Rumors of a new Screaming Trees release have been floating around for a while and they picked up some legitimacy a few weeks back when BMI registered 12 Screaming Trees songs. Now those rumors are no longer rumors because Barrett Martin, Screaming Trees drummer, confirmed the release of a new, old Screaming Trees album. The record, called Last Words: The Final Recordings will be released Aug. 2. Here’s what Martin had to say:
Hey Folks, I’m quite happy to announce that last night, Jack Endino and I finished mixing a new Screaming Trees album. Its the unreleased album we recorded in 1998-99 and its finally coming out on August 2nd on my label. Mark Lanegan, Van Conner, Lee Conner, and myself felt that these final songs should be heard, and soon they shall be. Here’s the album cover, done by the renowned artist Erin Currier.
Here are the songs registered by BMI. It’s not known whether this is the tracklisting for Last Words: The Final Recordings. Also, check out an alternative version of the unreleased “Anita Grey” below.
