I like this album more than any other band's from the northwest in the 90s. So even though I like Alice in Chains & Soundgarden more, Screaming Trees are worthy enough to be called great because of THIS album.

Great song, wrong album. That was off Sweet Oblivion...also on the Singles soundtrack. :)

Yes. One of their earlier tracks. I used to drive back and forth through Ellensburg during the years they were just getting started. My best man went to Central WA University. It's amazing how many great bands came out of those small Washington towns, and that the music was actually being made in the 80's, during the height of synth. It only "broke" in the 90's.

While we're on the subject of Aussie bands, Midnight Oil was great, and a really wonderful and captivating live band as well.

I used to love this band way back when. I think they only had 2 albums and then the singer took a total 180 degree turn and turned into the poppy "Vitamin C" character for whatever reason lol.
