No perspective view of the original 5 albums. Really shows a biased opinion over actual music rating. And Adhesive on good is actually insane.
I honestly don't know why it's so popular among fans.
The lyrics are alright, but a bit soppy and creepy. The vocals aren't really impressive, the instrumentation is quite repetitive, and then it's also quite simple. Finally, (although this is more personal to me) the overall vibe just isn't it. It's not like plush were you're jamming out to it, but it's not like a sit down and listen like something like maybe Creep (although not really). I find it's a bad in-between. However, this is just my opinion on what vibe feels right.
Please explain why it's so popular to fans so I might be able to appreciate it more.
I see a lot of hate for the song, but I absolutely love it. Can anyone tell me why people hate on it so much?
Here’s an YouTube audio clip of The Scott Weiland Band on tour doing their Opening Jam. (~9 min)
Hi fellow stp fans so I created this thread to get everyone’s opinions on a certain Stone Temple Pilots song that song being piece of pie from the debut album so i’ll start with my opinion I think the song rocks A LOT very very hard rocking song and honestly, I think the song is a very underrated gem from core despite it being performed more in recent years ok enough so now I wonder what are y’all‘s opinions on the song?
I really like it. I’ve listened to big empty, interstate love song and the other popular songs. Where should I start
Scott and Dean were so, so magical when they paired up acoustically. This version of sour girl is chilling.
The No.4 era of touring was so good!
…and tonight was the night, at the El Rey in LA.
It was everything I’d hoped for. My God. What a show. I just f’ing love these guys.
Ty, STP. Don’t ever stop rockin’.
Ima go cry now.
Whenever I listen to this song I feel like I’m listening to a Doors song that’s never been released lol. Scott’s voice sounds eerily like Morrisons on the track. Even the arrangement is doors like. Anybody else think this??
A Band is not Just the Lead Singer
People need to know Band members leave due to Personal stuff,Creative Differences etc they can’t have the same lineup Forever Because being in a Band is not easy
In a band, every member plays a crucial role in creating the music and contributing to the overall sound. However, the specific importance of each member can vary depending on the band's dynamics, musical style, and individual talents.
For example, the lead vocalist often takes on a prominent role in the band's image and stage presence, while the songwriter or composer may have a significant impact on the band's musical direction.
Ultimately, the most important person in a band is often a matter of personal perspective and the unique contributions of each member.
There is no single most important member of a band. All the parts make the whole.
The whole is the main purpose of having a band.
Some songs can be done without all the members but it sounds best when everyone is doing their thing.
On TikTok, and obviously because of the algorithm I see videos pertaining to my taste in music. Why does everyone deny Scott Weiland’s place as one of the big 5 grunge singers of the 90s?! He is always left out when people talk about Cobain, Staley, Vedder, and Cornell. IM SICK OF ITTTT
I was working at a club in Foxboro by where the patriots play and he was doing a club tour of his solo stuff, around when “Missing Cleveland” was getting radio play. Tour manager comes up and says Scott needs smokes or he probably won’t go on. I said I would get them. Upon returning, the manager said “thanks give them to me.” I responded, “hell no, I am doing the hand off.” Got to meet him briefly. Nice guy, but to say his eyes had absolutely no life behind them would be an understatement. It’s like he looked right through me. Gave me a very cool nod and look of approval…..very cool
He went on to get heckled and Boo’d that night because the only STP song he played was ‘Interstate’ and he randomly played a track from the “Tank Girl” soundtrack (Mockingbird girl). The rest were unknown originals.
He could have cared less, he was trying to reinvent and rediscover something. The show was a flop but I respected the hell out of not caving to the crowd. I recall him staying “STP was a fun point of my life, but that time is over” and going back to his set. He had perfected the art of truly not giving a hot Fuck. The funny part was, he was not a dick about it either. Quite the dichotomy!
Anybody else in the world would have been regarded as a complete A-hole, but he pulled it off.
Sorry for the “Discussion” tag being on the post. I clicked on it by mistake and don’t care enough to figure out how to get it off, but acknowledge its insistence.
He smoked Marlboro Light hard packs by the way.
