The band quickly got to work on their debut album Core, which happened to be produced by Brendan O’Brien who coincidentally enough, would work with grunge acts pearl jam and soundgarden. They would eventually settle on the name Stone Temple Pilots and they signed to Atlantic Records. They gained a pretty big following, but soon changed their name after a blues musician was found to already own the rights to their moniker. Stone Temple Pilots roots date back to the city of Los Angeles where they formed in 1989 under the monicker Mighty Joe Young. Stone Temple Pilots were one of the biggest bands of the 90’s and early 2000’s, but to critics they were the pariahs of the new alternative rock movement at the time. Don’t forget to hit the bell notification icon to be notified every time i put out a new video on my channel. The Weiland cum Vedder of early STP is most evident on “Interstate Love Song”, a song that until writing this article I thought actually WAS a Pearl Jam Song.What’s going on my fellow rock n’ rollers. The inner child of Stone Temple Pilots is Iron Maiden, and that kid just won't quit howlingNow I can’t see for the life of me how the Maiden comparison is a) derogatory or b) valid, but other critics rightly lambasted STP for aping Vedder’s trademark ‘manly man-drawl’ – a drawl still lamentably echoed by Nickleback.
"Plush" devoured radio with its mix of guitar grandiosity and woolly philosophizing "Wicked Garden," another big single, waxes equally pompous. So thickly the sweat drips that when Weiland, resident shaman, gruffly mourns, "I'm half the man I used to be" ("Creep"), one shudders. With Eric Kretz bashing the skins like a Bonham manqué and axman Robert DeLeo ladling murk, Core is a testosteronefest. To wit, Rolling Stone’s review of STP’s first album, “Core”: The band also suffered at the hands of critics. Scott Weiland’s battle with that kryptonite of late 20th century grunge proved to be the band’s greatest stumbling block and the band perennially canceled or cut short touring during their career.
Eyeliner on men was not part of my universe, and, though I didn’t quite know what heroin addiction looked like, I knew enough to conclude that it must have some connection to cable television. I remember STP because Scott Weiland scared me. I’m sure I saw others earlier, at friends houses say, but I can’t quite remember them. Elated, the first music video I can remember seeing is “Big Bang Baby”.

Winter 1996 brought with it three months of free Videotron cable, Musiqueplus, and the music video. Cable was doubly wasteful in my father’s eyes because not only was it a needless thirty-dollar luxury but it also threatened to prevent me from being otherwise productive (playing outside, doing homework, cleaning room, you remember the litany…). I was painfully aware both of the fact that we could afford, but still didn't buy, cable and of the fact that cable was the only way to watch music videos.
My father, grateful though I am to him for my first concert (the Stones), tempered his Jagger with Weber.
