Purple

Stone Temple Pilots

Sun-drenched alternative rock that trades Seattle sludge for California psychedelia. A masterclass in melodic basslines and 70s-inspired vocal crooning.

It's the ultimate 90s road trip record that's actually way weirder and more psychedelic than you remember.

A sun-drenched, psychedelic haze masking a deep, restless melancholy.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The effortless transition from the acoustic slide intro to the full-band swing of Interstate Love Song.

The heavy, sludge-like descent of the main riff in Silvergun Superman that feels like it's pulling the listener underwater.

The sudden, jarring shift into the hidden lounge track My Second Album after the emotional weight of Kitchenware & Candybars.
