Read Full BioStone Temple Pilots is the sixth studio album by American rock band Stone Temple Pilots. The album was released worldwide from May 21 through May 27, 2010, and is the band's first album since 2001's Shangri-La Dee Da. The album is the result of the band's reunion, which occurred in April 2008 with their North American tour. After Stone Temple Pilots had begun playing together, the band decided to record again, but a lawsuit filed by Atlantic Records on June 12, 2008, made the sixth album an uncertainty. Atlantic eventually withdrew the lawsuit, and the band's attorney called the legal situation a "misunderstanding". This is the last album to feature vocalist Scott Weiland before he was fired from the band in 2013 and died in 2015.
Robert DeLeo, against Atlantic Records' wishes, insisted that he and his brother Dean DeLeo produce the record themselves, which began production in early 2009. Because recording took place during breaks in the band's touring schedule, production took nearly ten months to complete. Three studios were used simultaneously, including Robert's home studio and Eric Kretz's Bomb Shelter Studios. Scott Weiland recorded vocals at his own Lavish Studios. Don Was was brought in as an additional producer to help keep the band's separate recording sessions in sync, as well as to work closely with Weiland during the recording of his vocals. The album was completed in December 2009, and mixing and mastering were finished by February 2010.
The album received generally favorable reviews. Most critics agreed that Stone Temple Pilots was heavily inspired by country and rock music from the 1960s and 1970s. The band confirmed these assertions and that lyricists like Bob Dylan, and guitarists like Speedy West and Brad Whitford were influences. The album was promoted during the band's performances at music festivals and headlining concerts, as well as in interviews with music websites and magazines, including Billboard and Spin, and radio and television talk shows. "Between the Lines" was the first single, released on March 22. The second and third singles, "Take a Load Off" and "Cinnamon", were released later in the year. Stone Temple Pilots sold 62,000 copies in its first week and peaked at number two on the Billboard 200.

Stone Temple Pilots Lyrics
Lovely disguise, read between the lines
You rock the magic plane with no abbreviation
Three, four you sell what you bought
And there ain't no magic pen to get back what you lost
I like it when we talk about love
I like it when we talk about love
You always were my favorite drug
Even when we used to take drugs
Even when we used to take
Even when we used to take
Even when we used to take
Even when we used to take
Penguins don't fly
Crocodile Sunday smile
Really like to fish but don't like superficial people
Shoe store heard it all before
From pearly whites to pearly gates
What do we have to argue 'bout
I like it when we talk about love
I like it when we talk about love
You always were my favorite drug
Even when we used to take drugs
Even when we used to take
Even when we used to take
Even when we used to take
Even when we used to take
Leave me all alone before
(Get out the way)
Never did what she was told
(Get out the way)
Seems to play at time of war
(Get out the way)
Less is big and listens more?
Lovely disguise, read between the lines
You rock the magic plane with no abbreviation
Three, four you sell what you bought
And there ain't no magic pen to get back what you lost
I like it when we talk about love
I like it when we talk about love
You always were my favorite drug
Even when we used to take drugs
Even when we used to take
Even when we used to take
Even when we used to take
Even when we used to take

Scott Weiland is a special dude
He has so many different voices
jordan
His singing was superb from the start. He continued to diversify with each year; but he sang differently to fit the song as far back as Core — example Creep.
