Alice in chains

Alice in Chains were a band who wrote music about drug addiction hence the name, rather than alice being in wonderland their name blatantly reffers to the misery of drug addiction. Their beautiful and melodic music acts as a vehicle for them to express their emotions regarding esp. layne staley's 15 year struggle with multiple substance addiction, family breakdown and disfunction. they portray this so well that people many people who listen to them are in danger of becoming depressed merely by listening. In my opinion their work is as valuable as the most important literature and poetry of the 20th century.
