Memoir Of Mark Lanegan

I finished reading this book about a month ago. I’m glad I read it, especially since today I learned that Mark Lanegan passed away. In the book, Mark details his life from the perspective of his alcohol and drug fueled life. Chasing the high, what great lengths an addict will go to find his next high. He also details his ongoing unhappiness with the Screaming Trees as well as touring and spending time with some of the best bands of the 90’s. Good read…
