"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".
(Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All-Music Guide)
"A melodic mixture of psychedelia and '60s garage-rock has made the Screaming Trees, spawned in remote Ellensburg, Washington, one of the most influential, atypical and underrated bands to spring from the Northwest. Highlighted by Mark Lanegan's deep, mournful voice and Gary Lee Conner's snarling guitar work, the Trees conjure reverent but never derivative visions of the Seeds, Stooges, 13th Floor Elevators and even the Amboy Dukes".

I think this rock band is good enough but it will never be like Black Sabbath because they were the kings of this genre, besides I think the style was a bit different.m10m
