Clairvoyance
It was right around “Forever” that it hit me: These guys wanna be The Doors if the Doors were a garage band (and they were, weren’t they?) that was trying to merge that sound with, say, Strawberry Alarm Clock.
I know I labeled this Psychedelic Garage but, it’s really…Grunge, isn’t it? I mean, this is early early Grunge, no? Proving that the Grunge movement was really steeped in 60s psychedelia more than anything else.
Having never heard Screaming Trees I always got them confused with some other bands of the era, whose names escape me right now. I look forward to more from these guys.
