This year, Stone Temple Pilots are celebrating the 25th anniversary of their 1996 LP, Tiny Music… Songs From the Vatican Gift Shop.
The album will be released in a three-disc, one-LP, deluxe edition. And will feature a remastered version of the original album, alternate versions and mixes of several of the songs.
A major part of the release is a complete concert taped at the Club La Vela in Panama City Beach, Florida, on March 14, 1997.
Due on July 23, it will include a previously unreleased live version of the song “Tumble In The Rough” which is the only track on the album solely credited to late singer Scott Weiland.
That song is streaming now online.
FAST FACTS
- Weiland, who reunited with STP in 2010 after an eight-year hiatus but was dismissed in 2013, died in December 2015 of a drug overdose.
- Chester Bennington, who joined STP in early 2013, departed nearly three years later to spend more time with his main band Linkin Park. Bennington committed suicide in July 2017.
- Jeff Gutt joined STP four years ago. His recording debut with the group was on its self-titled seventh LP, which arrived in March 2018.
- Gutt, a 44-year-old Michigan native who spent time in the early-2000s nu-metal act Dry Cell, among other bands, and was a contestant on “The X Factor”, joined STP in 2017 after beating out roughly 15,000 hopefuls during an extended search that began more than a year earlier.
