Negative Positive
Title: A more than solid follow up to "Purple"
Review: After STP delivered their best album with "Purple", they returned two years later with "Tiny Music...", an album that displays the band going through stylistic changes. The grungey sound that STP got labeled with in the early nineties is almost non-existant, and is replaced with an almost new-agey, melodic, yet still hard rocking sound. And as with any other STP album, "Tiny Music..." isn't without it's share of hits; including "Big Bang Baby", "Lady Picture Show", and the rocking "Trippin' On a Hole in a Paper Heart". Other great songs include "Pop's Love Suicide", "Tumble in the Rough", and "Adhesive"; most of which display references lyrically to vocalist Scott Weiland's drug problems. All in all, "Tiny Music..." is one of STP's better albums (although not as great as "Purple"), and is some of the mid-nineties best alternative rock out there.
