i was a huge steven king fan for many years, loved all his early work, then i remember at or around the dark half (1989) all his work after that went to all hell and i couldnt get into much of his work after that
then i happened to be browsing wikipedia and saw this, that must have been it. 75% of the music i loved during the 90s was written when the artist was fucked up
Confronting addiction
Shortly after The Tommyknockers publication in 1987, King's family and friends staged an intervention, dumping evidence of his addiction taken from the trash including beer cans, cigarette butts, grams of cocaine, Xanax, Valium, NyQuil, dextromethorphan (cough medicine) and marijuana, on the rug in front of him. As King related in his memoir, he then sought help and quit all forms of drugs and alcohol in the late 1980s, and has remained sober since.[5]
