Screaming Trees – Uncle Anesthesia

This one’s soo good, simply a nice reissue of a nice recording!
Doesn’t sound bad at all, good quality vinyl.

Have I praised it already?

CD lacks sound not so loud disappointing unless it's the mastering hopefully I can find a better sounding copy

I don't know for sure & could be wrong but it sounds very much like it was sourced from CD. I would've liked a higher quality sleeve as well rather than the almost paper thin one presented here. If you're a fan, you're going to get it anyway. If you're a flipper you're going to jack up the price now due to Lanegan's ing. Get it while you can.

Finally picked up a copy of this and have zero complaints. Sounds good just like the vast majority of the MOV reissues.

I know I’m knit picking, but I really wish the vinyl version had cover like this instead of the ugly border on the cover art.

I said on the other version. Any reason for the border, it just so unnecessary. I honestly would have just kept the cover to fill the entire cover.

Been a fan of the Trees since Sweet Oblivion, but this is one of the only records of theirs I hadn't listened to before now. So without familiarity with the CD, I can't say if it's the pressing or just the mix, but Mark's vocals seem kinda burried, and the record sounds a little anemic in general.

With it I also got Dust from the same publisher, and that sounds fine. So could be just the mix.

this promo had to have come out in the early fall of 1990. when the trees did their fall '90 tour with social distortion, i already knew the songs from the 'new' album.

It's a pretty well-established fact that corporations are evil, so when Washington guitar-psych peddlars Screaming Trees signed to Sony/Epic, fans of the band held their collective breath and waited for the worst. As it turns out, we needn't have worried. Sure, there were only two albums between this album and oblivion for Screaming Trees, and this is likely to be the first album from them with horns, and the sound mix tends more toward the buzzsaw than the sludge, but this is unmistakeably a Screaming Trees album. From the quiet menace of tracks like 'Bed of Roses,' 'Before We Arise' and album closer 'Closer' to the glorious tuneful guitar playgrounds like opener 'Beyond This Horizon' and 'Alice Said,' there's not a single moment this does not sound like the same band fans had been loving for years. In restrospect, it remains merely another superb album from this often-overlooked element of the Seattle craze of the early 1990s, and thus further testament to their sublime and timeless quality.
