Screaming Trees - Live Performance of 'Dying Days'

Date: 1997

In January 1997, when the live recording of "Dying Days" took place, Screaming Trees was at a transitional point in their career. This performance occurred shortly after the release of their 1996 album, *Dust*, which marked a critical juncture for the band, as it was their last studio album before an extended hiatus. *Dust* showcased a more polished sound and included standout tracks that represented their blend of grunge and alternative rock. Notably, the band had been part of the Seattle music scene and enjoyed success in the wake of the early '90s grunge movement, but they faced challenges in maintaining momentum. Their live performances, like the one captured in this video, illustrate the energy and musicianship that characterized their work during this period, even as they approached a significant change in their career trajectory, with individual members pursuing various projects post-Screaming Trees.
