I also never really paid attention to Alice in Chains but most of stuff that I know from them is very good, so maybe here is my treasure. Anyway, they are sometimes referred to as 'a fake grunge' band with a crush on heavy metal.
EDIT: BTW. Shooting yourself in the head can also help in becoming a legend.

I do sort of believe dying young, and under the circumstances that Cobain did would aid in your status as a "troubled genius" or "legend". So I kind of agree with that. Although, I DO hate to spit on the graves of people. He's not here to defend himself. But I think it might have boosted his popularity.
