Mad Season
Mad Season war ein Projekt der Musiker Mike McCready (Gitarre; Pearl Jam),
Layne Staley (Gesang, Alice In Chains), Barrett Martin (Schlagzeug, Screaming Trees) und Brian Baker (Bass).
Mad Season entstanden am 16. Oktober 1994 aus einer Jam-Session im legendären Seattler Crocodile-Café und nahmen nur ein Album, genannt Above, auf. Auf diesem Album ist als Gast auch Mark Lanegan, damals Sänger der Screaming Trees und später Sänger der Queens Of The Stone Age zu hören. Er steuerte Gesangteile zu den Songs Above und Long Gone Day bei. Layne Staley starb im Jahr 2002 an einer Überdosis Heroin - Kokain (bekannt als Speedball). Mit ihm ging nach Kurt Cobain ein weiteres Idol der frühen 90er-Jahre verfrüht von uns.

...Suzy was a
bad child Always on the wrong side Ah, she was no good She was bad, bad, bad with the bad cats Always punching the needle in her arm... |

A good night, the best in a long time A new friend turned me on to an old favorite Nothing better than a dealer who's high Be high, convince them to buy Chorus What's my drug of choice? Well, what have you got? I don't go broke And I do it a lot Seems so sick to the hypocrite norm Running their boring drills But we are an elite race of our own The stoners, junkies, and freaks Are you happy? I am, man. Content and fully aware Money, status, nothing to me 'Cause your life is empty and bare Chorus You can't understand a user's mind But try, with your books and degrees If you let yourself go and opened your mind I'll bet you'd be doing like me And it ain't so bad Chorus Say, I do it a lot! .....I do it a lot! .....I do it a lot! Say, I do it a lot! |

...I give this part of me for you... I have never felt such frustration Or lack of self control I want you to kill me And dig me under, I wanna live no more |
