Screaming Trees, Last Words: The Final Recordings Album Review
By Ben Walton in Music Reviews on 08 August 2011
It has been said over and over again that Screaming Trees were the nearly men of the 1990's Grunge scene that exploded out of Seattle, spearheaded by Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains and Soundgarden. Despite the success of Nearly Lost You, the band were never able to break into the mainstream in the way that their peers did, which is not to say that they didn't have songs strong enough to do so. Last Words compiles the songs recorded for the bands aborted final album. A small handful of these songs have been circulating on the internet for years now, but here they are presented after a slight clean up job, and finally officially released.
