I like(d) them. Hope they continue in one form or another.
On the upside, STP are back together.

Yeah I quite liked stone temple pilots, I think Scott’s voice suited their style a little more.
I was a fan of VR for their first album, I liked the single from the ast one but as a whole album I thougt it was quite weak

I don’t think Slash has come close to living up to his potential since he left GnR ,which is a ridiculous situation really, and hiring Scott Weiland was never going to help that situation.
Sorry, STP fans, but I just can’t stand the guy and the best thing ever to happen to his stay in VR is that it’s ended.

VR were never as good as they should have been. Which is a shame. Slash is an excellent guitarist.

I reckon they should get a better singer, someone who isnt a complete druggie. Or maybe just carry on as a four piece ?

I’m probably on my own here but I thought the first album was pretty good - I think Weiland has a great voice…
I also think STP are ace and hope there is a UK tour to come!
Booya - there I said it :)

im actually quite gutted, guns n roses were a pile of wank, but these guys were much better, 1st album was excellent, 2nd was pretty good, i think they should find another singer, theyre too good to split up.

big bag of bollocks. its as bad, if not worse than the traversty that was audioslave. They gave me an ulcer just thinking about the music let alone hearing it.
But yay for STP, they were fucking cool.

The first 2 or 3 STP albums were great but then I lost interest abit. The later ones didn’t really grab me - only a couple of decent songs per album and then well, what was “Shangri-la-de-fucking-da” about? Just seemed weak and boring to me that record.
Never been that interested in VR and I have to say, I’m abit confused by the fact that I now don’t care if STP have re-formed (I think I should, but just don’t feel it), which is a shame as I loved them in t’good old days. Still I’d probably buy a new album just for completeness.
I’ve contributed nothing here haven’t I? Bugger. *goes back to wine glass and talks in there*

Duh! I almost wanted to type something about ‘not wanting to patronise you, blah blah blah’ - but to be honest my intentions are quite the opposite.
You clearly are too young and naive to know what the fuck you are on about if you are making statements like “VR > G’n’R”
Haha! :D

haha :D fair enough dude,i think VR have a far better singer, and the riffs are better, im more into modern music rather than the 80’s stuff, i admit g’n’r have a couple of decent songs, but after listening to a couple of songs off chinese democracy no wonder slash and co wanted to venture into somet else.
did that make sense?

Liked the first VR album, but the second one was pretty much kack.
Saw them live twice and they were deffo a good live band, so is kind of a shame in that respect.
I hope that STP reform for good as I muched preferred their output overall. As for a GNR reunion, give Axl another 10 years to finish Chinese Democracy first…
I read rumors that they are going to have a TV show to find the new VR frontman - that is where I will lose all interest in them…
