Just had the most epic conversation with @marklanegan for ‘Come To Where I’m From’ honestly I can’t begin to break it down. Except to say it was beyond what I could have expected. Loved Mark for a long time. Respect him deeply and all of that has just blossomed beyond measure. Feel blessed as fuck to be honest. Absolutely buzzing from it. We talked for well over two hours and laughed for a fair bit of that as we walked through some dark neighborhoods. I can’t wait for you hear it.

I had the supreme honor of tattooing the skull on his left arm back in 2002 just days after Laynes funeral, one of the high points of my career. His music was the soundtrack to my adult life. One of the all time Greats. RIP Mark
That’s really cool..
Was just going to ask was it in memory of Layne and was it the Elvis skull ? ..what an honor
That's such a awesome experience you had
Never stop exhibiting your talent. That is quite an honor.
Any idea if it was the same skull as the one Layne had on his arm? Damn that's the coolest shit ever though @Shannon LaBaw! God like
Edit: my bad. Some dude asked the same thing!
This is exactly what i needed tonight. To see Mark chillin, telling old stories and fooling around with a friend, having the best of his time. I love to see him laugh. Can't believe he's no longer with us.
Totally. It's really sad and it shocked me. 57 is much too young to die. He wasn't even old enough to retire! That really truly sucks 😔
Ben detto Teo... da lacrime!
Fucking sucks,he died!!!!
God I miss him already

This is sadly now the definitive Mark Lanegan interview. I'm so sad but grateful for it now. R.I.P. Mark
Life sucks everyone is dead
@@peoplearedumbnow3886 life is good obviously, and there are tons of incredible artists in the world. it's sad we lost Mark, but that's just part of life. life doesn't suck just because death or tragedy exist lol... it sucks to suffer in the moment i guess, but without suffering we wouldn't have any Mark Lanegans or Kurt Cobains, and the list goes on forever. life is suffering. what really "sucks" is missing the point in life and having a bullshit pessimistic attitude when you live in the most mind blowing, crazy, incredible, easy times full of comforts and conveniences designed just for your enjoyment. your using a device that can teach you literally anything, and your idea is to say life sucks. SNAP OUT OF IT. DON'T ABUSE OPIATES, OR ANY SUBSTANCE (except weed maybe). DRINK WATER AND GET SUNSHINE, YOU'LL BE FINE. OR MAYBE NOT, BUT STILL - LIFE DOESN'T SUCK.
@@420dopethrone Nope, still sucks.
@@peoplearedumbnow3886 negativity!!!!!!!! wooooh!!!! that is super cool
@@420dopethrone Don't shoot the messenger.
Only thing better than “Sing Backwards and Weep”, is having Lanegan narrate the audible version. Legendary.
Yea I just finished it,
I’ve read the book, does anyone have the link for his narration?
I listened to excerpts from that book then came to listen to this. That book is really heavy kinda sadening to hear about this crazy touring years of the 90's.
hell yes!
I will be buying that after having now read the book.
After reading "Sing Backwards and Weep" seeing Lanegan laugh is rare treat.
A
Ive always been a pearl jam fan but the past 2 years I’ve been diving more and more into the grunge scene. Absolutely obsessed by Layne Staley. And very into Chris Cornell and Andy Wood. Also Chester bennington and Kurt interest me deeply. As you can see, the intelligent, spiritual, troubled great minds intrigue me. I’m slowly spreading my horizon. Haven’t really had much experience and attention to screaming trees yet. Would you recommend this book? Think I’ll buy it for Christmas as a gift to myself. What would you say about the book?
@@ryano460 Chester Bennington doesn’t have anything to do with the others you’ve mentioned. I’ve read a lot of music autobiographies. Lanegan’s is particularly horrific. The period covered isn’t that much about music, really.
Amen to that! I've been following this fella since early Screaming Trees, seen him live a few times, and had no idea ... So, yeah, this is nice to see.
@@ryano460 I am reading it these days and I can say it´s quite dark, but I would definitely recommend it!
Mark- I am an addicted (recoved), combat veteran, crazy, and above all father who has been blessed by your music/you for a lot of years now. This interview has shown me my hero is as real as I am. I've been on the streets with nothing but headphones and a smile from your haunting voice. You have directly effected my life in such a positive way that I've made it through, at times, the impossible. The scars of your voice have helped me through the scars left in my mind. My only prayer is for peace and I'll do the same for you. Thank you for being as solid and real as they come. Because of you beauty is no longer waisted on me.
can i ask where you live?
that's beautiful...
I think if he met you he’d admire you even more than you admire him,he should at least
Because you deserve as much if not more praise
Thankyou for sharing your scars and your heart . I think. I Like Mark more now..
"Aesthetic Intimacy.." sharing what is beautiful!
I am devastated. Rest in Peace, Mark. You meant a lot to me
Mark started a new way to write. The flashbacks inside the flashbacks are amazing. So well done. I miss you, Mark.
This interview is possibly the only real insight into what it might be like to hang out with Mark Lanegan. It's the only interview where he seems relaxed and comfortable enough to laugh and bullshit with a friend. Now that he's gone this is the best memory we have, at least that I know of, to show what he was really like. He seemed like a very likeable guy.
Thanks Joseph Arthur
It’s so great to see Mark laughing and smiling so much. This was such a great interview, I’m still crushed over the loss of Mr. Mark Lanegan. Rest In Peace, Dark Mark. 💔
" I'm a breakfast cook who's been singing a while." So humble and laid back...gotta love the guy. RIP Mr. Lanegan. A survivor, that's for damned sure. He was the rock star who was a sure bet for the 27 club. Made an extra 30 years count. Bravo!
No words. Nobody has ever taken Dark Mark so out of his shell. It was a great interview. 👍
Time to rewatch this once again. RIP Mark, what a guy.
This is simply the best Lanegan interview, a dream for every fan of the man but also of the era he represents. And, so affectionate. Thank you so much for this, hopes it get the attention it deserves.
I'll credit Joseph with part of that. He's a chill interviewer. It's just a couple cool guys hanging out, and not like an interview at all. It gives Mark a chance to open up so much more.
Proof that there's something wrong with the American music scene is the fact that Mark Lanegan isn't more famous.
Not only "not famous", but can't even draw up a decent fucking US tour. Unbelievable.
@@bforty79 I just sern him at the Stone Pony. It was a pretty decent crowd and he was so gracious to sign autographs. Sadly, it wasn't the size he certainly deserved. Even in a smaller crowd he 100 percent. A true icon.
There is no american music scene. It's dead, long gone.
Hmm ..however. They say "average taste for mass appeal"..so i think he has a niche that is not that of General public..
He be very Indy!..
Plus he said it himself...he self imploded!..He might be too talented and too much musical integrity(sp) for Americans.
He is liked better in Europe and Israel.
?
He’s isn’t more famous because he doesn’t want to be. He doesn’t tour a whole lot, he doesn’t do a lot of PR or anything, he doesn’t play up his connection to the Seattle music scene, he doesn’t put himself out there like that. He just makes his music, makes his money, and keeps his head down. I think that’s cool as fuck, on par with what Izzy Stradlin‘s done since the 90s.
R.I.P. Mark Lanegan. I just heard the news of his passing. "Sing Backwards and Weep" is an amazing book, and I will forever be grateful for finding it. Truly a wonderful lyricist and singer.
I'm on almost 6 years of being Opiate free. I've been going through all of Mark's music again, which got me through decades of hell. I'm really happy I found this interview, bc I found myself going into dark territory, listening to everything of Mark's, only mentally. So hearing him laughing and having a great time in this interview, was such a God damn relief to hear. I'd only seen him at 3 different times, while heavily on the nod myself, and even though I never got to meet him, I can say he is greatly missed, musics true blue William Burroughs. That is so much for this podcast, really needed it today
Huge respect for your recovery and much love
Keep kicking ass, man. I love sobriety.
Such an amazing comfort zone, thanks for
Inviting me to the party.... such cool people...
A beautiful side of the deep guy was,
unveiled.
Listening to this is like hearing an Old West gunfighter. Mark is a treasure.
Had he lived in the Old West... he would have been a gunfighter.
Perfect description
This is the best interview ever. Thank you Joseph for showing us a side of the legend so many admired but knew so little about. You will be missed Mark. Rest in peace.
In my vinyl collection Mark Lanegan is located between Leonard Cohen and Nick Cave, they are my personal holy trinity of music and this is absolutely where he belongs. His music makes up the biggest part of the soundtrack of my life and therefore I simply love this guy.
Led zeppelin not in your vinyl collection
just missing Tom Waits
@@ghost__chips he‘s there either ;)
@@neverbettercanada led zeppelin would never be found in my record collection. ewww.
Cave and Lanegan yes ...Cohen , no, overrated.
This interview is a real treasure. I feel like you were the only person to bring Mark’s true personality out for the world to see. Mark has always been an enigma even growing up in Seattle and knowing a lot of players there he was completely untouchable. Thanks for that and RIP Mark & Van. ❤
🙏🏼🤍
@@josepharthurofficial i love this interview, Mark really seems to enjoy your company, and lets his gaurd down sonewhat. Truly enjoyable to watch. Thank you brother.
@josepharthurofficial any chance at you getting back to interviewing famous musicians? You do a really great interview brother!
RIP
What a talent.. most obscure vocal of the 90s Seattle era.. highly underrated.. which he probably didn’t mind
RIP Mark Lanegan ♥️ This is easily the best interview done with Mark. You can tell he's very comfortable and at ease which he usually is not 😂 He's in his own natural element with another highly talented musician and is actually asked great questions and having a fun conversation. More interviews need to be done in this manner. You learn so much more and see the real side of their usually gaurded and reserved personalities which is an absolute shame. Great job!
Agree. I was also really laughing along with them - like having a good night with good friends. At the same time they cover Mark's homelessness, take on religion and a lot more - and you feel there's some real honesty there.
After listening to Lanegan’s narration of Sing Backwards and Weep, I appreciate this interview so much more.
I stayed up past my bedtime to listen to the whole fascinating thing, and I'm glad I did. Revealing and mind-blowing insights into Mark Lanegan, legend from the early 90's Seattle scene, and along with Chris Cornell and Layne Staley, one of rock's greatest singing voices. Considering his legendary vox, you'll be stunned by the shocking ups and downs of Lanegan's mid-90s career and journey since Screaming Trees.
Other musicians should learn from Lanegan's humble and modest responses to Joseph Arthur's easy-going, flattering, yet still substantive interview approach. Arthur, himself a criminally underappreciated singer-songwriter in the alternative music genre, doesn't shy away from discussing the challenges confronting recording artists today while they pursue their careers on music industry's fringes...even those possessed with gifts comparable to Lanegan's one-of-a-kind voice. And Lanegan's answers are a reality check for what younger professional musicians should expect later into their careers. Watch this podcast and glimpse how one great singer (and Seattle-sound survivor) tames ego and the excesses born from his talent with an unrelenting self-honesty -- its riveting.
lol, quarter way tru & must abide by my bedtime. to be continued. is fascinating
Do you write reviews professionally? Pretty good summary review there bonefish
@@nylontusk1289 Thank you for the compliment, Kaelum.
Though not a professional media reviewer, critic, or music journalist, I am a songwriter and musician with a formal education and work experience that emphasized expository writing skills.
As a fan of Mark Lanegan's work, both solo and with the 'Trees, and Joseph Arthur's songwriting/recording career since the early 'naughts, I felt obligated to draw attention to this particular video podcast. The significance of Lanegan as interview subject, and Arthur, as interviewer, might be lost on casual viewers and younger fans who missed the heyday of Seattle's alternative music scene and the artists who emerged from it.
Imagine if Kurt or Layne was a guest as well in their 50s
I know...I have imagined that before
what stories , Ilove hearing the stoies from all my fav bands, those were some crazy fucking times
It’s crazy that those guys were 2 of Mark’s closest friends
It makes me happy to see him healthy and show less restraint than he usually does in interviews. I guess him being in his own home helps but it is nice to see his human side. Definitely the most captivating episode of this podcast by far.
He lives in Ireland right? I hope I bump into him one day as I'm Irish.
Not sure what you mean by that. He's been restrained in interviews for at least a decade. But I think since he had just finished the book after a couple recent record releases, he was doing much better financially than he normally was throughout his life. I so wish he could have given the world another decade 😢
This is the best document I’ve seen that captures Lanegan at ease, at peace and talking candidly . Thanks J.Arthur for recording this. It’s vital.
Yes. I've watched it at least 5 times. Just seeing Mark joking, laughing... this is fuckin gold.
that is a beautiful thought to know he found peace and had a reason to laugh
I meet Mark, he was very intense... 1991 in eastern Washington my band opened for the Trees at the fair grounds, went back before the show and said (I’m a big fan- it’s great to play with you guys) he snarled at me and looked away.. I walked out.....
Meet Chris Cornell in 89/90 in walla walla. He was also intense, but very nice and asked me questions about the locals. I feel fortunate now. In this interview it was nice to see the human in Mark.
Well he definitely opened up over the years i think.
I met him at shows between 2012 and 2017 and he was always very friendly.
Great voice. Full stop. He doesn't have a band of brothers around him for a reason. My guess is that he's a raging narcissist. He was a rude egotistical asshole in '94 when I met him. I do love his voice, but he doesn't impress me as a person. It's laughable to hear him judge anyone given his track record. If it weren't for his addiction Screaming Trees might have really taken off. The band was amazing!
@Skip Mickmack your entitled to your opinion but why are u listening 2 a podcast with Mark lanagen if u hate grunge&would rather listen to Brett Michael's or nikki sixx (I also like listening 2 Nikki,he does amazing podcasts)...💜🤔
@Skip Mickmack thus why most are dead from the grunge era...the whole 90s took a turn to the dark after the light 80s ..the grunge and gangster rap were symbols
The book is devastating and great. That Mark's still alive to laugh is the happiest of endings. Happy for him.
God this man is incredible. Such self awareness but not a hint of pompousness, no over inflated ego...the epitome of an under appreciated artist. He's really lived through it all- Kurt, Layne...he just discusses them so calmly as if he was just a friend/fan, which he was, and they loved him too. He doesn't bring them up unless prodded though, which proves it's not just for clout. His authenticity is fucking solid. I love Josh Homme for realising his greatness. Wish he was still here
His ego was tortured and shaved off years ago
In his book he was an ego maniac
Just a LEGEND, such a humble guy. He's just been personally connected to many eternal tragedies yet still moves forward. When he says he's not "deep", it's because if you go below and think about the nightmarish past all the time, you'll lose your shyte.
That memoir book of marks was unbelievable. How he made it out is unbelievable. From start to finish It was hard to put it down.
Just hearing him roar with laughter like this immediately makes me feel better.
I think this is one of the best podcasts I’ve ever watched, something about both of them is mesmerizing
you're right. Something about it is comforting. Mark seems to be doing well. Always liked him and found him enigmatic. Very intelligent, self effacing dude.
@@rsohlich1 Humility is such an underrated thing, i just like listening to any humble person.....
Turns out a most poetic and visionary human is also the most chill and down to earth. Rest in paradise, power, peace, all that good stuff Mark Lanegan. Your loss is a gaping, sad loss in music and more recently, literature, and art and humanity in general. Your recent books are really fucking amazing. Ugh. Didn't get enough of this guy.
I saw the snippet where he was talking about Chris Cornell and Layne Staley and wanted to watch the whole thing, and. Glad I did. For those who don’t know Mark’s music you should pick it up because he’s been in some more high profile projects (Screaming Trees , Queens of the Stone Age, and Mad Season) but also some other projects that aren’t like any of those and it is really good. This dude has seen some shit and has great stories. 🤘🤘🤘
What luck and honor that it was recorded, I am very grateful.
Mark is a legend... such a rich library of work. Love this guy
Listening to Mark puts me into a meditative state of mind. So chill yet so intelligent. RIP Mark
I swear i never knew Mark could even smile lol. Nice to see n hear him laughing here!!
Makes me think of Methamphetamine Blues. See MLB live,he comes out and signs afte and he’s way more friendly than I expected
Well, he is clean now, which helps.
Mark Lanegan's laughter is a treasure
It's very heartwarming to hear so many laughs coming out of Mark so close to ultimately what was his end. Well done Joseph, I'm sure you and many, many of us are so glad you captured this..
I haven’t even watched this yet - but honestly, THANK YOU in advance. Feels to me the spirit of this amazing part of music history is still being kept alive. RIP LAYNE, CHRIS & KURT.
wow this has got to be the most captivating Lanegan interview I've ever seen! He's so comfortable around you Joseph. Eternal thanks for this! Can't wait for the memoir and new album from Mark!
I just finished reading 'Sing Backwards and Weep'. Fantastic, but harrowing. This is by a thousand miles the best interview I've seen with Lanegan. Great job.
bravo joseph, this is not only the best lanegan interview i've ever come across but i'd say one of the best i've heard/seen period. 🌹
Two of my very favorites...thank you for this podcast. Second time watching and I love it. So special to have it now that Mark's gone. To Joseph: I've seen you twice in San Francisco. I discovered Mark just a few years ago and never got to see him live. I love many songs by each of you. Thank you.
What a great relaxed interview. What a talent Mark is but such a totally closed book. Shown a side I never seen (the side he keeps hidden for his friends etc) warm funny and engaging. If you seen any other ML interviews you see he clams up. So credit to Joe for putting the great man at ease!
Joseph's speaking voice and Mark's singing voice.... fuckin hell. Liquid velvet. Beautiful podcast, thanks.
I saw mark lanegan in concert last year and it was one of the best concerts I’ve ever seen. I can’t wait to see him again
Hands down, one of the funniest and insightful interviews I've ever heard. Wonderful.
Seeing again today. Maybe my 10th time. What a great interview. Love the two. Now that "Singing Backwards and Weep" starts to be considered here and there the book of the year -- very well deserved -- it's absolutely great to see so much empathy between two great creators and human beings. Love Joseph Arthur and Mark Lanegan. Both. Always a source of inspiration to see this talks.
Mark has helped me through the most difficult years in my life. I don’t know him but I genuinely love and thank this guy for his music.
In 91 my friends didnt understand my love for the Screaming Trees, the early SST albums but Uncle Anesthesia was my gate to Mark Lanegan, his solo albums soon followed. Thank you for revealing more of who contributed much to my lifes soundtrack. Its good to see him get much credit as one of the greatest, he humbly is and I hope to see him live as I never have, solo or with bands, many blessings and much love and thanks to Mark.
If you read his book he talks about how he essentially hates every trees album prior to Sweet Oblivion
Definitely will have to read it, thanks for recommending, and may I add, hate as well as love makes some great music, many blessings.
Happy Birthday Mark, you're missed so much 🖤
A simply brilliant interview with the Great Man, I intend to watch a little more of the channel as you guys have a real laid back style that brings out a little more than what's expected.
I can't wait to read Mark's memoirs......
Joseph, Mark - spasibo!
probably the best interview (not just Mark's but in general) i have seen in a while. so many good laughs, too. thanks again, it's been a real pleasure to watch you talking.
I don’t know about anyone else but these two voices together are very soothing could listen to these two talk all day...
Yes, me too! Love it! 🥰
Absolutely great to hear all these laughters
I could listen to these guys talk for days. What a great chat Joseph, we still love Lanegan up here in the NW.
I hope Mark records an audiobook one day - that voice is like whiskey and honey.
sticksman1979 yes!
He reads his memoir, now available on Audible. It’s great. Classic.
I just finished it! Great book and the narration is perfect.
Yes he is the narrator of his memoir on Audible, I recommend listing to it, so dark and colorful at the same time
Geez, an audiobook of his memoir would keep you wide awake for a week.
Such a marvelous interview. Mark Lanegan is one of my biggest musical inspirations. His personal journey is very touching, told with such unapologetic honesty. It gets you to really believe you can crawl yourself out of the hole you might find yourself in. Class act!
The Man The myth The Legend Mr Mark Lanegan. So underrated as a singer and songwriter. Glad he's alive. His memoir.... amazing.
Joe you captured a diamond 💎 with this.. totally the best mark lanegan interview experience ever!he is terribly underrated and totally every bit as talented as all his peers,and legends of the past!I think mark lanegan perhaps is the greatest lyricist ever! his cover of nutshell has taken on a new meaning equivalent of johnny cash's hurt
Just watched the whole interview and I loved every second of it. Thank you so much for this! ❤
Hey I just had to tell how much I enjoy your work, you are a natural, freaking genius interviewer, but more than that you are like a family member just kicking back, shooting the breeze, making one of my all time favorite musiciians / singers of all time, Mr. Mark Lanegan melt back in his chair with such comfort and familiarity, that we , the audience, get to imagine what Mark is really , really like, and can easily insert ourselves right there in Lanegan's living room and share in the conversation about art, music and creative ways we make our statement in this thing we call life. You asked every question I've ever wanted to ask Mark, never forced, never interrupting him, perfect exchange of give and take. The icing on the cake is Mark's beautiful, soulful and sexy voice and even more sugar is the laughter and the high pitch squeel coming from Mark, his core, authentic laugh, wow!!! what a freaking treasure!! And his face squinting into chinese eye's and a smile from ear to ear. FREAKING PRICELESS. I have watched this full podcast at least 4 times. I could go on and on about my favorite parts, but that would turn into a novel. Thank you Joeseph for inviting me over to Marks house, and introducing me to him. You were warm, thoughtful, extremely funny, spiritualy driven , and very humble. You have so much going for you and I pray that you continue to be very blessed and you bless everyone you come into contact with." Captain obvious says Mark's voice is GODLY. " CLASSIC.
Mark is the wondering minstrel of great and haunting real music. Quite frankly the greatest of his kind...to have lost so many and continue their flame is beautiful Slip away sums it all up...that depth of the harrowed is there for all to hear. Love you man 🖤
thanks a lot for this video Arthur. You asked great questions and really got Mark to open up and relax. It's great to watch. I was lucky enough to witness the great man perform in 2017. What a man, what a voice. RIP Mark
This was fantastic! Been a Lanegan fan for so long and this is the most in depth interview with him I've ever seen. It's been amazing to meet him a few times over the last 20 years and see how he's grown more comfortable and open over time. He's had a fascinating life and I can't wait to read the memoir. Truly one of the greatest of our time and sorely underrated. Always humble to a fault that Mark Lanegan!
Never thought i would come across such a relaxed Mark Lanegan interview, thanks for uploading.
Blues Funeral really got me into his music.
Met him a few times at a signing session after a show, he's always cool and seems to genuinely appreciate the contact with his fans.
R. I. P. Mark.. Just found out came back to Watch this again... Loved it the first time round gutted to not have a chance for any thing new now.. Take care all
Best Mark Lanegan interview. Very funny too. Thank you.
Thank you so so much for this... What an amazing interview, super chill, super funny & super informative!!! So great hearing you all laugh & bro out together. I really needed this right now. Makes me feel so close to Mark at a time of feeling such loss ❤️
Fantastic. Such a beautiful moment.
Thank you.
Lanegan's the real deal. Great interview - best I've heard with him.
Love these guys. All three!!!
Im just learning about Mark and finding myself identifying with a lot of his turbulent past with opiate addiction and art. The more i listen to him the more i like this guy. Wish i had learned more about him back when he was still alive. Its cool they talk about greg dulli cause i loved that afghan wigs song "white trash party" my buddy used to always play this tape i recorded from the radio of a bunch of cool music by the afghan wigs, frank zappa, and some good ol punk rock tunes. Marks music is deep, talented and soulful. Im just getting started with his solo stuff and listening to his drug fueled stories of the grunge scene that i ironically have a friend/connection to. A guy who started a seattle band called francis nash and is a childhood friend of ben shepherd bass player of soundgarden who i got to meet when visiting him on bainbridge island. I had the pleasure to play drums with that guy during a short time living as a snowboard bum in the mountains of montana. I never was a good drummer but i could keep a beat and stay in the pocket long enough to let my extremely talented friend do his magic on guitar and vocals and see all my ski bum buddies flop around in the pit. They were fun times, short moments of pretending we were rock stars. All i can say is go out and do it. Start a band, play music shitty or not and just have fun in the moment. Forget about making it in the music scene its about them moments of being in the pocket, "creating" and having a good time with friends that are important. Im fortunate to have seen all them bands live like nirvanna, janes addiction, primus, sublime, and more. The 90s were great years even though we had no idea then these bands were going to be so big looking back at now. Kids today i see so many nirvanna tshirts its like they are a generation that should of been around back then. When i saw nirvanna in Tijuana mexico in 1991 i had no idea who they were but left that sweaty, bruised and bloody show a fan.
There's a torrent floating around with all his soundboards from 2001-2013. I grabbed it like back in 2018 it's a treasure.
37:35 that moment about the book’s publisher is something I’ll come back for, Mark’s reaction is so genuine. RIP Mark
thank you, this is just an amazing interview, really thank you!
Mark is normally very quiet and reserved in interviews. This was awesome to see the other side of him. Loved that you guys were cracking jokes, and talking about old memories and stories. Great interview!
I am a massive screaming trees/ mark lanagen fan and this was the best interview with him ever.......thanks joseph
This was not only great interview but one of the best interviews ever. Sounds like a bold statement but I never watched interview this long without getting bored at some point. Great interaction and flow. Was lucky enough to see Screaming Trees open for Alice In Chains here in Finland in a small club that has capacity maybe for 500. Seen Lanegan alone few times. Bubblegum is one of my fave albums of all time. Thank you all! Cheers from Finland, Petri
@Justincase008 That was just after AIC released Dirt. R.I.P. Mark
This is so incredible. Brings back memories of meeting Mark in Chicago, talking about our good buddy John Curly from the Whigs. Man, so great, thank you!
Great talk. Lanegan is a legend.
Thanks Joseph that was brilliant! Shared to both our ML FB fan pages!
I just finished listening to "Sing Backwards and Weep" the audiobook. I would say listen to the audiobook, since Mark Lanegan narrates in that incredible voice, his voice. I was stunned by his stories, and just completely horrified at the person he thought of himself to be, rather than the extremely talented singer/songwriter he is. This was a very powerful and intriguing book that I highly recommend. If you have anybody dealing with a substance abuse problem in your life, or you are yourself, this could shed light on the situation and may be helpful to you or your loved one. There are only two ways out of a substance abuse problem, life or death. Thank God he survived!
Too much of an asshole to his bandmates. Loved the audiobook. Insane stories.
Great interview! Thank you. Love Lanegan
Thank you for this. Absolutely amazing interview.
I'll admit it. Never been a Lanegan fan. Known of ST's since the early '90's. Regretfully, I slept on the TREES, wasn't feeling the jam-bandish, Tom Waits/beatniky vibes...Alice & SndGrdn both more my speed/volume...but Ibfinally opened my ears to Marks voice- via MAD SEASON's ABOVE DVD. I understand what 'the buZz' is all abt. FFWD to present day, came across "Sing Backwards & Weep" memoires... no, not the book, but Marks vocal 11hr reading (abt 1/2way thru) on UA-cam... subsequently, I'm on a subtle Lanegan binge.. I was unaware, how ruffneck/rudeboy his life was...now I see... & I relate, & respect entirely. He is BADASS! Loved this P.Cast.
This was an amazing interview. Thanks to all three of you.
Thanks, it was great to watch!
Rest In Peace to this legend Mark Lanegan. He’s back with his best friends Layne and Kurt.
Ive listened to this episode a few times this month. I only started listening to Mark's music after he passed, despite really loving other seattle bands for years. So sad wish I had been introduced to his stuff way earlier. He has an amazing story and just incredibly talented!
This is great interview/discussion. Well done Joseph for doing this. Mark has always been an enigma to me and kudos for talking about his writings and not just music.
Two amazing voices. Joseph’s interview style is warm and amazing. Felt like sitting in listening to two of my favorite artists have a conversation.
Thank you! I prefer reading to listening but this was pure pleasure for the entire duration. Thank you so much, Joe.
Watching this again after reading Devil In A Coma.
I had the pleasure of getting to know Mark over coffee at the roasters I worked in SF, back in 2012. I’ll never forget talking candidly about art and music. A shame the world goes on without him anymore
Thanks great interview!
Love Mark, long time fan of his music and his humility with respect to his talent & what he has contributed to music. He’s one of the all time greats, no doubt about it.
Respectfully, I wish that the interviewer talked a bit less and listened more. There were a number of times I felt he cut Mark off during key moments to tell his own story.
what a great interview. Mark Lanegan is such an intelligent, interesting and talented guy. and very humble when it comes to his talent.
really enjoyed your interviewing process. relaxed and not scripted or with an agenda. i appreciate the way you got Mark to open up, especially on difficult topics.
now i need to read Mark’s memoir!
