Think Tree - Eight Thirteen
Review by Kenn Chin
Think Tree's album Eight Thirteen is a unique and captivating blend of alternative rock and experimental sounds. The album features a range of instruments, including guitars, drums, and synthesizers, which are layered together to create a rich and complex sound.
The opening track, "Hire a Bird," sets the tone for the album with its driving rhythm and intricate guitar work. Other standout tracks include "A Car She Is," which features haunting vocals and a mesmerizing guitar riff, and "Rattlesnake," which showcases the band's ability to seamlessly blend different genres and styles.
Throughout the album, Think Tree's musicianship and creativity are on full display. The band's willingness to take risks and explore new sounds makes Eight Thirteen a truly unique listening experience.

Comments
can somebody post the official remixes (Sing Mix) (Show Mix) from the 12" please
What the lyrics to this song?
Had this cd recorded on a cassette a thousand years ago. Just played this for my son while we're hanging and hiding fom covid. Quite impressed.
Classic early 90's Boston band. Still works for me.
This song should an hour long
brilliant, way way wayyyyy ahead of the curve for 1987
I want to give "GENIUS LYRICS" huge creds and love for helping me find this !!! Same to you 'brianhamel' for sharing amazing music with the world while there is still time...!!!!!!!!!!
I saw them open for Birdsongs of the Mesozoic at Nightstage - great set, great show.
Love them!!! Wish they'd reunite!! I got the drumstick at their final show in Boston/Cambridge
This was my introduction to non-mainstream music in 1990. It was kind of like having 10 hits of liquid acid be your gateway drug. But that's a different story for a different time. When I saw them in 92, a band nobody had ever heard of (at the time) named Morphine opened up for them. What a weird and amazing combination.
such beautiful stuff
1990
I loved seeing them at Ground Zero. Miss the band and the club.
Yes remember this as Think Tree's first single
This song haunted me for over 20 years! I finally hummed a few bars to a radio DJ and he immediately knew who it was. Thanks WBER.
