In The Trees is the second studio album by Canadian rock band The Watchmen. It was the first album to be released with Ken Tizzard on bass, who joined the band in 1994 when Pete Loewen left. With hit singles "Boneyard Tree", "All Uncovered", and "Lusitana", this was the band's breakthrough release in their home country of Canada. Videos for both "Boneyard Tree" and "All Uncovered" received heavy play on MuchMusic. At this time, singer Daniel Greaves began to become more comfortable with his songwriting ability. Because of this, only three of the album's songs were credited to guitarist Joey Serlin.

Commercial performance

The album was certified Platinum in Canada by the Canadian Recording Industry Association on May 31, 1995.[1] To date, this is the band's only Platinum album in Canada. By March 1996, the album had sold 150,000 copies in Canada.[2]
