SCREAMING TREES
VAN CONNER, MARK PICKEREL, MARK LANEGAN, GARY LEE CONNER, plus STEVE FISK
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 like Nirvana and Soundgarden, largely due to their erratic work schedule
"INVISIBLE LANTERN"Produced by Steve Fisk and Screaming Trees

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)
