Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Mauro Wanna Be	#1 by Mauro Leon at Sep 15, 1972 at 10:55 AM EST
	its so pathetic that no1 comments on screaming trees songs. they're so underrated. i guess everyone is too busy commenting on emo bands and rap music...

No Picture Jacob Lead Player	#2 by Jacob Julian at Oct 18, 1985 at 3:19 AM EST
	And nobody commented on this thing? What the fuck is wrong with people? This is one of the bands best. Period.

No Picture Max Average	#3 by Max Benton at Mar 22, 1989 at 11:47 AM EST
	I've just recently started listening these guys, heard about them through QOTSA, and I definetly love them. Too bad they're not around anymore, they are certainly better than most of today's bands. Mark's is probably my favorite voice. From Wikipedia: "The record [Dirt] featured Mike McCready of Pearl Jam and Mad Season playing the guitar solo on 'Dying Days', a track commemorating the death of several of Lanegan's close friends, and of the grunge scene in general."

No Picture Beaver Average	#4 by Beaver Butt at May 16, 1999 at 10:42 AM EST
	Most people are not smart enough to find a band like the Screaming Trees. I was led to them through Alice in Chains and after becoming familiar with how smart and developed their songs were, I read all the lyrics to every song on every album. Mark Lanegan has a real gift for poetry and vocal patterns. Consider this - the show Full House was on the air for almost 10 years - meaning it got high enough ratings, enough households were actually watching it on a daily or weekly basis to make it last for almost a decade. That's what you're dealing with. In other cases, people just don't 'get it'. They hear the music, but they don't really listen or have a good sense of dual perspective. They can't feel what is being expressed like others can. You can hear Mark Lanegan's pain, misery, anguish or wonder in each lyric. The master of this was Kurt Cobain. It's not a developed thing. When Kurt Cobain sang, it sounded like it came straight from his soul. There were no barriers, no filters, no falsity. Some people just can't detect that - they think he just sounds like a 'cat being killed' or a 'wounded animal'. The funny thing is - they actually got it right and didn't even know it. He was dying inside and that's what it sounds like. The song "No One Knows", "Troubled Times", "Too Far Away" and many others have elicited tears from me on many occasions. If you are ever faced with serious heartache, The Screaming Trees should join you.
