From the Screaming Trees’ Facebook:

Hey Folks, Barrett Martin has just finished producing the forthcoming album from Tuatara, the renowned instrumental group which features Pearl Jam/Mad Season guitarist Mike McCready, Barrett, saxophone virtuoso Skerik, and REM guitarist Peter Buck. Their new double album (!) is titled, “Underworld,” and it has a song in a new short film from underwater filmmaker Drew Alston. Drew is a contributor to Google Ocean, and he uses the Tuatara song “She Dreams Of Snow” for his short film about ocean conservancy. His film, “Save Your Planet Everyday”, will debut on June 8th at the Reef Renaissance Film Festival on St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands, but you can preview it here first!




this is pretty exciting. i got on the tuatara bandwagon early, being an r.e.m. and mad season fan. i picked up their first couple of records when they came out, but they kind of dropped off my radar after cinematique. i downloaded their later stuff, the east/west set of albums and the loading program, but maybe listened to each of those once or twice at most. i might have to revisit those and give them a proper listen.

here's one of my favorites from their second record, trading with the enemy



mike's involvement with the band isn't new- i'm pretty sure he's on a song or two on one of the first records- but if he is actually a part of the band for this record then that aspect would be new.

This.

And I am excited for the new stuff, too. I really loved the first two albums.
