Music reviews of No. 4

Music Review: Want grunge?
Rating: 5 Stars

Amazingly, this album was released in 1999, after grunge had come and gone and was replaced by boybands, rap and hip-hop. But it is Grungy, with a capital "G". Most of the tracks are good and dark. The exceptions only make these more apparent. "Sour Girl" and "I Got You" are definitely more in the pop area, with Beatle-inspired lines. "Glide" soars a little into the psychedelic. The last track, "Atlanta", could have been a Doors song, lyrically and musically. The rest are all needle-in-the-arm, glorious grunge. And it's all good. Too often STP has been dismissed as a "pop" band, undeserving of the respect given to Nirvana and Pearl Jam. But let's face it. Any band that achieves commercial success is a pop band, including Nirvana and Pearl Jam. As Scott Weiland once said (I'm paraphrasing something I read), "The Beatles were a pop band, so what's wrong with that?"

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
