Music reviews of No. 4

Music Review: No, 4 gets 5
Rating: 5 Stars

I didn't know this album even came out until Jan.2000. I dismissed it as another attempt at a comeback not worthy of even giving it a listen to. However, I was wrong because on this one they finally found their sound. After the first 3 albums they found the right formula with this one. It has the tight production of the "Tiny Vatican" album, but also the grunge of the first 2 albums. The impressive thing here is Scott Weiland's vocals as he doesn't sound anything like Layne Staley, or Eddie Vedder here. His vocal range is actually good on these tracks. It starts off with "Drown" which is one of the grunge cuts, "Heaven and Hot Rods" is some more of the tight production of "Tiny Vatican". However, the honors go to "Sour Girl", and "Glide" as I heard "Sour Girl" on Real Radio 104 one weekend, and that inspired me to go onto Napster, and check out the rest of the album.I sampled "Glide", and it was probably one of the most beautiful songs of the 90's. I downloaded it, and burned it onto a cd, and now play it to death. It's also got some other songs like "Atlanta" which is a ballad that can equal "Creep" anytime. I don't know if they had any Grammy nominations that year as everyone went ga-ga over Santana's "Supernatural", but it should've been considered. I don't know if Weiland was over his drug problems, or not by the time this came out, but it does show he was focused. I may actually buy this someday.

Description of No. 4

This fine band's powerful music has been often overshadowed by singer Scott Weiland's well-documented drug and legal troubles. Not to mention that STP's 1992 debut, Core, was dismissed by critics as "Seattle lite." Nonetheless, STP has managed to make four noteworthy albums, No. 4 being the latest in their solid and cohesive body of work. No. 4 is not groundbreaking, but the quartet's aggressive, dynamic hard rock is emotion-packed and timeless. Not as hit-heavy as its predecessors, No. 4 is nevertheless strong and diverse. On the gentler side, there's the lilting '60s-influenced "I Got You" and "Atlanta," which is almost Doors-like in its dreamy mood. Heavier fare includes the midtempo heavy riffing opener "Down" and the winning but not-so-subtly titled "Sex and Violence," which matches an aggressive, linear feel with a cool punk vibe. At 42 minutes, the only thing wrong with No. 4 is that there's not enough of it. --Katherine Turman
