Was this review helpful? Yes - NoMy ratings and opinion,song-by-song out
1
Press Play
77
Instrumental album opener, using guitar harmonics.
2
Pop's Love Suicide
84
Raw rock with catchy hooks.
3
Tumble in the Rough
78
Another good STP song, midtempo and raw.
4
Big Bang Baby
86
More raw rock with perfect catchy hooks.
5
Lady Picture Show
83
A Classic, very Beatles circa Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band / Penny Lane era.
6
And So I Know
68
Neat Beach Boys-style ballad with high surf-harmonies and jazzy guitar solo.
7
Trippin' On A Hole In A Paper Heart
91
Perfect rock song - great chorus and solo.
8
Art School Girl
85
Another great monster rock song with riffs, catchy melody and drumming thunder in the chorus (though it's more like the Police versus Joe Jackson in the verse). Great song, with a floaty bridge section, Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys-style.
9
Adhesive
66
Average by STP standards, but good.
10
Ride the Cliche
79
A rock song that parodies itself, but is very cleverly done.
11
Daisy
52
An instrumental, done on guitar.
12
Seven Caged Tigers
78
The album closer is again a great melody and feel, to the same effect as the Urge Overkill "Saturation" album. "Feel-good" rock music, great twin guitars and hooks.
Average song score for the album: 77 / 100Was this review helpful? Yes - Nohmmm...
well, its ok but ive definitley heard better
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoAwesome departure from Core
I enjoy every song there............
They are so versatile, it is amazing.Was this review helpful? Yes - Nodamn fine album
Actually it's not that tiny in terms of quality. While people may not hear "Sex Type Thing Part 2" or "Vasoline Part 2" in here, the tracks are quite good. Lyrically there's plenty of that wacky, obscure and cryptic writing we all love Scott for, Dean's guitar is still inspiring, Robert gets funky, and Eric somehow holds it all in time. All in all a very good album. Must hear tracks: Big Bang Baby, Lady Picture Show, Trippin on a Hole..., Art School Girl. Oh
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoIt's diffent, not too bad
This album doesnt compare to STP's previous albums Core and Purple, but it isnt bad. Its actually kinda catchy and has a few really good songs.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoIt Grows On You Like The Plague
I first bought this album the day it was released. At first I thought it was ok but not excellent. Then a few years ago I listened to it again all the way through and its pure genious my fav STP album now. Tiny Music.. is a feel good album. When you listen to it its pure musical bliss. If you don't have this record but it now.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoThis record
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoNot a welcome diversion. . .
Tiny Music..., Stone Temple Pilots's third album, stands out like a sore thumb from the catalog, dishing out a more melodic, low-fi sound that becomes as a dissapointing change for fans of the band's more hard-rocking tunes that are included on STP's other albums. This album has its high points, with Pop's Love Suicide, Big Bang Baby, Lady Picture Show, and Trippin' On a Hole In a Paper Heart. However, as a whole, the album lacks the power, passion, and lyrical prowess that we see on the other albums. It's not a must-buy, but for fans who do purchase it, check out the aforementioned tracks, and include Tumble in the Rough and Seven Caged Tigers among your most oft-listened to songs.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoRe: soo beautiful
STP's most recent album, no.4 was so beautiful!! I knew of their other in the past, but wasn't really interested in the whole grunge scene, so never really payed attention. After hearing this album, I immediately ran out to buy every one they've ever made. Their sound is definately unique and extremely emotional. I understand Scott's lyric's, and absolutely empathize with his longing,pain, and overwhelming feelings.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoIncredible...
Scott Weiland and Company finally prove they have their own sound with this intelligent and provacative album. From the melodic bittersweet Adhesive to the drugged out rocker Big Bang Baby, STP show a depth of field that few rock bands will ever have... And to all of you who say this album was terrible, I pity you... You don't know what you're missing.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoDifferent
this album is definately a departure from the previous two albums, but is a great album. songs like tumble in the rough, big bang baby, art school girl, and trippin' on a hole make this album great
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoNice
Nice
Was this review helpful? Yes - Noawesome as always
well if u r waitin 4 these guys to let u down cos of weiland's drugs u got another thing comin!! they rock!! not as good as the 1st 2 but still mind blowin!!
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoExcellent album!
This was a really good album from STP. My favorite songs on it are Big Bang Baby, Lady Picture Show, Trippin on a hole in a Paper Heart, Tumble in the Rough, and Art School Girlfriend. Their latest album No.4 is even better.
Was this review helpful? Yes - Nostp is simply incredible
stp's third effort is decidedly different than their other two, but that's what is great about em. they got a lot of criticism that they sounded like rip-offs of pearl jam and nirvana, but even most of those agree that they were wrong. this one is influenced more with pop rock than hard rock, but it still has plenty of great music. even though big bang baby and lady picture show are considered the best songs on the album, i still have to say the ultra-catchy, fast-paced trippin on a hole in a paper heart is the best track. other great songs include adhesive, pop's love suicide, art school girl, and tumble in the rough
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoUneven, but decent.
A somewhat disappointing follow-up to "Purple". 2 or 3 standout cuts, a few forgettable ones.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoDamn
Weiland was definetly high when they made this record. Compared to this, I would prefer they sound like Pearl Jam rip-offs.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoAn homage to real music
STP delivers in this fantastic album, by far their best, next to Weilands solo project these are the best lyrics he has ever written. He gives grace to the idea of a superstar. The antistar himself combines rock with campire melodies and an eerie electronic awareness that times they are a changin' without StoneTemple Pilots where would we be, still listening to bush and other crap like that but for the most part I'm sure that true musicians can enjoy the wonder and genius that prevails throughout this entire album. A truly stunning work by a truly timeless band... simply amazing I love Adhesive and Seven Caged Tigers Press Play the whole damn album is like a little piece the bands soul for only 14.99 and well worth it. Thank you STP for saving true musicians music, the production aspect and live elements as well are just phenomenal.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoArtisticly their best
Tiny Music is STP at their most creative, imaginative and gutsiest. "Lady picture show" may be the bands' best song. "Big bang baby" kicks ass (and rolling stones' ass!). There is a more sensetive side to the music than on previous albums which is a good thing. This is in no way a dissapointing follow-up to "purple".
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoA very different STP
Let me put it this way, this is STP's worst album, and it's still pretty damn good. It is large step back from their grunge past, but it still rocks. "Trippin..." and "Adhesive" are the albums strongest cuts, but "Ride the Cliche" and "Tumble in the Rough" are definetly songs that deserve repeated listens. If it weren't for the two instrumental tracks, "Lady Picture Show," and "Art School Girlfriend" this album would be amazing.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoIt's alright.
It doesn't compare to their previous two but it does have its moments. Trippin on a Hole in a Paper Heart, Big Bang Baby, and Lady Picture Show offer enjoyable sounds.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoJUST FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This may have been ths last great album that STP ever made. before their commercial flop "4" this had lots of singles that made it is a must own...........
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoOh My GOD !
It's a wonderfull record of record.
BUY IT ! BUY IT ! BUY IT!Was this review helpful? Yes - NoWhat the hell happened to them?
This album was probably intended to shake off all those PJ comparisons, but it doesn't work for them. The two gawdawful instrumentals and 'Pop's Love Suicide' plain suck. At least they didn't go too far from their original sound. 'Ride the Cliche' and 'Lady Picture Show' will relieve STP fans and 'Trippin' On A Hole In A Paper Heart' and 'Adhesive' show off a newer, but still likeable sound. I still like Purple more.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoTHIS ALBUM TITE YO
THIS BEEZ A BOMB AZZ ALBUM
Was this review helpful? Yes - Noi love it
this cd is great. awesome lyrics and very catchy tunes
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoI told you five or four times!
This is a cool album and a complete piss take of the Rolling Stones. "Trippin' On a Hole in a Paper Heart" is probually my favourite track (with it's Pink Floyd like sounds) but it's very hard to put your finger on it. It's an album you have to really listen to all in one go.
In short excellent.Was this review helpful? Yes - NoYet another great album
Once again STP proves to be one of the most talented bands in history. Tiny Music has a form totally different from previous STP releases. Songs like Lady Picture Show, Art School Girl, and Daisy show that they can write good songs in any style, while songs like Big Bang Baby and Trippin' On A Hole In A Paper Heart continue to display Weiland's great talent for writing lyrics. This is possibly their best album yet.
