 Screaming Trees - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Founded in Ellensburg, Washington in 1985, their sound was a mixture of arty '60s psychedelia and west-coast punk rock.
On their last tour in 1996, guitarist Josh Homme, a former member of the band Kyuss, joined the Screaming Trees for some shows.
This was driven in part by the song "Nearly Lost You", which appeared on the movie soundtrack, Singles.

 Screaming Trees
These days the Trees are more apt to quote from a classic-rock chestnut like the Small Faces' "Song of a Baker" (which they covered on the B-side of a 1992 single after openly borrowing riffs from the song for years) than from anything in the punk canon.
The Trees were once punk enough to be part of the SST roster.
It's riff-rock with a cavernous emotional depth, a surface of gnarled hooks fashioned from churning, melodic guitars, and, in between, plush, exotic layers of organ, Mellotron, acoustic guitar, sitar, and percussion.

 Screaming Trees: Ocean of Confusion: Songs of Screaming Trees 1989-1996 - PopMatters Music Review
It's too bad that Screaming Trees don't retain a spot at the top of that list, as they made some of the best music of that era not to be heard on the same scale of that of their peers.
Ocean of Confusion begins when the Screaming Trees' tenure with Epic began, circa 1990, after releasing albums on the Velvetone, Sub Pop, and SST labels (thus it's not a comprehensive career overview, but it does capture what were arguably the Trees' best years).
On the EP Something About Today (1990) and major label LP debut Uncle Anesthesia (1991) (both co-produced by Soundgarden's Chris Cornell), Screaming Trees had bred themselves to be a rock 'n' roll juggernaut, more in touch with their classic rock influences than those of the indie underground.

 Screaming Trees
In 1996 the Screaming Trees may get counted as what they've always been; a rock and roll band, a great band.
Singer Mark Lanegan released his second beautiful solo album and drummer Barrett Martin recorded the Mad Season album with Layne Staley and Mike McCready.
So finally, 1995 arrived and the Screaming Trees came together to record their seventh full length album, Dust.

 InternetEd Reviews: Screaming Trees- Sweet Oblivion
Whatever you call Screaming Trees' style, it is creative and composed of well-written and performed songs.
Next up is "Nearly lost You," the Screaming Trees' most popular song that is dominated by impressive blues-based lead guitar playing and Lanegan's pleasant vocals, while "Dollar Bill" is a soft acoustic guitar driven song that develops into a slow grunge/folk rock tune.
Another noteworthy aspect of Screaming Trees' sound is the vocals that are lower than most and are simultaneously strong and rich in tonality.

 TrouserPress.com :: Screaming Trees
Unlike most of their peers, the Trees improved steadily with each album, moving in a remarkably linear and consistent curve toward the almost classic-rock grace of Sweet Oblivion and the awesomely ambitious Dust.
Solomon Grundy is Van's side band, whose album rocks aplenty but is a bit thin in the songwriting department.
With guest spots by everyone from Dan Peters of Mudhoney to J Mascis, the album uses acoustic guitars to almost symphonic effect, and the songs find Lanegan pouring misery onto tape in his finest fashion yet.

 Amazon.co.uk: Dust: Music
Although the Seattle band's '80s albums on SST Records had obvious roots in folk-rock and psychedelia, those influences were obscured in the metallic roar of the group's two previous major-label albums.
DUST is the most stripped-down of Screaming Trees' albums, with Gary Lee Connors' electric guitars mixed lower than before, giving more room to Lanegan's whiskey-cured voice.
While a lot of grunge bands dealt with dark topics such as drug abuse and death, Screaming Trees songs are generally concerned with lighter subjects, for example, love or religion.

 Screaming Trees - Sweet Oblivion
Although not exactly on the lips of record buyers everywhere, Screaming Trees became more than a Seattle secret with the 1992 release of Cameron Crowe's 'Singles', a comedy based in Seattle, and the subsequent platinum soundtrack, which included "Nearly Lost You" from 'Sweet Oblivion'.
While other Seattle bands, most of them comparatively new, became MTV fodder, Screaming Trees was seemingly left behind in, uh, sweet oblivion.
Together with guitarist Gary Lee Conner and drummer Barrett Martin, Mark and Van have spent the better part of the last year in various stages of production for this record, their third for Epic and their seventh overall.

 Amazon.com: Clairvoyance: Music: Screaming Trees
All in all, this album is worth a listen for any fan of Screaming Trees and Mudhoney.
Few bands mixed psychedelic, hard rock and punk sounds in the mid '80s quite the way the Screaming Trees did.
But I think the casual listener should buy one of the Trees` later albums first.

 Screaming Trees - Dust (1996)
Mark Lanegan is still milking the Morrison baritone thing for all it's worth, with the exception of letting the listener in on the poetry of the words he's singing by providing a lyric sheet.
The Screaming Trees have yet to wander off the path they beat on their last two records, Uncle Anesthesia and Sweet Oblivion.
Sure, they added a few Eastern instruments into the mix, but this music is still the same old pseudo-psychedelic, 4/4 guitar dominated rock they've been making for several years now.

 The Big D's Screaming Trees News
The Trees, as you know, have been taking a break recently -- they have voluntarily backed out of their Epic contract and are now searching for a label.
What makes this particularly attractive is: (a) it's the Trees, dammit; (b) it's the Trees latest known recording; (c) the masses will finally be able tohear (hopefully, that is if they broadcast the whole show) the mysterious "Ash Gray Sunday" which by all accounts was awesome.
The Bumbershoot show, played last Labor Day weekend, will be broadcast at LiveConcerts.com on Sunday, December 20.

I never got that they were "punk" but I suppose if you played loud feedback-laden guitars in the '80s you were bound to get that label.

 Ink 19 :: Barrett Martin
At that point, Skinyard had made five records and that was kind of the life of the band, so the band broke up amicably.
I remember Mark Lanegan [Screaming Trees vocalist] telling me that the first record they did for Epic, Uncle Anesthesia, was marketed as a heavy metal record [laughs].
The other thing that was really interesting about that time was that alternative music -- which had of course already existed -- was totally new territory because the labels didn’t even know how to market the bands.

After spending what could be considered a lifetime's career in music; playing drums for Skinyard, the Screaming Trees and Mad Season, Martin delved into more experimental realms of sound.

 Screaming Trees: Ocean of Confusion: Pitchfork Review
Because some halfwits at Epic Records think there is an actual market for a cheap 19-song compilation culled from three albums by that "Nearly Lost You" band.
Because the best song is still "Nearly Lost You", and being stuck in the middle of this morass does it no favors-- it sounds just as mundane and turgid and wanky as what preceded and what follows.
Because it would make more sense, given the particular niche this release is aiming for, to simply do right by the group and just release a set collecting all the songs in Screaming Trees' Epic catalog.

As Tuatara prepares to release "Trading With the Enemy," its sophomore album of world music-tinged, ethereal pop, the group is planning to embark on a short tour with Screaming Trees vocalist, Mark Lanegan.
Buck and Martin, who plays on R.E.M.'s new album, are slated to perform at the Tibetan benefit show the day before at RFK Stadium.

 Screaming Trees
Throughout Dust, the Trees build the songs from a low-key start to an eruption.
Mark Lanegan’s deep and raspy vocals haven’t sounded better (he is truly an amazing singer), Gary Lee Conner’s guitarwork is lofty and infectious, Lee Conner’s bass is very bold and solid, and Barrett Martin’s percussion would make Charlie Watts proud (he’s one of the best).
(Especially with them in the opening slot in Lollapalooza ‘96.) No other band around plays with the raw emotion and power that the Trees exude in their songs.

While the Trees had been around for a half-dozen albums before their hit "Nearly Lost You," it wasn't until Sweet Oblivion that they found their signature sound.
Their secret weapon was always the use of singer Mark Lanegan's rich voice, shifting from ragged baritone to banshee wail as the band turns it up and down.

The album will boast two previously unreleased tracks, "Paperback Bible" and "Watch Pocket Blues," which were recorded between "Sweet Oblivion" and "Dust" but ultimately shelved.

They worked on solo material he was demoing up and, hey, "this is the first tour any of us have done in a couple of years and they're like the best shows the Screaming Trees have ever played - having Josh in the band really supports that rhythmic driving sound.
And you know Martin is proud, and rightly so, the Trees threw away an album to find these moments.
Lanegan and I were both wanting to experiment with different instrumentation and had been on our side projects so it kind of built up to the point where it was 'alright, we're going to make the record we want', do the all these different things we've been talking about and experimenting with."
