Ellensburg WA, United States (1985 – 2000)
Screaming Trees were a grunge band formed in Ellensburg, Washington in 1985. Their sound was a mix of 60’s psychedelia and punk rock, and even though they were critically acclaimed by many, they never achieved the superstardom of their peers. Following the Dust tour, Screaming Trees took another hiatus. After a June 25th 2000 concert to celebrate the opening Seattle’s Experience Music Project, the group unsurprisingly announced their official breakup.
One of their earliest performances was in Ellensburg where they opened for future superstars Soundgarden and Faith No More. Ticket price for this show was $3.00.
The founding members were brothers Gary Lee Conner (guitars) and Van Conner (bass), vocalist Mark Lanegan, and drummer Mark Pickerel. They released several albums on the SST label, and then moved on to the Epic label later, after which Pickerel was replaced with Barrett Martin. After the band disbanded, most band members have moved on to other projects. Mark Lanegan did so most notably.
On August 2, 2011, Final Words: The Final Recordings was released digitally.

Anyone recommend a good place to start when discovering Screaming Trees/ Mark Lanegan solo stuff for the first time?

Yeah, the 'new' album is really great. For me, it's easily one of the best albums of this year (not bad considering it's 12 years old...). They did some great B-sides and covers too though... Silver Tongue, This Perfect Day, Tomorrow's Dream. It's well worth tracking that stuff down.

The "new" album rules. They were still on top of their game when they left. Goddamn it bums me out that they left. I saw them three times between 1997-99 when Homme was in the band and they could be untouchable if Mark was on.

How is it constructive criticism when the band has not been playing together for over ten years? Please enlighten us all. Are you going to make new versions of their songs all by yourself? The "peace out" at the end is a nice touch, and you should always pre-emptively apologize for offending anyone when you post something like this. Good work : )

its called constructive criticism...sorry if i've offended anyone here by saying what i think, but SOME of otherwise great songs gets ruined either by a defect guitar that badly needs a tuneup if its not actually directly false notes that s being played..reminds me of Corbain leads..mostly just plain awful (solowise) Hey man- but i still love the music and its all just imo and a matter if taste anyway right? peace out
