A proper promo video for "Fare Thee Well":

Very nice acoustic album, have it on right now at the gym. I was supposed to see them live this week at the Gramercy but they had to cancel the show (due to a back injury) which is too bad for me.

Highly recommend this new album.

It's even more too bad-der-er for the person with the back injury!

This is a surprisingly wonderful album by them. Definitely unexpected and not really like their 90s stuff at all, but definitely catchy as heck and one of their very best anyway in my opinion.

yes its a great little album. Reading back this thread I was supposed to see them in February in NYC but a band member's bad back canceled the show, of course since then COVID-19 has canceled all the other shows. February was an innocent time.

I was a little surprised at how this bombed, not even charting.

What I heard was pretty good and the production was excellent.

I guess fans want them only to rock.

Or mainstream audiences have little interest in a Stone Temple Pilots without Scott Weiland (or even Chester Bennington).

Then why did the last album make the Top 25 and produce two radio hits, one of which made the Top 10?

Also, with Bennington they had two hits including a #1.

The last album with Weiland did no better, falling off the charts quickly after one hit.

I stand by my statement. Radio play certainly didn't translate to sales.
