Free Music Review: NEVER LOST THEIR EDGE....
Hit: 5 Stars
STP were one of my favorite bands in the nineties, so when I was walking down the street one day in 2001, and saw a poster outside of the record store for a new album, I immediately went inside and bought it, with no expectations whatsoever.
No.4 was the bands comeback release about a year and a half earlier, and although I wasn't really crazy about that album, the fact that they had managed to push out one more was very cool, and I was very pleased with this album (the last release- who knows, maybe yet another comeback album in the future?...I heard that they may be touring again... that would be sweet!)
Shangri La Di Da showcases alot of new styles that I believe the band had probably been eager to get into some songs. With Scott Weiland having been somewhat of a loose screw throughout the bands entire career, it probably wasn't easy, but while the wheels were spinning, I guess they all figured that they needed to get it down, while the getting down was good.
Songs like TRANSMISSIONS FROM A LONELY ROOM show that these guys never lost any of their original edge... they just like to experiment all the time. There are lots of different styles being presented here, with the focus shifting to each members talents. The first five tracks are all catchy and great tunes. There are a few scattered ones in the middle, but as a whole I find this to be a very enjoyable album, and I do not think it is one to just toss aside. If you liked STP in their prime years, than you will like this one just as much. Five Stars.
Shangri-La Dee Da Poster
Shangri-La Dee Da may not be STP's most commercial outing, but the disc's 13 tracks comprise a satisfying aural journey despite its lack of quick-fix hits along the lines of "Sex Type Thing" and "Wicked Garden." From the dark, grinding rhythms and obfuscated vocals of "Dumb Love" to the lovely "Wonderful" to the buoyant power pop of "Days of the Week" to the edgy and disturbing "Coma," myriad facets of the lineup's musical temperament are explored. "Bi-Polar Bear" hints at STP's humor, though Shangri-La is by no means lightweight; singer Scott Weiland's passionate and personal lyrics--especially on a touching ode to his infant son, "A Song for Sleeping"--are affecting and apt. The fifth outing from this California crew who've survived grunge and thrived in its aftermath is masterful and mature effort from a band who've spied some light at the end of their tunnel. --Katherine TurmanAlternative Rock Music CDs
