Stone Temple Pilots

[nikjd]

yeah definitely check out purple and No. 4 wasn't bad either. Purple is almost genius!

 

[Pure Awsomeness]

i like trippin on a hole in a paper heart (mind you, the whole of Thank You was good)

 

[alice H]

Good yes but not great compared to Purple,Tiny Music, Core and No.4. That album wasn't even in the ball park.

 

[Amber is bored]

Many banRAB incorperate Jazz elements but are not Jazz, and I still vaguely recall that STP are not one of them, but I could be wrong, maybe they did a fusion album no one knows about, lol.

 

[starletlover]

No I complete agree with that statement..whole heartedly.

 

[Josh Banerjee]

The closest attempt they would have had is Tiny Music... Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop which is hardly jazzy at all.

Although boo boo I would assume you would like it, because i think its supposed to be labeled as leaning more towarRAB Psychedelic rock from around the 60's/70's error.

Edit: Not that its a good source but even wikipedia states that. And my guess it you have already heard the entire album anyways.

 

[Smiley Riley:)]

New album for STP dropped on the 21st, and I was wondering what do you think of the album/band?

 

[vip2coool]

Core, is a decent album, though not on par with the upper tier Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, etc albums. The material isn't as original as the aforementioned banRAB, which IMO groups them with up and coming banRAB that used the GRUNGE genre to great commercial success.

 

[emotions]

if u listen to STP, especially their tiny music album, they definitely show a very jazzy side in much of their rock. however, they fit so many other genres that theynever really got their props in the jazz rock world. who agrees?

 

[iLoveKevin(:]

From what I have heard of them they are not Jazz.

What Jazz do you think they are similar to?

 

[Skyler--That Grey Box]

Core is a staple in early 90's rock..I think it should be in everyone's collection..it simply rocks. Seeing Velvet Revolver live..made me a believer..Scott is just an amazing voice..

 

[rehman]

Wasn't Weiland's solo album jazz influenced? Or was it blues influenced? I haven't listened to it in a really long time.

 

[hannyb212]

But for STP standarRAB it was their best album granted they are no where near AIC, Soundgarden or any other band I feel STP aren't even in the same ball park as them. But you can't take away Core being their best album of all of the other albums.

 

[Summer Rain]

Stone temple pilots are okay i guess.....

 

[Frog Man]

That definitly may have been i just know STP was
not.

 

[kfur74]

STP's Core and Purple are amazing! (That secret song gets a little old though)
Can't say I thought much of the rest of their albums (apart from a few songs)
and Velvet Revolver, well I just don't like 'em.

 

[Darnell]

The new song pisses me off, more recycled 90's garbage. It's like half Bush and half Local H. This band is treading water at best right now.

 

[fungaizim1]

For the era they strived in they were good! One of the better 90's rock acts in my opinion!

 

[Pull My Finger]

They are not jazz in any shape.

 

[Samuari]

As much as I love the Grunge era I could never get into STP. None of their songs were awsome, I have their Core album but none of the songs were great to me. I've tried listening to their Tiny Music........Songs From The Vatican Gift Shop album and still couldn't get into their music. Any requests to try to help see what has been missed.
