Description

Stone Temple Pilots has announced a March 16th release date for its highly anticipated new self-titled album, Stone Temple Pilots. This marks the bands first album with the new lead singer, Jeff Gutt.

Despite being one of the best-selling bands of the 1990s with platinum records and a Grammy to its credit, guitarist Dean DeLeo says, This new incarnation of STP is focused on what lies ahead. The best way for us to honor our past is to build on it and keep making new music.

The band does just that on their new album Stone Temple Pilots. Straight-ahead rockers like the first single Meadow and Never Enough channels the gritty guitars and swaggering rhythms that STP perfected on Core (1992), Purple (1994), and No. 4 (1999). Roll Me Under glides along a nimble bass line before slamming hard into gear during the chorus, where Gutts powerful baritone roars against a rage of power chords.

When asked what to expect on the upcoming tour, Robert DeLeo says, With so much time and experience gone by in life we feel compelled to dig back into a 30-year catalog and really try to reflect and choose what songs havent been performed live. We want to give people who have come to see us in the past a chance to hear something they havent heard before at previous STP shows. We want to celebrate this time in lives with our performances.
