He co-founded Screaming Trees in 1985 alongside the Conner brothers (Gary Lee and Van), with the band becoming a defining act of the late-1980s and 1990s American alternative rock scene. After Screaming Trees dissolved in 2000, he focused on his solo career and extensive collaborative work, including contributions to Queens of the Stone Age (notably on Songs for the Deaf, 2002), the Gutter Twins (his duo with Greg Dulli of Afghan Whigs), and his Mark Lanegan Band catalog. He died at his home in Killarney, Ireland on February 22, 2022 at age 57. He was open about his decades-long heroin addiction and recovery, documented in his 2020 memoir Sing Backwards and Weep.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSound and style\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMark Lanegan's sound combines alternative rock, grunge, indie folk, blues rock, post-grunge, electronic rock, and singer-songwriter with his distinctive deep baritone vocal delivery, atmospheric production approaches, and lyrical content addressing addiction, mortality, and personal experience drawing on blues, folk, and country traditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDiscography highlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Winding Sheet (1990, Sub Pop)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhiskey for the Holy Ghost (1994, Sub Pop)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScraps at Midnight (1998, Sub Pop)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'll Take Care of You (1999, Sub Pop)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eField Songs (2001, Sub Pop)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBubblegum (2004, Beggars Banquet)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHawk (2010, 4AD) - with Isobel Campbell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlues Funeral (2012, 4AD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhantom Radio (2014, Heavenly\/Vagrant)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGargoyle (2017, Heavenly)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight Songs of Sorrow (2020, Heavenly)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFor collectors\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSub Pop, Beggars Banquet, 4AD, and Heavenly pressings of the Mark Lanegan catalog have been issued in multiple color variant editions and limited deluxe pressings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere to start\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eListeners new to Mark Lanegan typically start with Bubblegum (2004) or Whiskey for the Holy Ghost (1994). \u003cspan class=\"related-collections\"\u003eExplore more: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/classic-rock-vinyl-records\"\u003eClassic Rock\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/folk-vinyl-records\"\u003eFolk \u0026amp; Indie Folk\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"mark-lanegan-straight-songs-of-sorrow-vinyl","title":"Straight Songs of Sorrow 2LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen considering any great work of art, be it a painting, a novel, or a piece of music, it’s natural to wonder what might have inspired it: ‘the story behind the song’.
