Sure wacky Scott is the brand, and Dean keeps the beautiful fuzz and melody purring, but after much listening, it seems Robert may have been the actual sonic backbone in their greatest, kick ass hits.





I'm too retarded to embed vids, but feel free if you love the sonic magic these guys weaved.

100% correct. He's written some awesome, awesome basslines.

There is a "Live in Shitcago" concert (oh noes, does this offend anyone?) that they play on VH1 and Palladia now and then, and I swear, they are SPOT ON in their timing as a beautiful rock machine.  If you ever get the opportunity to catch it, please do.

No shit - it gives "Core" a whole new meaning.  Rock on.

I got to see them in a small venue back before Purple was released. Made a bet with my friend that they would open with "Crackerman" and I was right!

There's definitely something special about bands with siblings; STP, NXS, AC/DC, the Carpenters, it goes on and on and on.  





If you are a musician, you can appreciate the concept of "shared genetic timing", which is kind of a sonic morphic resonance thing (thank you for the definition, Rupert Sheldrake).





I had two dear childhood friends - brothers and knew them from Middle School - and when we got together and rocked out, the timing was just magic.

The bass, guitar, and drum TIMING is absolutely epic and magic, IMHO.


Anyone care to post more vid songs from that release?

"Purple" is just phenomenal. I think it's one of the strongest sophomore efforts a band has ever put forth, and it may be their best album.

That song was "Dead and Bloated".  Yea, it was raw and sonically sensual to the upmost, and perhaps only surpassed by "Wicked Garden"


If you like STP in the unadulterated raw, "Wicked Garden" is what usually makes the exhaust system on my car glow.

One played drums (hell, he played drums, guitar, bass, and the flute), and the other played guitar and bass.  We'd meet, in the early to mid 80s (I played guitar), and play in their basement, sometimes their garage, and sometimes in our garage. Our timing was consummate and magical, too, and that's not beer goggles memory.  I would not trade those garage rocking memories for anything. The timing they brought to the mix cannot be easily described.

Yep.  Been a fan for a long time.

Don't know their names, relationship or pedigree.  Nor do I care, I just like the rockin music.

Now my 14 y.o. daughter is hooked.  The two of us spent 30 hours in the car driving to the UP of Michigan and back.

We rocked out like we cannot when Mom and sister are in the car.

I'd put Core in my top 10 albums of the 90's list. Purple and Tiny Music were good albums, too.

I saw them at the state fair around the time they did the acoustic show on MTV.

They did half the show acoustic, sitting on a couch, they still rocked. It was one

of my top ten favorite concerts.

Definitely one of the best to have come out of that scene.  A lot of Jamerson-esque qualities.

I agree that the the DeLeo brothers and Kretz do an excellent job together.

Love STP...when Weiland is on he's on.  One of the best concerts (and front men) I've ever seen was front row against the railing at a small (3-4K person) venue.  The Linkin Park dude does a "decent" impersonation of STP's former lead singer but it'll never be the same.

STP is one of the greatest bands ever.   Core,  Purple,  Tiny Music,  and Stone Temple Pilots are fucking epic records.  

Weiland is one of the great rock front men.

Chester Bennington from Linkin Park is reportedly no longer singing with STP. My wife and I saw STP with Bennington last year at Louder Than Life. Bennington tried but just never seemed to be able to "hit" the vocals.

Hopefully now that Weiland is out of rehab he can keep his stuff together and get back together with STP.

I love STP. I've seen them many times live and they always put on a great show. Despite Scott's... issues, he's a great front man and the band always sounds awesome. I have their stuff on vinyl, cd and DVD.

Core is one of those great debut albums, like LedZep, Aerosmith, The Doors and Pearl Jam, etc. Great stuff.
