In fact, neither he nor his band had played music for more than two years when they finally did an MTV performance in 1996. Despite his long stint in rehab, Staley remained addicted to heroin. When he did, the band took a break from playing music. In fact, Staley had gone into rehab for a long-standing heroin addiction in 1994.
Much of this was probably done to protect him and his family, as he spent many of those years locked away in isolation. The thing causing so much frustration for many of Staley’s fans is that photos of his later life have never been publicly released. Granted, it wasn’t quite as popular in 2002 to capture every aspect of a person’s life and post it to social media as it is today but it was still quite prevalent. One of the things that has plagued his fans for years is the fact that there aren’t that many photos of Staley that have been released publicly, even in the age where practically every aspect of a person’s life is documented through social media. Staley died in 2002 just months after his child was born. Unfortunately, he was also plagued by a lifetime of crippling depression that eventually led to heroin abuse. He was active with the band from the time that they did their first album up until 1996.
Anyone who spends even a small amount of time listening to rock music should be familiar with Layne Staley, the frontman or the group Alice in Chains.
