'''''Uncle Anesthesia''''' is the [[Screaming Trees]]' fifth album and first full-length album release on [[Epic Records]], released on [[January 29]], [[1991]]. It includes two of the four tracks from the band's previous Epic release, 1990's ''[[Something About Today]]'' EP, including the song that would give the LP its title. The album, recorded throughout June of 1990, was the last to feature drumming by original member [[Mark Pickerel]], who left on amicable terms in 1991 to work in a variety of projects. He would be replaced by [[Barrett Martin]].
''Uncle Anesthesia'' was co-produced by noted [[heavy metal]] specialist [[Terry Date]] and [[Soundgarden]] vocalist [[Chris Cornell]]. Despite the major label backing, the album failed to expand the Trees' audience beyond its existing fanbase. However, "Bed of Roses" was released as a single and became a minor hit on the Modern Rock charts.
