Influential Seattle band that began with raw neo-psychedelia but evolved 

into one of the marquee outfits of the 1990s grunge movement.

Where many of their Seattle-based contemporaries dealt in reconstructed Black Sabbath 

and Stooges riffs, Screaming Trees fused '60s psychedelia and garage rock 

with '70s hard rock and '80s punk. Over the course of their career, their more 

abrasive punk roots eventually gave way to a hard-edged, rootsy psychedelia 

that drew from rock and folk equally. After releasing several albums on indie 

labels like SST and Sub Pop, Screaming Trees moved to Epic Records in 1989. 

Though they were one of the first Seattle bands to sign with a major label, 

the group never attained the popularity of fellow Northwestern bands (and friends) 

like Nirvana and Soundgarden, largely due to their erratic work schedule

On Screaming Trees' third full-length release, Invisible Lantern, the band further refined 

their early psychedelic garage sound. The group had become a bona fide cult success 

by the time of this release, but the indie scene was losing steam and this disc 

(while superior to earlier efforts) didn't garner enough critical or commercial 

attention to move the band into mainstream awareness. 

The music of Invisible Lantern is spirited and raw -- a swirling garage pop that, 

while repetitive, has a character all its own. However, Invisible Lantern stands 

as a solid offering to the waning indie rock movement...(AllMusic)
