this sucks ass. Was just listening to 'Blues Funeral' and the 'Field Songs' album, days before passed away. R.I.P.

Those albums are still very overlooked, imo. If you haven't, go check them out.

Mark Lanegan whole discography is overlooked. In my opinion, He has the best solo career, from all those big names that came from Seattle in early 90s.

I put him on par with Nick Cave as my favorite songwriters in the last 25 years.

He was a better singer than songwriter…but his writing was still damn consistent all the same
