Mark Lanegan (57) was the lead vocalist for the indie rock band Screaming Trees.
He was easily one of the central figures in the Seattle grunge rock scene for many years. Lanegan also recorded for Queens of the Stone Age and was well regarded by many fellow musicians.
Lanegan was hospitalized for Covid-19 earlier this month but passed away on Tuesday due to complications caused by the effects of Covid on his body.
RIP. Thank you for the music. Rock on!
