Title: Velvet Revolver vs. STP Post by: RichardNixon on August 17, 2004, 01:20:56 AM I am a massive STP fan, but I gotta say, I think Contraband is better than anything STP ever put out.

Not surprsingly, 'cause Slash doesn't play on any STP album. ;D Title: Re: Velvet Revolver vs. STP Post by: Dave_Rose on August 17, 2004, 07:52:21 AM Still comparing I see
Title: Re: Velvet Revolver vs. STP Post by: tomass74 on August 18, 2004, 01:30:56 AM I am a massive STP fan, but I gotta say, I think Contraband is better than anything STP ever put out. I wonder what the views of other HUGE STP fans are. I was not a huge fan but liked them alot. Enough to have seen them twice in comcert and buy 3 of their CD's anyway. I think I like Contraband better than their stuff. But CORE was definately pretty damn classic. Title: Re: Velvet Revolver vs. STP Post by: Wheres Izzy on August 18, 2004, 01:36:59 AM Contraband is a much better complete album than anything STP ever released however No song on it is as good as some of the STP classics.

Very true statement except You Got No Right and Slither you can argue are better than some stp classics Title: Re: Velvet Revolver vs. STP Post by: tomass74 on August 18, 2004, 01:46:36 AM Contraband is a much better complete album than anything STP ever released however No song on it is as good as some of the STP classics. Not so sure about that. Title: Re: Velvet Revolver vs. STP Post by: RichardNixon on August 18, 2004, 01:49:56 AM I think the great songs on Contraband are up their with STP's classics:
Big Machine Set Me Free YGNR Slither LTA The other songs are all solid. With STP, there were about five great songs per disc, and a bunch of solid ones (not fillers) but solid. Title: Re: Velvet Revolver vs. STP Post by: Wheres Izzy on August 18, 2004, 11:31:30 AM well I meant that for me personally. And in no way was I knocking contraband which I feel doesn't get nearly enough credit on this board. I just meant certain songs STP had were just to me better but they never made an album as good as contraband. I loved STP but I thought they sometimes had filler songs which contraband doesn't. Anyone think theres a chance or VR doin 'trippin on a hole in a paper heart in concert? lol I would love that. Also I would love to hear slash do the solo for lady picture show, I bet he would fuckin wail on it.

Title: Re: Velvet Revolver vs. STP Post by: kj_jive on August 19, 2004, 11:01:42 PM STP's "Purple" is far superior to the somewhat mediocre "Contraband" in my opionion. Classics like Vasoline, Interstate love song, still remains, pretty penny etc. all beat the pants off of Contraband's onslaught of sound-alikes. Purple has so much variety and catchy unique songs that its not hard to see which one is better. I like Contraband...but it just doesn't stand out, seems pretty mediocre and flat to me (let the flames begin) :nervous:

I like Purple a lot, but I think Contraband is a stronger album. Title: Re: Velvet Revolver vs. STP Post by: Top-Hatted One on August 19, 2004, 11:56:42 PM haha Pretty Penny
better than YGNR, LTA, FTP??????????? uh huh yeah right : ok: Title: Re: Velvet Revolver vs. STP Post by: kj_jive on August 20, 2004, 01:03:46 AM I'd take a fart in a bag over Fall to Pieces

Enough to have seen them twice in comcert and buy 3 of their CD's anyway. I think I like Contraband better than their stuff. But CORE was definately pretty damn classic. As a HUGE STP fan, i'd have to say Core, for me at least, is their weakest album. With that said, i do enjoy it greatly regardless. But i'd have to say I think the 5 unreleased STP songs posted on BelowEmpty.com are better than anything VR has done, with possibly the exception of YGNR. I like Contraband a lot, but they have a long way to go before they top STP or Gn'r for me. Title: Re: Velvet Revolver vs. STP Post by: Top-Hatted One on August 22, 2004, 11:15:05 AM no way!!! I will admit "You Can't drive me away" is amazing but none of those other unreleased STP songs come close to VR!
