SCREAMING TREES / GREATEST HITS COMPILATION (2005)
Screaming Trees was an American rock band formed in Ellensburg, Washington, in 1985. The band became an integral part of the Seattle music scene in the late 1980s and early 1990s, though they were often overshadowed by contemporaries like Nirvana and Pearl Jam. The band's classic lineup consisted of Mark Lanegan (vocals), Gary Lee Conner (guitar), Van Conner (bass), and Barrett Martin (drums). Screaming Trees first gained attention with their 1991 album Sweet Oblivion, which included the hit single "Nearly Lost You." Their sound mixed elements of psychedelic rock, folk, and alternative, distinguished by Lanegan's deep, gravelly voice and introspective lyrics.
