Top 10 Reasons Why Stone Temple Pilots Suck Even More Now Than Before
10. Scott Weiland isn’t shooting heroin anymore (presumably).
9. Since they’re active again, their shitty songs are as ubiquitous on radio as they were before. And, for some reason, it’s impossible to get through a nationally televised MLB game without hearing them.
8. Now they’re on Facebook.
7. Prior to the recent release of their new studio album, they’d been pushing a greatest-hits album called Buy This. And it was only available at Best Buy.
6. Thanks to their performance at South by Southwest this year, the festival has officially jumped the shark.
5. Jim Morrison and Kurt Cobain are rolling around in their graves again.
4. Good luck finding a summer rock fest that doesn’t have them on the bill.
3. Their new pseudo-neo-hippie album marketing campaign revolves around fleur de lis and a hand gesturing the peace sign.
2. Kinda takes the fun out of the Pavement reunion knowing that Stone Temple Pilots are back in the game too.
1. It’s 2010. And sadly, we still have to live with a band that goes by the name “Stone Temple Pilots.”

Sorry to break it to you dude, but SXSW jumped the shark over a decade ago. Totally agree that STP sucks though – always have, always will. At least if Weiland isn’t shooting dope anymore we run less of a chance of countless dumbasses idolizing him as “another great artist taken before his time”…

What i do not understood is in reality how you’re not really much more neatly-preferred than you might be now.
You are very intelligent. You know thus significantly when it
comes to this subject, made me personally believe it from so many varied
angles. Its like women and men are not interested unless it’s something to do with Lady gaga!
Your personal stuffs excellent. Always deal with it up!

Couldn’t agree more. Thanks for the laugh.
STP are like a social disease that just refuses to go away.
And, like any social disease, it sucked from day one.
Just wish someone could come up with an antibiotic that would finally kill it – once and for all.

Geez dude, your one fuckin Negative Critic!! I like these guys and theyre type of Hard Rock music. Very 1970s ish. Dont here to many good Rock bands anymore, just that complete garbage they call Rap, and plastic R+B. Music really isnt too good anymore. And its more than me being 60 now!! Music is unoriginal, and So plastic, anymore, with a few exceptions!!!
