Biography

Rock band formed in 1984 in Ellensburg, Washington, USA. Screaming Trees was a unique voice in the Pacific Northwest "grunge" scene. Their sound was more psychedelic, garage-rock, and '70s hard rock influenced which made them stand out amongst their peers. After a couple independent releases on local [l=Velvetone Records (2)], they were signed to [l=SST Records] where they released 3 albums (from 1987 to 1989) before making the jump to [l=Epic] Records in 1990. Their Epic debut "Uncle Anesthesia" was released around the same time as major label debuts from Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, and Alice In Chains hit the stores... but Screaming Trees didn't have their first hit until their second Epic album "Sweet Oblivion" came out and their first single from that album appeared on the soundtrack for the movie "Singles". The band broke up in 2000, and [a=Mark Lanegan] continued his solo projects from there. [a=Mark Lanegan] and [a=Barrett Martin] were also involved in the side-project [a=Mad Season] along with [a=Alice In Chains] singer [a=Layne Staley].

LYRICS

Did you hear the distant cry
Calling me back to my sin
Like the one you knew before
Calling me back once again
I nearly, I nearly lost you there
And it's taking us somewhere
I nearly lost you there
Let's try to see now

Drag me far enough to know
I'm blind every mile that you burn
There's a rider that's fallen and
It's clear there's no time to return

I nearly, I nearly lost you there
And it's taking us somewhere
I nearly lost you there
Let's try to see now

Did you hear the distant lie
Calling me back to my sin
Like the one you knew before
Calling me back once again

I nearly, I nearly lost you there
And it's taking us somewhere
I nearly lost you there
Well let's try to see now
I nearly lost you there....
