#2 Stone Temple Pilots – Core



Early days of the grunge movement, and I was completely submerged in it. As a sophomore in high school and a bit of an outcast, not just the music of STP, but also the flare and flamboyant feel of the band and Scott Weiland made me want to be them. Core was one of the tapes I always kept close at hand to throw in the car stereo and blast riding into the arcade parking lot.


I always had a funny feeling about Core though, because of the varying tone from song to song. “Dead & Bloated” and “Sex Type Thing” were so obviously hard and grunge, but “Wicked Garden” and “Plush” had very different feels. I didn’t think too hard about it at the time, but coming back to it later just reiterated that bands are more than just what they’re marketed as.
