90s at 9 Layne Staley In the Timeout Chair

Layne Staley's writing was great, but he stepped up his guitar playing on this song too.

"Angry Chair" was the third single from Alice in Chains' 1992 album Dirt. It reached #27 on the Alternative Songs chart and #34 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. 
Lead singer, Layne Staley wrote the song about his time in the timeout chair. Whenever he was bad his dad would put him in the chair facing a mirror. 
Not only did Staley do a stellar job on the lyrics, but he also stepped up his guitar game and played on the song.
