Layne Staley from Alice in Chains best screams

These are some of my favorite moments studio and live from layne's incredible voice performance

[@mcdanielclintster]

I'm 52 & have been listening to Layne since before they went mainstream & his voice still gives me the chills today. I cant listen to 'nutshell' on unplugged without tearing up. R.I.P Layne. ❤

[@bblade77]

You can’t replace that voice….

[@SludgeMan90]

Of course you can. William DuVall is so much better; it doesn't come close.

@@SludgeMan90 The voices in your head are wrong dude.

[@lauramalmquist1242]

Good Lord. There was and is no one who can touch Layne and his vocals. The power that radiates even through recordings .... seeing him live must have just been shockwaves. Still cry listening to his voice.

[@MrZugga]

Bleed the Freak at the Moore. impossible to top.

[@connormatthews522]

bro the moore is like the mecca of grunge imo, think of the people that have been through that place, tragic that it's not the same as it was back then

[@billgabert3944]

Such a legend, he was so awesome

[@jesperaverycuyugan4488]

Damn Layne took it up a notch on that last scream in the man in box chorus. Man this guys is legend. It's hard to find another guy who can sing like this.

[@phewiss3066]

0:17 god just those 2 notes... greatest rock vocalist to ever live

[@kylestag4368]

its crazy how his singing by far surpasses Cantrell s playing. the vocals really give the music the feel and power it needed. great band. .there will never be another Alice in Chains which is depressing...

[@axelmvjansson]

I completely agree with you, over 30 years and i haven’t heard any band with the same music as AIC

[@grungegazealtmetal]

Nah Cantrell's playing makes the band more than Layne's voice. Cantell isn't just a guitar player either. He's also always been the primary songwriter and lyric writer as well as his contribution to the vocals.

[@kylestag4368]

thats all true, but those early albums Facelift. Dirt and 3 legged dog, would not have been half as good with a different vocalist. Lane brought a power and energy to the table that really is unmatched in todays music, I used to be in a AIC cover band playing all Cantrels leads/riffs, without a good vocalist, musically the songs were boring. our vocalist was good but he wasnt Lane didnt have the presence, I dont believe Alice in Chains would have been successful without him in the beginning,

[@grungegazealtmetal]

@@kylestag4368 I think you're just downplaying how great of a guitar player Jerry Cantrell is and I don't think his playing is boring at all. It's incredibly tasteful. He doesn't waste a note, his solos service the songs, his tone is magnificent, a brilliant rhythm player and he's as great of a riff lord as Tony Iommi imo. I do agree about how phenomenal of a vocalist Layne is. AIC wouldn't be where they were in the 90s without Layne, but they wouldn't be where they were without Jerry either. Jerry gives them a distinct sound. Layne is my #2 of all time behind Chris Cornell, but if Jerry had passed away instead of Layne, Alice In Chains would have ended altogether. There can be an AIC without Layne (not as great obviously), but there could never be AIC without Jerry.

[@grungegazealtmetal]

@@kylestag4368 you can even hear the Alice In Chains signature sound in Jerry's 3 solo records and for the soundtracks he's done.

[@DeElSendero]

Excellent! An absolutely incredible vocalist! I've been looking for a compilation like this for a while. Great job with it Axel! Thank you!

[@axelmvjansson]

Thank you for the kind words Mr. :D

[@Cas_anova]

Oh Layne..

[@maideninchains8988]

You did a great job on this

[@axelmvjansson]

thanks man 😎

[@christopherwenner-uq4jk]

Excellent composition. Great work

[@jamesibz]

This is awfully sad when you see how he was proper into it before the heroin . Hitting those notes and enjoying himself with flesh on him . Then turned into a tiny stick trying to prop himself up with a microphone stand can’t be bothered to sing at all

[@axelmvjansson]

It’s crazy what addiction can cause

[@tonyrobles2696]

Woauuu ❤LOVE Layne❤❤❤

[@matthewryan1185]

Legend, one of the greatest singers ever!! 🎤 🎶

[@dreamsister6339]

Oh my god he looks so fine at 0:40

[@TinaMcMahan-mh1ow]

Layne's Voice is the G.O.A.T!!!!

[@missumenimsatanass]

Anybody heard that Ken Criswell guy singing Alice in chains songs? I was absolutely blown away when I heard his voice. He's better then the guy they have now and he's pretty awesome. Think they said he was a singer in a metal band in Kentucky but not positive. RIP LAYNE you are missed brother.

[@elianecampos2677]

Lane Stanley era simplesmente demais ❤ Não entendo pq gênios morrem tão cedo Mas ficarão de na nossas mentes.

I came here for this. I am trying to find out where to find the full video this came from.. That little reach he does during that is the first time I've ever heard him do that and it is amazing

[@lindaloefflad4116]

Nobody can compare to Layne. Nobody.

[@markthomas2436]

That guy had some serious pipes.

[@CHA5E213]

dude yes OOOOOWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE 💪🔥💯

[@JohnDoeEagle1]

Layne Staley was a Leo on the last day of being one (August 22nd). That explains a lot of it and his remarkable talent and very powerful singing voice. Another Leo (August 13th)....I recognized the power right away when I first him and AIC in 1990.

[@axelmvjansson]

too see AIC live was probaly an amazing time

[@joelcaslo]

También soy del 22 de Agosto. No sabía ese dato. Como Layne no habrá dos

[@tonyaspencer215]

I cannot believe I am in love with a man who has been dead for 22 years.

Same!

[@tonyaspencer215]

Girl, I wish he had a grave somewhere.

[@tabularasa7775]

What song was the first scream from ? That guitar riff is addicting

[@axelmvjansson]

Thats Bleed The Freak live at Moore

Jerry Cantrell writes all their awesome songs but he takes a backseat to Layne and even schemed just to get Layne into the band.

[@anonomous7936]

Yeahhhhhh

[@martin-pz6ds]

[@axelmvjansson]

I think that is live in Tilburg Netherlands in 1991. I found it on youtube
