Stone Temple Pilots Big Empty // The Decomposer Lounge Music Reaction and Breakdown
Stone Temple Pilots reactions
From the best soundtrack ever... The Crow!
Only Dying was initially supposed to be released on The Crow soundtrack, but wasn't due to the early death of Brandon Lee. This song was intended to be on Purple from the start. I really like Only Dying though. It's definitely worth a listen.
@@Acid_Assassin yeah, Only Dying is a stunning song, probably better suited to the movie, but can't say I have a preference
I agree. The Crow soundtrack is one of the best soundtracks of the nineties. 🔥
@@brandoncrow3741 judging by your name, I'd say you're a big fan 😂
Brilliant soundtrack. One of many 90s classics
The Crow soundtrack. That is all.
Fantastic soundtrack, Helmet, Pantera, NIN, Rollins Band, RATM, to name a few.
Dude, Milktoast by Helmet was my jam back in the day! I also loved that My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult song. I think it was called "Just One Fix"? Anyway, that cd was stuck in my discman for months after it was released.
The Cure
@@maynarddrivesfast804 Just One Fix is a Ministry song. But great soundtrack
@@hortonwho211 You're right. That was on Psalm 69, right? Same time period, so forgive my aging brain confusing the two. After The Flesh was the MLWTTKK song.
Robert DeLeo is so underrated. Every bass player veteran or noob should check out his STP basslines.
It's hard to single out the bass, at least with my TV or phone. I'm sure some good cans or a better soundsystem would help but I'm kinda stuck with what I've got... unless someone feels like making a donation! Lol.
Yeah I remember this and RHCP Soul 2 Squeeze being my absolute favourites when I first started learning bass years ago.
Love that I have got to see both songs live too over the years!
Honestly the DeLeo brothers are a very underrated piece that made STP successful. They bring very complex string ideas to each album. Saw STP in concert twice and I'm grateful that I got a chance.
@@kmulcahyable Search for "Stone Temple Pilots Big Empty bass guitar boosted"
Slept on; for sure. Also note worthy and never stated enough, he was an ardent fan of Motown.
Stone Temple Pilots being overlooked as one of those great bands from the '90s...how I loved "Plush"!!!
It won a Grammy didn’t it?
My younger brother and I learned guitar (me) and bass (brother) by playing along to Core. Matter of fact, our first gig we ever played in our first band was mostly songs off that album along with some Nirvana and Foo Fighters tunes. I was 14 then, and I'm 40 now. Crazy how much time has passed. I was just commenting the other day about Metallica and Pearl Jam being played on the "classic rock" stations now.
I think another underrated track on this album is "Still Remains." Love that track!
Probably one of the best ones on the album. That and Pretty Penny, but as a whole, "Purple" is a fantastic album, start to finish.
@@dangiampietro6606 dude for sure. My favorite to jam/drum to is Unglued. Not a song to react to but definitely worth a listen!
Army ants is another 1
To me the biggest crime of "unederrating" in that album, is Kitchenware and Candybars, I think that's a masterpiece of a song
Most songs on purple lp are really good
The MTV Unplugged version of this is legendary
I preferred the simplicity of the Headbanger's Ball acoustic version with just Scott and Dean. It's the one that they included on their Thank You album. I was living in Colorado when it was released and it quickly became more popular than the original version.
All three versions are epic.
Omg yes
@@snattler that version is epic too!
@@TammyM36
I must have been binging on STP when I made that comment and got mixed up about what video I was commenting about. I was talking about Plush and I just realized this video is about Big Empty. Total brain fart on my part.
@@snattler I understood tho! Headbangers ball performance was totally epic! One of my favorites!
Robert DeLeo was the main reason I was such a big fan of Stone Temple Pilots. As an aspiring bass player, I listened to their albums a number of times before I even really paid attention to anyone else in the band.
You sound exactly like my younger brother. He and I learned Core front to back when we were preteens. Great primer for an aspiring musician.
Robert DeLeo is such an underappreciated musician. When I saw Army of Anyone on their tour, I got to meet the band as they ran out of the venue (Bowery in NYC?) to get on the bus for a Rolling Stone Interview. Everyone else was at coat check and I was like HOLY SHIT! Told Robert he's the man and he gave me a bro hug.
But man that voice on Scott Weland, really comes on strong, it’s honestly impossible to ignore in my opinion.
I believe he wrote a lot of the songs as well if i'm not mistaken.
Man, the bass is SOOOOOO GOOOOOD if one can pick/separate it by ear. Dude is one of the most underrated bassists in the history of Rock & Roll.
Rob DeLeo is one of my favorite bassists.
Seriously, he's criminally underrated. And the songwriting between he and Dean is just so, so good.
DeLeo brothers are very underrated. Great choice good sir
These dudes were amazing live. Can’t imagine the pain this band has endured over the years.
Big time.
@Big Homie Steve The Metal Head They were also my first live experience. Saw them in 2000 on the No. 4 Tour co-headlining with RHCP on the Californication tour. Both bands played full sets and it was fucking amazing.
I saw them at the Paul Paul theater at the Fresno Fair in 1993. They were awesome.
I watched them in 95 during their tiny music tour. Watched them with Chester as the lead singer and just saw this with Jeff. The band is amazing! Too many times we look at the singers without acknowledging the nucleus of the band.
I wasn't into music until I heard a track off this record, I was 12 years old and I stole this tape from my sister. I started it on the B side and the song Silvergun Superman came on and completely turned me from having an apathetic view towards music into a massive rock fan in a series of minutes, from that point on my whole life up until now has centered around music. It's a hugely underrated song from STP, one of their heaviest riffs ever but still smothered in the psychedelic style they are known for, I highly recommend it.
Love Silvergun Superman. Not talked about enough. It's one of those tracks that never gets old.
The whole Purple album is a masterpiece. From the first track of "Meat Plow" to the hidden track "12 Gracious Melodies" where Scott Weiland sings like a crooner.
@@vonVile Yup. This is where they really start expanding their sound. Songs like Pretty Penny, Still Remains and Kitchenware & Candybars begin to demonstrate the band's true versatility. Songs like these weren't immediately appealing to me, but as I dug deeper and even started to learn how to play them on my guitar, I really began appreciating their songwriting ability. If you haven't checked out Perdida (their latest low-key mostly acoustic release), I totally recommend it. It's not the old hard-rocking STP but a more refined, introspective STP that is more in line with tracks like Pretty Penny and And So I Know. Not everyone's cup of tea but I totally bought into it. It is refreshing as it seems like this album showcases many of the bands varied musical interests. Sure they can rock out, but they can also play a mean spanish-inspired guitar song!
Purple is their best album in my opinion. So diverse. Every song is amazing.
@@koolhandhill Yup. I loved/lived "Core", but couldn't stand "Purple" until I started playing guitar and bass, and the guys I played with made me learn some. That "STP sound" Geebz talked about... always some little off tone, or layered guitars playing chords slightly off from each other. And their basslines were WAY busier than I could ever hear, before I tried playing any of them.
There is a live version of this from MTV unplugged. It is absolutely amazing. Scott Weiland was so talented, they had so much more potential as a band. But drugs burnt out that possibility.
"A tale as old as time"
Such an underrated band it's criminal. I remember catching "Plush" on MTV in 94 and loved them ever since. One of those rare bands that forced me to buy their albums on the strength of one song...Awwwright!
Rest easy Scott.
Definitely one of the foundation bands from the 90’s. I’m sure they weren’t given their due props being a LA band while Seattle music was king. I’ve been love at first listen since the first listen of Core.
@@Brotha_Teresa I couldn't agree more.
They seemed to get so much flak for being grunge copycats...were some of these critics even listening? The DeLeo brothers are flat out monsters on their instruments. Their melodic sensibilities are extremely sophisticated even now...Perdida was amazing. Scott was a true frontman, but Jeff more than holds his own, and Eric is great on the kit too.
@@Brotha_Teresa they're considered a San Diego band but Dean and Robert are from Jersey, Kretz is from San Jose and Scott went from San Jose to Ohio back to So Cal.
Eric Kretz always had killer sounding snares, just punches you right in the face!
Roberto De Leo, just liquid gold on bass
Stone Temple Pilots: ultimate lazy afternoon / hanging out music.
I dunno, STP do have some heavier tracks.
@@TheRuiner66 Unglued, Dead & Bloated to name a couple
RIP Scott Weiland! Love STP!!!! Miss Scott and the vintage STP. So chill but powerful. So many great tunes.
STP is a fairly underrated band of the 1990s, they had so many hits and was a big part of what I heard on the radio growing up. They draw from many influences from smooth jazz to psychadelic to grunge to pure rock, amazing succinct but explorative. Scott Weiland was a modern rock star, with the highs and the lows, may he rest in peace. The guitarist and bassist are brothers and the way they work together without exactly following each other works like magic. The drummer has such perfect touch to amplify the flow of the songs. I miss the 90s!
Scott is one of my musical heroes, but Dean’s baselines and harmonies are so overlooked as such a huge part of the STP sound. RIP SW
Honestly Dean is practically the lead instrument of the band, I had no idea growing up but last year I looked at the writing credits. Humble band overall for being such a big part of our lives.
Most underrated album of the grunge era. Absolute masterpiece. My first ever gig, Brixton Academy, 1994....great times
I wouldn't call it underrated, it was massively successful and was/is a fan favourite. More successful than any album from Soundgarden or Alice in Chains
i agree. i wouldnt have called this underrated. this put them in the convo for voice of a generation
@@alphadogg64 Maybe underrated is the wrong word, but over here in the UK it definitely wasn't as popular as other grunge albums
Stone Temple Pilots - Atlanta. It's such a beautiful track.
Very beautiful.
Had it as a background for my wedding video. Pure beauty of a song.
@@yenza123 That's awesome. I've always thought it was one of their most romantic and haunting songs.
My favorite song of all time. A masterpiece. RIP Scott. You voice touched so many on this earth.
One of my favorite STP songs is one that never was a radio tune and that is Pretty Penny. I really love the guitar to it.
Love STP
I believe this is also on the crow soundtrack. Great song. Great band. Rip Scott
Fun fact the bass player wrote the song and the guitar riffs and sings the harmony vocals on the track
Freddie did that on Bohemian Rhapsody and gave the finished piece to Brian and the band including the solo. I really like when that happens.
One of the greatest dynamics of this song is: We already KNEW Stone Temple Pilots as have this big ass huge riff-y sound. So, it was SOOO different to hear them lay back...but....when we weren't expecting it...BANGO! WE GET the big stuff we all knew and loved about them. It was THAT contrast...the artistic Dynamite for this particular song. Killer tune
The singing voice of Scott in those early days God was it good
I’m so glad you did this song, Geebz. This band, and specifically this album, is one of the most important in my soundtrack of life. I was 10 going on 11, and there were some major family issues that were happening around the time this came out. It was one of the records that kept me together and pulled me out of some tough stuff.
Again, really appreciate your channel. I’ve learned about a lot of new music, but experiencing songs like this with you is very cool and rewarding. Thanks man.
Since you love searching for the bass lines, you should try Trippin ' on a hole in a paper heart by the same STP. I bet you'd love that one. Cheers!
Great song! Dean's guitar solo is awesome as well.
When I was a kid I was never a big fan of this song but it was my mom's favorite. A few days after she died a couple years ago I heard the song on the radio and I damn near broke down crying. Ever since then I try to listen to it at least once every couple months just to remember
Sorry about your mom. :( How old was she? And how old are you?
Rip SW
Would love to see you break down these songs:
Radiohead - Weird Fishes / Arpeggi
Alter Bridge - Blackbird
Radiohead - Nude
Literally I just got done listening to the Blackbird album, again. Alter Bridge has to come back around!
Definitely Weird Fishes needs to be decomposed!
Weird fishes! Picked over by the worms… for sure
ima just say first for the sake of it, great stuff as always geeby mate
Much appreciated
Agreed!!
Stone Temple Pilots will be appreciated more and more as the years pile on. The 5 albums with the full-lineup are criminally underrated.
I saw STP (with the meat puppets) back in the early 90's on a hit of ecstasy, it was a really really really really really enjoyable show.
Love the Rick Beato reference! This was one of my favorite STP songs growing up. The dynamic between quiet and loud always stuck with me.
This Song is awesome, reminds me of the Crow ... STP still one of my fav Groups ..... brings me then to Velvet Revolver...
Scott had a great voice and will always be missed. R.I.P. Scott
The Crow soundtrack, nice. I love how many amazing radio singles STP has, so many great songs from Vasoline to Days of the Week. RIP Scott
Love the Rick Beato reference! When the greats recognize the greats!
Stone Temple Pilots are so often overlooked in the larger picture of 90's rock. I love playing through their huge singles for people and always getting the same reaction: "I love these songs. These are all the same band?!?" If Scott Weiland's demons hadn't sidelined them for so much of their career, these guys would have been superstars instead of the footnote they've sadly become.
My favorite Stone Temple Pilots song, actually.
i remember thinking how perfect this song was for the Crow soundtrack. dark, dreamy, powerful
This is one of my favorite songs. The dreary guitar is so lovely. 😍
I was lucky enough to see them live with red hot chili peppers in 2000 it was amazing
Oh yes 🙌🏼 Scotty’s voice here. Great choice
there's a band that was moderately sucessful in the 90s called Hum that you might not have heard. They had one hit song called "Stars" (that you ABSOLUTELY have to check out) but all the songs from that album were great.
This entire album is a masterpiece. Still my fav STP album, Core is 2nd. They remastered those albums for the 25th anniversary reissues. ✌😁🤘
Vinyl?
The post-bridge instrumental on this one is amazing, my favorite thing I've ever heard them do. It is just so... wonderful. The bass, the building wah guitar that pulls it back into the chorus, the toms just banging around and building... woah.
Dean DeLeo's guitar playing is a master work of weird chords and voicings and I feel next to Robert's bass playing it's what sets them apart from being a typical power chords rock band.
On the basis of grunge and whatnot, I would love to see you check out more Alice in Chains or Soundgarden.
_Rooster_ and _I Stay Away_ are phenomenal pieces from AIC, and Soundgarden has way too many songs to choose from, but my favorite has always been _Burden In My Hand._
Keep up the great vids, Geebz! Much appreciated, Awwright!
Thanks to you and Rick Beato, I have gained a better appreciation and a different perspective of the music I grew up with and loved. Thank you and keep up the great content!
Man, I completely forgot about how much I love this song... Actually this whole album is a banger
STP!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘 Rob DeLeo is a monster!!!! They were all so good.... AWWWRIGHT!!!!
One of my favorite guitar players. His chords are gorgeous.
Now that I have the headphones that you have and a new motherboard with DTS, I need to listen to all of these things again. So many little details that I never heard before
I did the same thing when I got those headphones (actually they were a gift from my wife). The nuance you get is incredible.
They opened with this at bumbershoot 2008 and it was fucking amazing. I feel very fortunate to have seen them before Scott passed.
Dean DeLeo's guitar tone and chord voicings, and Robert's bass playing, were both HUGE influences on why I started playing guitar and bass
And...I'm back in the 90s again. Yeww!🥰
This CD, the entire album, is what got me into rock music back in the 90's. So when I say it is perfect, and I do say it quite often, I may not be very objective...
I cannot be the only person who low key is more judgey about songs. G, you’ve opened SO many “eyes,” ears about music. I listen to the music first🤷🏻♀️.NOW, after watching these videos, I listen for each 🎸 instrument and it’s like hearing your favorite song for the first time. Aloha🤘🏽🤜🏽🤛🏽
Great choice, Geebz! This is one of STP's chillest sings, and the bass is very " goober worthy" 😁
The chord at the beginning is an Em7b5 (022330 for tab geeks) so you were spot on in hearing that b5 dissonance. It's a tight grouping of notes, so it can be hard to hear it, but the mighty decomposer ears picked it up straightaway! Great job as always! Aloha 🤙
"Its not a good day to be a bad guy" - Eric Draven (The Crow) .. this song plays to the trailer of the crow. Great Movie, Amazing Soundtrack.
Yesss! This album is one of my musical signposts. Huge part of my soundtrack of life from middle school on. Thanks for pointing out the nuances and the little jazzy elements. I was lucky enough to see them live a few times. Always amazing!!
Great choice, an excellent song and a shoutout to Rick Beato! Conversations kill. More 90’s alternative artists!
Oh man throwback to HS days watchin The Crow at the movies n how things added so much to the movie...
I never quite got how extraordinary a bass player Robert Deleo is until I watched Rick Beato break down Interstate Love Song.
Soundtrack of my life: when this was released, I'd shoot pool at Stix a couple nights/week, and this (whole record) would be playing. It was a long time ago, and I sure feel old.
The whole album is epic
big empty is the perfect driving song. period.
With all those grunge and Seattle bands people remember from that time, looking back STP was probably my fave of the period, hard to beat their first two albums. And this being on the Crow sdtrk too, just the feel of that whole thing, really takes me back to the early 90s
I love the way you are describing the bass line as a telegraph, like it is sending messages. Robert DeLeo is an amazing bassist who crafts these intricate, yet mostly unassuming bass lines in just about every STP song. He is influenced by guys like Jamerson, Entwistle, Prestria, JPJ, and Squier, and in my opinion, his ability to meld the genres of Jazz, Soul, R&B, and Rock into one is like no other.
Crazy I heard this song on the radio on the way home from work at night and I thought this would be a great song for you to decompose, and you did it on the same day. I was just thinking of imagery of Scott driving a red or black 80's model camaro as he's stoned face serious in another place in his head late at night. The opening lyric with the slide just pushes hard the tone of the song.
My favorite song of theirs.
The Crow soundtrack. I’m roughly 12 years old. Got the tape of STP and the soundtrack. Those were the days. Sarah and Sergeant Albrecht eating hotdogs as T-bird drives by with this song playing. Wild times.
One of my top 10 tracks all time. Love it
The artistry of 90's radio music is some of the best. STP are among the A class. Sometimes albums aren't the best but the HITS are hits, if you catch my drift brah.
Your hand to beard art is something to behold
Even got a chill “alright” in there👌
I always imagine a standing bass, 3 piece drum kit, and a dobro with a slide, when I hear this song..
in my 20's I decided to start playing bass guitar (after being a rhythm guitar player) and became quite good. My teacher was DeLeo and stp. I knew the first three albums note for note complete on bass. Im 51 now and still use the intricacies that I learned from deleo to deconstruct the shit that is out there today. amazing
Every record this producer Brendan O’Brien was a part of sounds fantastic. Please consider checking out another O’Brien-produced gem, Dogman by King’s X. Just go with the title track.
Great to know another King's X fan. They are the most underrated rock band ever. Doug Pinnick's bass playing is a major influence on what made Grunge music grunge. Every bass player in Seattle wanted to play like him.
I would also suggest:
"Black Flag"
"It's Love"
Just a terrific song to chill with--excellent driving song and forces you to sing along...
Do "Emotion Sickness" by Silverchair
I saw this suggested a few weeks ago and seconded it then, so I’ll do it again. The entire Neon Ballroom album has been giving me chills for 20 years.
Ah fuck yeah! What a great suggestion!
I'm really enjoying your break-downs of these songs.
this is a song you *would* wanna do a lyrical breakdown on or watch/read someone else's.
weilands lyrics about his life of drug addiction/abuse in general are so prolific , beyond the beauty of the music.
especially this song. this one (I think) is about being high and taking a girl back to his place kind to take advantage of her
sad and dark like most beautiful music is and my favorite of theirs.
That bass line casts a sedating spell
This is one of my top STP songs.
This was the only STP album I bought, but I borrowed "core" from my sister and made a tape of it to listen to while playing Street Fighter 2 (strong memory).
This album, though, I associate with going through my Magic cards.
They had other great songs on later albums too.
The way these random memories link up is so weird and powerful. I know exactly what you mean...like when I was in 9th grade and listening to Stabbing Westward while playing Breath of Fire 3.
Dang, man, I remember when I caught you with maybe a thousand followers, and my man's got a play button in the back! Awesome to see, keep it up!
This song holds a very special place in my Soundtrack of Life.
When this song came out, I was in a phase of only listening to rap. Then this song was used on the trailer for the movie The Crow.
And it hit me right where I needed it to help me realize that I could listening to more than one genre of music. Never looked back and now I enjoy a little bit of everything.
Cool Book sitting on your desk 👍. Had the pleasure of meeting Patch and talking about rando stuff for 2 hours. The man is a story teller for sure!! Cheers &👌👌
I always love these videos, dude! Your wisdom helps me see all of these songs in a new way. 👍
Popular 90's Canadian band
The Tea Party - psychopomp (rock) or drawing down the moon (bluesy)
That’s a good tune
One of my favorite songs. Found you when you posted that first tool reaction. Really enjoy what you do. You do so many songs that I have loved and explain to me why it is that I love them. Been moving to a new home and had to put you on the back burner for a while. When I came back you did one of my favs. Keep doing what you do!! Love it!
This album was recorded by the great Brendan O' Brien. His signature style was to get a live sound in the studio. I love how all his recordings sound. He really knows how to engineer a record and make it sound big but still very organic. I always say that when you are listening to a Brendan O' Brien mix it sounds as if you are in the same room as the band and they are performing an intimate concert for you and a few friends.
The lazy bluesy feel contrasted by the big power of the refrain is inimitable
STP is some of the craziest chords I've ever played on guitar. I call them upside down chords.
As a guitarist when you listen to Stone Temple Pilots you think you've pretty much got figured out what's happening through the chord changes. But then you go to play it and it turns out just about every chord he plays is a very unique progression of diminished and augmented and odd notes thrown in and jazz positions. He's waaaay more clever than he gets credit for.
It's like if a jazz guitarist really like a Nirvana so he wanted to make a rock band.
The same for the basse!!
Ah, yes. My favorite STP song.
