Hickory Dichotomy - Stone Temple Pilots

[1professorMcG]

It sounds like they had a baby with Paul Simon.

[petergriffin238]

i met my gf at this concert here in billings mt!!!!! hahahaha

[dalecampbl7]

i hate the new stp...I wouldn't be so opposed to them had they started out like this, but they started out with core/purple and ended up like this...I just find it hard to swallow.

[tinfoilhatter]

@dalecampbl7 hahahaha,i know what you mean,but no matter how much i hate one of these guy's songs,i can't seem to ever throw one away or get it out of my head..this one reminds me of my friend dave-man,we gotta get together and do our own thing-and these guys just make me wanna be a listener most of the time...but yet they remind me of me,i think i've indirectly been a huge influence on them-of course we all share many common influences,and that explains it right there,no one's heard us yet-

[broodyart]

It sounds like, follow someones stupid ideas that will make a dick-outta-me.

[broodyart]

Thought it was about the old joke....what's the sex change operation called from woman to a man? hookadicktomy.

[96bossman]

is it just me or is this slowed down a bit???

[barticus04]

@96bossman Nope...just you!

[noblesiner]

I love the way he delivers the lyrics in this. Really comical. ROCK MUSIC AS COMEDY. Rock music hasn't been funny since Stacy's mom, but this is pretty funny, and not in a bad way. Really enjoying it.

[AegisOrnus]

@noblesiner David Bowie's been singing songs in this style for a while now.

[SupernalOne]

aha, pseudo-retro-glam/protest rock -- I hear Dylan, Donovan, Lou Reed, Humble Pie - odd piece, must read the lyrics

[shannahmc]

awesomeness :)

[grUngEroX1991]

This should have gotten a video

[jetsonic69]

THE STONE TEMPLE CROWS :)

its only a matter of time before all rock bands from the 1990s turn into BLACK CROWES + AEROSMITH + ROLLING STONES + LED ZEPPLIN + BLUES SOUL ROCK BANDS :)

[bbeboutuaa]

@jetsonic69 The Black Crowes are a 90's band. Their debut album was in 1990. They formed in 1984 though

[Theslayerwins]

@ChadnMel dude agree but motherfuck you saw them twice and are gonna see again. shit i live in to small a town to get any good bands.the best ive sen was ed kowalcyzh of Live

[Dugganworks]

THIS IS SO AWFUL IT RAPES MY FREAKIN EARS OH MY GOD

[drunkdonutboy]

Listening to this live is amazing. 

[kevankw]

i must say personally this is my least fav stp album, im just a more gurngy guy. But this song isin my top 5 stp of all time, i friggin love it

[SczLegend]

@kevankw This, Maver, and first kiss on mars are definitely three of their best songs.

[rocksdiamonds]

who is maroon 5?

STP ROCKS THANKS TO COME TO ARGENTINA



[1410thebest]

Zajebiaszczy!!! Jezusie nazarejski jak w dawnym 90' stylu :) FUcking great set!!!!!

[Riseandburn1992]

My Fave of the Album

[smalingas]

recontra Bowie!!!!!! ME ENCANTA

[BiGJoeL1987]

I'm seeing these guys tomorrow on Lima, Peru!!!

This is gonna the best way to end this year!

[dartvader158]

it reminds me nine lives aerosmiths album

[JazzKarabass]

@dartvader158 yep, a little bit ;)

[the47monkeys]

LOVE THIS ALBUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dogscomebeforekids]

saw them a week ago in san diego, i can die a happy woman now (: (: (:

[donkzombie]

This song is amazing, I see more of a stones approach to alot of this album, I think its a nod to Scotts's Rolling Stones influence. I think this album rocks!! Gotta love these guys, they aint trying to do the same thing over and over again ,like other bands. At least they can move on and try new things!! Rock on STP!!.

[HateCrimeJesus]

@donkzombie So moving on means Moderately moving on or...ow forget it...they are ripping on the stones?? How about the beatles? STP is genious non the less...why try to bring them down with simple Laid generics...remember he did a song with the doors also which stemmed an entire album...oh, what was it...oh yeah...shangri-La Dee Da...No Disrespect...one STP to rule them all...Stone Temple Pilots is the one band to show love not only to new comers as to the past generations...

[HateCrimeJesus]

@donkzombie ...also, deep purple and Jefferson Airplane forever!!!

[HateCrimeJesus]

@HateCrimeJesus HeHe, I think Hunter S Thompsan would probably take credit if he could...hahahahahahaha.

[colorwheel777]

@HateCrimeJesus deep purple is LAME.

[LucySkyz]

@colorwheel777 No. You are.

[56oldssuper88]

@colorwheel777 Not, look up some old live videos.

[56oldssuper88]

@colorwheel777 i just dont see how anyone who knows anything about music think they a lame wtf. They are prettty damn good musicians. watch " Deep Purple- Fireball (live)" if you say it doesnt kick ass u dont know whatkickin ass is.

[56oldssuper88]

@colorwheel777 or Deep Purple- Strange kind of woman. The live one from '73.

[RockNfuckinRoller97]

@colorwheel777 fuck you

[TheHail777]

fuck maroon 5!!! 5 dicks in their assholes!!! STP for life!!

[AKMAC82]

@TheHail777 LOL!!!! YESS!! THAT's AWESOME!!! I'm gonna tell that to people from now on who love Maroon 5!!

[dlong6184]

The lyrics really don't make any sense to me. This makes me think that maybe the lyrics were written just for the aesthetic of spoken word---the sound that the words make.

[numerosorte]

@dlong6184

Or maybe u're a moron, lol

[StephenAnthonyMusic]

WTF Why is this song so awesome!!! I love it!

[caincolesr]

Does anyone else notice the Zeppelin in it at 2:23? Wow STP is so amazing.

[Gypscrew]

@ChristeenaB definitely some bowie but I see the melody in the lyrics to be more of a B-52'ish style. The style in which he sings the lyrics really reminds me of the song "Rock lobster" unitl it goes into a chorus. I am definitely diggin this song, I like it.

[jbsouthpaw2009]

Love STP. Own nealy all their albums but c'mon tell the truth fans if a new no name band released this single we would be saying it sucks. But its STP so we'll give it a chance to "grow" on us. It is an upbeat, hoppin tune tho.

[JackMProductions]

the verses are horrible for your ears, but everything else is awesome. it would be in my top 3 but the verses kill it

[NnysVelvetRevolver]

@JackMProductions could u write/sing any better than Scott (The God) Weiland???

[JackMProductions]

@NnysVelvetRevolver i never said that i could sing better than him. i just said that verses are kind of annoying because he purposely sings off pitch during them

[NnysVelvetRevolver]

the only physical album i have right now is Purple, im getting this one tomorow, and i need all dem others... :( Core, Tiny Music..., No.4, Shangrila dee la, and Thank You [maybe not cuz its a compilation] and possibly Buy This....do the older albums cost a small amount???

[stewartmc7]

All I need is No.4 and I complete my STP collection. In all my 16 years, I didnt realize how truly amazing they are until that concert a few weeks ago. HICKORY DICHOTOMY!

[Rapter57]

my fav is Fast As I Can

[metallijames]

it's a hickory dichotomy, you're messin with my braaaaain

whatever that means. but i fucking love it

[GamecubeLPs]

This is my new favorite song. I want this album on Vinyl.

[sowhatdude1]

@GamecubeLPs .... Ebay, it's there cheap 19 bucks - bought one, it's great ... :O)

[SouthernTenn]

No, this sounds something like a mix between Jackyl and Puddle of mudd. Nice..

[411Ch]

Entourage!

[Riseandburn1992]

This Gotta Be My Favorite From The Album This Should The Next Single!!!

[progenullius]

and Dean DeLeo looks like Tom Petty. I like his compositions on this album.

[uninvited13]

lol, does kinda sound like tom petty! weilands the f n man! plus he performs better with stp than vr in my opinion, at least when ive seen them

[uninvited13]

anyone know where i can go to play my playlist on random with the new set up i cant find the random. stp live at family values one of his best performances i saw him in seattle, not 2 mention revolver 3x

[bonafidemband]

2:25 Dancing days

[4runner39]

this kinda sounds like old Bowie to me

[ocssports11]

Am I the only one who thinks Scott Weiland sounds like Tom Petty on this track?

[metallijames]

@ocssports11 yeah right! he sounds just like David Bowie ;)

[sweaterstring]

@ocssports11 yes

[segurotech]

Entourage bitches!! check tha footnotes~!!!!

[NoirTiger]

STP this album has stuff different from what you usually do but I still like it!

[guitarjunkie777]

I might be biased because I grew up listening to STP, but this album blows every contemporary attempt at a cohesive album away. Finally, a modern album worth buying!

[7contra]

la mejor cancion del album!!

[Playboyz35]

Can't wait to see them live at Jones Beach in September!!!!! The new album is kick ass, going to be considered a savior of rock and roll......new rock now a day sucks ass!!! STP bitches!!!

[Kurtagx]

Alright, alright, alright, c'mon!

[JG1962]

Robert's bass is downright FILTHY in this tune!

[supermanfan62]

hey this sounds like stp

[Blackbore]

i like the live better, it seems heavier, STP!! still my fave song though.

[UpTheSnakes]

This sounds a lot like Led Zeppelin from Houses Of The Holy/Phisical Graffiti-era, the music sounds a lot like them I ever hear some chords in the solo riped from Zep...I guess it's a tease;) Scott sounds a bit like Rotten a bit like Bowie... But don't get me wrong I fucking LOVE this song like I love Zep. Been waiting years to hear something in this style done by any band and this record fucking works. STP rocks, best rock n roll band on the planet I guess;) I'm not counting oldboys of course.

[NS9144]

@UpTheSnakes I hear Aerosmith circa 1975 "Toys In The Attic" LP.

STP rocks on this new CD!! A+ across the board!!!

[mrbrownstone909]

is it just me or does scott sound like johnny rotten during the verses

[WillingFS]

@jraab420

How is it retarded to notice that Scott, who has always struck me as a little like Bowie, drew influence. About every band there ever is or has been draws influence from each other. STP is one of the most original bands there is but you can always find a song or two on each album inspired by another band. You are the one who is retarded in this scenario. 

[jraab420]

@WillingFS cool story bro.

[WillingFS]

I love the new album. It's second to purple imo, but still great. This song is definitely Bowie inspired outside of the chorus, which is fine by me, love Bowie too.

[CanadianChronic2121]

i dunno , i just can't get into this album .

just isn't catching my attention ..

[eugenerodriguez]

Is it me or the line "you're messing with my brain" has a lil bit of Layne Staley feel??????

[brennt80]

more cowbell

[NnysVelvetRevolver]

this song fuckin' rocks

[nashman19751999]

why dont you morons listen to the fucking lyrics it says it all

[kozydogg]

sounds like it could be a Black Crowes song

[JG1962]

@kozydogg

It DOES have a Black Crowes vibe to it!

[TBoneMontana]

amazing song great stuff.

[Devilsfan123]

Excellent southern rock vibes. Amazing song.

[MyJarOfFlies]

man.. i dont like it.

mabe i had too much expectations for STP?

[CanadianChronic2121]

this album was like a disapointed christmas present ..

You get all excited hoping for a new bike , and then you get sock's ..

That's how i felt when i listened to this album.

[stpunderground]

@CanadianChronic2121 nah man this album is great... it gets better with every listen just give it a few more listens

[howardec]

This has an 80's/David Bowie/STP feel to it. Another perfect example of STP's new material... it's their spin on music over the past 50 years!

[NnysVelvetRevolver]

These new ones have a real 60's fell to 'em

Dont they??

[termsofusepolice]

After hearing Army of Anyone and Velvet Revolver, I wasn't holding out much hope for this new STP record. But I have been absolutely blown away. Every track on this thing is A+ in its own way. The creative juices are still flowing through these guys, thank God. Keeping real rock'n'roll alive!

[bnel890]

i personally think this is the one of the few songs on this album that holds to stp standards. Scott demonstrating his ability change his voice to a strange but lovable tone, it has a quirky, simple, awesome beat, and real simple catchy lyrics that get stuck in your head.

[ChadnMel]

Maroon 5!!!! Are you kidding me!!!! STP rocks!!! Who the F*** listens to Maroon 5? Great album STP, Have already saw you twice in concert and looking forward to seeing you in August. Great song!!!

[fuckinlayne]

@ChadnMel WELL SAID BRO. STP FOREVER.

[SorrowsVacancyRock]

@ChadnMel I actually just got done listening to Maroon 5. Excuse me if i like all types of music. But i agree this is a kick ass song!

[RaRdEvA]

@ChadnMel

***Stands up and claps for ChadMel's words***

[Monkeyboy92037]

@ChadnMel

spoiler: people can like STP and Maroon 5

[TheHail777]

@ChadnMel for real man...fuck maroon 5....spread the word my friend :)

[nemba14]

@ChadnMel Many people listen to Maroon 5 as well... but there's no way to compare awesome STP with lame Maroon 5.... They're finally comin' to my damn country in December.. Greetings from Colombia, we'll make sure Scott will have a great time, n' so will do de Leo bros and Kretz.. :-D

[getwii]

@ChadnMel Both Maroon 5 and STP rocks!

I also like more STP, but you have to respect Maroon 5 fans too! These bands have greats musicians and great compositors! If you don't like Marron 5, don't judge them bad, aight? Because when you say things like these you only show that you can't repect different music genres. Different bands just want to have fun with their own style! Music was made for people to enjoy it and have fun, not to be criticized!

[wesman531]

@getwii where in the world do you get any relation between a legendary band like stp and maroon 5? aight? and what the fuck does aight mean any way?

[SczLegend]

@wesman531 aight means alright, lol.

[epicalice]

@ChadnMel Maroon 5 and STP are both great bands which I listen to! but STP is an iconic legendary band.

[CKing180]

when did STP decide to sound like Maroon 5, ugh this is horrible

[nenshoukun]

lol you just posted this on another of this album's songs. also no one cares

[firebirdgomez]

@CKing180 Theres A Difference Betwwen STP & Maroon 5,STP Is The Greatest Band In The World,While Maroon 5 Is Too Far In The Closet 2 Make Good Music.Know What I Mean?

[skullznthings]

@firebirdgomez thank you for making my day :D

[darkcreed18]

Parecen Aerosmith !!

[moneyrocks11596]

thanks for putting this up (:

[romarishappy]

i like this one.
