14 books173 followers
Mark Lanegan (born November 25, 1964 in Ellensburg, Washington) was an American rock musician and songwriter. Lanegan began his music career in the 1980s. In 1985, he became the vocalist for grunge group Screaming Trees; the group broke up in 2000. Lanegan would start a low-key solo career, but in 2004 Lanegan released his big breakthrough album Bubblegum. In addition to leading the The Gutter Twins, Lanegan has also been involved in other musical projects, including hard rock band Queens of the Stone Age, longterm collaborations with Isobel Campbell; and undertaken some surprisingly eclectic collaborations, such as co-writing and providing vocals for "Black River" by the electronic outfit, Bomb the Bass. He also lent his vocal talent to the highly regarded album, "Above", by supergroup Mad Season.

I love having these poems of Lanegan’s. The poem about Terry Graham is full of vitriol and has stuck with me. Sad there will be no more books.

“It’s just as well that I am stranded
In a foreign country, overstayed, my legal
welcome, head down, hiding out
and unable to leave for not being
allowed to get back in
It’s always the same story with guys like me
always pulling some shady
underhanded bullshit
always driving Sideways In Reverse.”

3.5. By far the best of the three. The first few Mark poems are some of his best. Wesley’s we’re a miss for me this time around (he had some gems in Plague Poems though.)
