Vinyl LP pressing. When an album peaks at #3 on the Billboard Top 200, amasses a large fanbase worldwide, and quickly becomes certified platinum, it's clear it's something worth plugging into. With their debut album, the socially-charged Core, San Diego's Stone Temple Pilots deliver a hard-hitting grunge record that delves into dark lyrical territory, driven home by Scott Weiland's powerful vocals. With hit singles InchPlushInch and InchS*x Type ThingInch going on to become definitive songs of the 1990s, the band garnered a great deal of media attention - at times incredibly negative - for their whirlwind success. Rolling Stone readers named the group the Best New Band of 1992, whereas it's staff christened them the Worst New Band. Despite their polarizing reception, the Pilots would secure a Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance for InchPlushInch and Core would be certified eight times platinum in 2001. Songwriting, you could say, is the band's definite core.
Asteroid #4 have created dimensions within their soundscapes by delicately weaving a balanced interplay between their instrumentals, and those songs with vocals... while underlying both, is a solid percussion, onto which they manage to construct these floating musical visions that are laced with middle eastern meandering sitars, destined to administer a pleasant dose of psychedelia, enough to last you through the night. Though unlike a chemical adventure, you can get back into this bit of wanderlust and beauty anytime you wish, where I assure you, that on each outing, you will be treated to something new, shown uncharted side-streets, and harvest moon visions of rapture. This LP is pressed on 140 gram Oxblood vinyl with a download card and packaged with a gatefold sleeve. Album Tracks 1. 1. the River 2. 2. Rukma Vimana 3. 3. Ghosts of Dos Erres 4. 4. the Windmill of the Autumn Sky 5. 5. Mount Meru 6. 6. Back of Your Mind 7. 7. Ropeless Free Climber 8. 8. Ode to Cosmo 9. 9. Revolution Prevail 10. 10. Yuba
