I Listen to the First 3 Songs from Stone Temple Pilots Core Album For The First Time! Music Reaction

[@davidwalker6357]

This album is so underrated! This is one of the key albums that changed me into a rock/metalhead when I was young. Great reaction dude.

[@MuckoMan]

Still my favorite band from when they came out. I listen to them at least once a day. To me they have a Zeppelin sound if you are deep enough into Zeppelin to hear it.

[@BooksNCamping]

💯 facts!!

[@Straight_Az]

@MuckoMan without a doubt. Their versatility puts them way ahead of the "big guys" of that time period. Imo they're better than them all. If you listen closely and break down their music you realize how complex it really is...just amazing talent all around.

[@kathyedleman633]

All three songs were played in heavy rotation on rock stations. ❤

[@RCTPatriot75]

Core is criminally underrated and under mentioned.

[@FINNSTIGAT0R]

Maybe against the even more popular bands at the time, but STP was still huge, and is remembered today right after the biggest 3 of Nirvana, AIC and Pearl Jam

[@Straight_Az]

​@FINNSTIGAT0R but like you just said.."behind those 3". Go track for track with Ten...it's not even close imo. Than throw in purple...the complexity of their music is unmatched even with the other greats of that time period. I've never seen a band have so many pre, post choruses, bridges...their versatility separates them from the pack

[@heatherandrews7768]

Watching you has brought me back to my 90's teen years! Lovin it!

[@gforce4063]

One of the greatest singers of all time

[@UESide]

God I f’n love this. I was 13 when it came out. Rock was so much more mainstream back then but this was so heavy and melodic mixed with Scott’s insane vocal capability which made it stand out. I suggest moving in chronological order for the remaining albums. You need to see how their sound changes through the 90s.

[@dkrom]

All three good songs, Sex Type being my favorite also. Though, I think my all time favorite from this album was Plush.

[@Nightrelic]

The Deleo brothers have an extensive palette of influences to draw from. It shows when you move from one album to another and even from song to song on each album. And then throw in one of the best front men of all time- Scott had an extensive palette for his vocals too. It’s hard to beat them.

[@josephsagona76]

i get such joy out of these kids today that are discovering the music I grew up on and really getting into it, it makes me smile!

[@mikeballentine1984]

I was obsessed with STP in my high school days. 99-02 and beyond.

[@blakeroberti5982]

I would bet my bottom dollar, you'd love " the Pixies".😊

[@MontanaFree]

Dude, you have a new fan. Really enjoying your reactions to my favs!

[@egotrpn]

Just because of this reaction, I am subscribing. Shirley Temple Privates!

[@coreytrayn]

stone temple pilots might be one of my favorite bands, purple is nuts good. theyre first few albums are realluy something, i even like the stalker song. scott weiland was just a weird cool front man

[@CJ-Fischer]

I seen STP 20 years ago…Great show…amazing band for anytime not just the grunge era. Special talent will never be forgotten

[@JamesJones-xg2lt]

This album was one of many that I purchased in 1992/93 on the strength of one song... then blown away by the entire Album!

[@stephentierney9266]

The live performances(twice) with Weiland climbing the light towers with the megaphone the most memorable in my life.

[@jamesdaves2169]

When to hear the rest of the album? The last song is epic

[@nbussar1]

This was the first CD I ever owned and I listened to it on repeat during the entire road trip my family took. Still have it.

[@Baldyjock4846]

"drippy goodness" great choice of words lol.

[@jimkat2]

I havent heard this album in years before today when I played it on Spotify. Imagine my surprise when I stumbled across this reaction to it. I dig this album!

[@robobikenobi]

Loving your Grunge journey! I'm a STP and Alice and Chains kid from early 90s, but of course I loved so much more from that era. Keep it up, and thank you!

[@felixnorman9562]

Bought the CD in 1997 I think, still got it!

[@Hippydaze35]

Oh man definitely hear sm southern rock in their sound esp in wicked garden

[@darrendixon3191]

This is my favorite STP tunes. Its like you said, It is their raw sound. The ultimate grunge.

[@unosturgis]

lol the lil johnny thing. It is funny because my friend had it on tape, we were about 12 or so. Also, Dead and Bloated sounds killer with a subwoofer. That riff on the postchorus of Wicked Garden is so tough, I could tell you enjoyed that too. haha Core is supposed to mean the apple from adam and eve, so Wicked Garden could very well be about that.

[@mr.smithgnrsmith7808]

Best 90s band

[@deadlyredly1]

Gotta say, I love this "First 3 songs" angle. What a great way to form an opinion!!!

[@lowellwebster4198]

I seen STP in concert about a month after this album came out.

[@jeffhinkel7309]

I saw STP open for Robert Plant back when the were just making it big.

[@Straight_Az]

As a diehard stp fan since day 1 seeing people still discovering how amazing they were warms the heart.

[@karlaklaus-hoobler5685]

Scott's Christmas album is amazing. What a crooner.

[@rhinno1969]

Crackerman was always my STP favorite 🤘

[@danb5944]

These songs bring me back in time too when i was 17 i loved this album

[@j.t.3798]

Completely 🔥

[@dbcooper7477]

There’s STP, then there’s the other grunge bands. STP will always reign supreme.

[@blizzardofodds4220]

STP was great when they came out with this album. I seen them in concert on the purple album and they sounded just like the CD. They were clear, loud and just great performers. Scott was great live as well. Scotts drug addiction unfortunately like most people in that situation finally got the best of him. They were great.

[@greggibson33]

Pilots ALWAYS flew high.

[@marshalmagooo3899]

Core was really created in the late 80s as Mighty Joe Young... total rock... released the same day as Dirt in September 1992

[@ilusionclan]

there is no fucking way that dirt and core released on the same day. you guys in the 90s had it good.

[@Straight_Az]

Thank you for this..people that call STP copycats don't know what they're talking about. Several songs were demos they submitted to Atlantic years before PJ SG Nirvana released. And they're better 🤘

[@thesoundlikechameleons2082]

Phenomenal debut. My brother brought me it in 1992 on cassette I think. R.I.P. Scott Weiland.

[@darylbehm7657]

It be da bossa Nova

[@1224Peterson]

I remember when this album came out, blew me away with the first track. Saw them many times, but I remember the Purple tour best because that was their first headliner and they DESTROYED. In the 90's I went to countless shows and they stood out as one of the best live acts I've ever seen I'll never forget it. It's really a shame that Scott couldn't pull it together they could have made so much more music.....STP is one of the bands I really miss. Don't forget to listen to Tiny Music as well it's their best album imo.

[@timcardona9962]

Core is great and it definitely hits harder but it's also way more derivative than Purple, which is where they really found their sound. There are some great songs on Core but some of the hooks sound lifted from other bands like Nirvana and others like Van Halen haha. Nice production too

[@chrissnyder7845]

Where has this dude been?

[@Redd_Fawkes]

I loaded this song and Crackerman to my Playstation back in the day to play Gran Turismo 2.

[@dkmcbigsley]

Now I realize I haven't listened to this album in WAY too long

[@6intheFix]

Poor tortured soul.

[@cristianperezrozas3625]

STP are the Best!!!!!!!

[@ShadowBanned904]

I miss the grunge era of music. Most consider Stone Temple Pilots to be "post-grunge". But STP had that legit grunge angst. Unpopular opinion...vocally, Scott Weiland was better then Eddie Vedder, which is a common comparison. That's about all...

[@Straight_Az]

@ShadowBanned904 not unpopular to me. He blows Eddie out of the water! Really all of them because he's much more polished and versatile.

[@gforce4063]

Meisterwork

[@betomogollan8113]

core BEST álbum stp 👌🏾👌🏾

[@Spadeboi]

Bro you need to listen to tiny music

[@chapmancarruthers]

Always my fav even though it got raked over the coals by the critics when it came out.

[@andyh4224]

Do the rest of the album!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@debjorgo]

I forgot how good this album is. The only song I recognized by the name was Sex Type Thing and was sort of thinking it was the only good song on it. Nice to find out I remembered wrong.

[@darylbehm7657]

Lot of people wanted to compare them to pearl jam who had the same producer

[@benkramper872]

You need to do the rest of this album, Cover to Cover not a bad song

[@rogerstanley3005]

The chorus is like pre chorus of smells like teen spirit

[@gforce4063]

Green Day ?

[@allengator1914]

Green Day? Seriously Dude?

[@Yakeinna1]

I thought the same thing. Wth

[@nielgregory108]

"Grunge" is NOT a thing!! I'll bet you have no clue what they mean by "grunge". It has NOTHING to do with the music. Critics didn't know how to describe it, so they described the MEMBERS of the bands!!! Calling THEM "grungy" and that was taken as disrespectful then and still is today!! STOP with the "grunge" bullshit!! There is no such thing.

[@jenifferjones]

John how dare you compare Scott to Nirvana who are definately grunge. And Stp more animalistic rock. I couldnt imagine kirt singing sex type thing and meaning it. Plus he was definately a showman and dancer. Kirt nahhh. Ok I'll break it down Scott was hot, Kirt was not! Except maybe to Courtney but I doubt it. But Rip anyway both ya loved ya!

[@NuterButer]

WDYM KURT WAS A BADDDIEEE!!

[@davidward9737]

Scott Weiland. Not alot of love for STP

[@gunkyzip]

Your lack of basic knowledge is irritating. You literally had to look up things. Do your work before listening.

[@CharlesTRose]

the entire album is really good, a bit under rated IMO
