To Be Honest I Have No Idea What They Were All About

This is a flavor of the month group. Nothing more nothing less. Half of thier problem was that they were getting too much airplay all at once. It was like the Moby Grape Syndrome of 1967 when Columbia records released a single a day for 5 days after the album was released, and I feel that's what happened here, or possibly STP just has a bigger following down here in Central Florida. When you're gettting bombarded by songs like "Sex Type Thing", "Plush", "Creep", and "Big Empty" 24/7 almost you keep saying "That's Enough", but then you include "Vasoline" into the mix 2 weeks before the albums released then you have a problem. By the time "Interstate Love Song" was getting airplay in August of 94 I was dissolusioned with radio, and I was in a personal funk as well. The other half is they aren't really original anyhow. The first album proved that as "Dead & Bloated" they rip off Danzig, "Sex Type Thing" they rip off Alice In Chains, "Wicked Garden", and "Plush" they rip off Pearl Jam. They try to be more themselves here, but the key word is try, but the material is so lame that it's just not worth the effort. They would release 4 more albums after this, but thier effect slowly ebbed away. Now Scott Weiland is playing with Guns and Roses minus Axl, and the rest have just gone away.
