i liked one song, first one in some album. seems there was that creep song in the same album.
I have some videos at home, and there's something good about sour girl song and even more about the No Way Out song.

They were quite good at one point. I especially like the song Plush, which was a top40 hit back in the day. Their reputation was only minimally better than Bush's, though. You were not supposed to like them.
Scott Weiland looks frightening these days and it's embarrasing to watch him in that Velvet Revolver band..

Much like a lot of bands the first album was derivative of everything popular at the time, although Sex Type Thing and Crackerman are great. Purple is a really good album, some of the guitar playing/tones on it are amazing. Tiny Music is worth a look mainly for Tripping On A Hole In A Paper Heart. I did not listen to anything after that. Velvet Revolver make my trousers cringe.

you have to check out the song ATLANTA from their #4 album.
Such a beautiful song. I found this cd when cleaning up my CD collection....
May be the best song they(SW) wrote.

Yep i was into them 10 years ago. Them and Faith no more, peral jam, soundgarden, nirvana etc.... dip into it now and then but electronica pulls me right back.
Back in college i had a ticket for a STP gig but on my way form the college to the gig i clean forgot, got my second bus home and didn't cop that i missed the gig till i was too far away...........
