Uncle Anesthesia was produced by heavy metal specialist Terry Date and Soundgarden vocalist Chris Cornell.[3] Despite the major label backing, the album failed to expand the Trees' audience. "Bed of Roses" was released as a single and became a minor hit on the Modern Rock charts.

Uncle Anesthesia es el quinto álbum de estudio de los Screaming Trees, banda de grunge originaria de Ellensburg, ciudad cercana a Seattle, considerada casi unánimemente como cuna del movimiento grunge. El disco fue editado el 29 de enero de 1991 en el sello Epic Records, y contiene dos de las cuatro canciones que aparecían en el anterior EP de la banda, Something About Today: "Uncle Anesthesia" y "Ocean of Confusion". Este trabajo fue grabado en junio de 1990, convirtiéndose en el último de la banda con Mark Pickerel en la batería, siendo sustituido poco después por Barrett Martin.
