Stone Temple Pilots

How does that line go about the devil wanting to fuck him in the back of his car?

Nothing quite like the feel of something new.

pitchfork's reminds me of some of my friends.

My fuckin' doorman gave me a CD-R of Velvet Revolver a couple of weeks back, and if I'm not mistaken sports a Stone Temple Pilots tattoo (the boy needs lots of help). While I cannot really understand how people could get that into the shenanigans of the Stone Temple Pilots, I did -- in all fairness -- find myself quite enjoying an airring of "Down" back to back with "Vaseline" whilst fruitlessly searching for an elusive Coil disc at the Virgin Megastore yesterday (gosh, I'm so pathetic -- in my attempt to confess a guilty pleasure, I feel the strenuous need to point out that I was searching for an arguably much hipper disc....god, I'm such a fucking cliche). In any event, I must concede that STP did have a way with big fuckin' hooks.

I'll still take Soundgarden's "Big Dumb Sex" over their "Sex Type Thing" any day of the week (though it does have a damn nice riff).

yeah, malkmus was kidding. but he was kidding in a manner that attempted to deride stone temple pilots

as for my thoughts on stp,

'purple' is a classic of alternative rock. all the right ingredients coming together, and quite a departure from the mediocre and muddled 'core'.

'tiny music' is an odd affair indeed. some classy beatles-esque pop-rock ('lady picture show') and some genuinely fun tunes throughout, but it just somehow fails to leave much of a... mark.

'no. 4' is rubbish. well ok, 'church on tuesday' might have been ok had the chorus not been repeated a thousand times.

Stone Temple Pilots is the sixth studio album by American rock band Stone Temple Pilots. The album will be released on May 25, 2010 on Atlantic Records.

The album cover incorporates the artwork Peace Fingers Red, designed by Shepard Fairey. According to Kretz, "It was just something to kind of symbolize more of our attitude right now.... We definitely are in a really good place right now as a band and really want to spread some peace and love across the world as much we can. We're going to do it through music and the celebration of rock and roll."

lol, come on now. they just want to spread some peace and love across the world as much they can.

And they're gonna do it through music and the celebration of rock and roll.

don't judge them harshly.

No. 4 is actually a real solid album, though it took me a pretty long while to find it out...best track is probably Glide...

A few edits away from a great Onion article.

it would be really fun to throw rocks at Scott Weiland.

loooool their new singer is Chester Bennington: http://downloads.radio.com/stone-temple-pilots/

yessss i love when microgenerational distinctions are blurred in the name of classic rock

thanks to the field behind them it also looks like a photo for an 4-piece REM "plays Out of Time" reunion

with bennington gradually revealing him as another hard rock putz I finally got around to seeing how he joined a group of diverse weirdos like linkin park, and yup, he got an audition with them through a VP at Zomba

revealing himself, and i found that on wikipedia, didnt mean to make it sound like i was investigating deeply

haha. yeah the fact that Angry Timberlake was added to the lineup not long before they blew up fueled a lot of 'nu metal boy band' type accusations in the early days.

Which is worse? Your wife walking in on you fucking a meatloaf with a picture of her sister’s face taped to it, or the Stone Temple Pilots?

aw that's sad. first stp album was a big deal to me when i was like 13

pour one out

no fucking way. damn, that's pretty sad.

i think the first concert i ever went to without my parents might have been an STP show (on a bill put together by a local radio station, with asphalt ballet and electric love hogs)

heheheh this was the logo of the radio station that championed these guys

I saw them once with Butthole Surfers and The Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy opening. After Gibby takes the stage, Weiland's skinny-ass shimmying seems a little quaint. They were fun, though.

this was sort of the band I got into because my alt rock radio whore friend forced his tastes on me and I acted like his lapdog. but then truly grew to appreciate their stuff.

sad...no deets yet on how but also not incredibly surprised it happened before his 50s.

RIP

Fantastic Singles Band. Surprising he lasted this long. There was a video circulating of him and his solo band from about a year ago doing a club gig down in Victoria or Corpus Christi Tx, where they're attempting to perform "Wicked Garden" (iirc) for the first time on stage, and it even comes off like it's Weiland's first time doing it too--misses notes, lyrics, just fumbles his way through it, earning requisite boos--and it's like, wow, if doing a club gig in a moderate-sized Gulf Coast city wasn't bad enough...RIP

Aw man super sad, dude struggled for so long. RIP

Purple is one of my all time favorite albums.
