The Blue Trees marked a more streamlined, if no less eccentric, chapter for Gorky's Zygotic Mynci, featuring more concise songwriting than their earlier, sprawling works. It was the band's fourth studio album, following 1999's "Spanish Dance Parade."
- "The Blue Trees" was released on October 1, 2000, on the independent label Mantra.
- The album was produced by Jon Stewart, who had previously worked with bands like The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and Stereolab.
- The album's release followed a period of touring in support of their previous album, "Spanish Dance Parade."
Gorky's Zygotic Mynci were a Welsh psychedelic folk-rock band formed in 1991, known for their whimsical and eclectic sound. At the time of "The Blue Trees" in 2000, they were a few albums into their career on the independent label Mantra, having moved from BMG's Creation Records.
