Wow really love the new album, just got it yesterday.  Huckleberry Crumble is nice and First Kiss On Mars also.  I like the majority of stuff on it.

I'm somewhat the same way; at least when it comes to STP.  I think the only album of theirs I instantly liked was No.4    ...the "B side" of their new album is particularly hard for me to figure out.  Hopefully I'll get into it more upon repeated listens.

yeah me too. just like most of their albums its totally not what i expected. I'm sure it'll grow on me but there seems to be something off about some of these songs. it might have  to do with the fact that the music wasnt written with them together, they were done with the band seperate from scott in different studios, Scott's vocals are basically pasted over the music. i was so dissapointed when i heard that this was how most of the album was written.

here is a quote from robert:
"Scott wasn't really there for the creation of these songs, musically. We kind of guessed our way through it . . . The songs that were sent over to [Weiland] were pretty much in a completed demo form with a scratch melody on there, and Scott has the option to use the melody or not." [Credit: Billboard]

One of the best shows I've been to in awhile.

Well, Weiland's lyrics are as baffling as ever, but overall, not a bad album at all IMO. I think it's a 'grower' though. After the first listen, the last song Maver is definitely the standout for me (and not just because it's the last song I heard ). The two before it, Fast As I Can and First Kiss On Mars, are very good too.

Scott sounds a bit like an American Johnny Rotten on Hickory Dichotomy....

[uzisuicide2002]

This new album is fuckin awesome. Great rock n roll album. You can hear the stone, led zepp, and aerosmith in alot of the songs. The're best album since Core.

It sounds like a Bowie imitation to me. A silly one at that.

Better than Purple?

I thought exactly the same lol

I'm liking the album more and more with every listen.

[GnFnR87]

purple is their masterpiece imo.

this albums really growing on me but its no where near purple. but still turning out to be a great rock album

Hazy Daze is so fucking awesome.

take a load off has one of the best anthemic STP  choruses but the "Take a load off yeah" lines  before the chorus get kind of annoying and redundant.
