With “She’s My Queen,” Dean, Robert, Kretz, and Gutt then return the listener to the acoustic side of ’90s Grunge, in which the focus of the music was on the sonic innocence of the instruments and vocals instead of on the rage and angst. Still seemingly in the same beat per minute, “Years” then further takes the listener to Stone Temple Pilots’ trip to ’70s Folk Rock with its poignant piano parts and soulful alto-saxophone interlude by Chris Speed-absurd as this may sound-it may fit onto a playlist that includes songs by Chicago (“Saturday in the Park”) and America (“I Need You”).

“I Didn’t know the Time” continues Perdida’s overall folky theme plus ten for the beautiful guitar ad-lib and flute by Adrienne Byrne if the term Folk Grunge has not been coined yet, then it is appropriate to use in describing the general sound of this album. The mood then turns more somber with the throwback title track graced with a subtle string orchestration by Yutong Sharpe (violin), Julie Staudhamaer (viola), and Erin Breene (cello), it will remind the initiated of the band’s 1996 single “Lady Picture Show.”
Following next is the similarly sentimental balladry of “Three Wishes”-wistful with its delectable cornucopia of guitars. Scheduled for release on Friday, February 7, 2020, via Rhino Records, Perdida opens with its lead single-the countryside laments of “Fare Thee Well,” which has also a bluesy Gospel tinge to it, courtesy of Dean’s slide guitar, as well as the organ and piano melodies by guest musician Bill Appleberry and church-mode-style backing vocals by Joy Simpson and Tiffany Brown. The forthcoming offering, Perdida, will be Gutt’s second album with Stone Temple Pilots. Founders Dean DeLeo (guitar), Robert DeLeo (bass, backing vocals), and Eric Kretz (drums) soldiered on, recruiting Jeff Gutt as the new vocalist. One of the most successful bands to ever come out of the Grunge era in the early 1990s was Stone Temple Pilots, alongside the usual heavyweights-Nirvana (“Come as You Are”) Pearl Jam (“Even Flow”), Alice in Chains (“Man in the Box”), and Soundgarden (“Outshined”).įormed in 1989, in San Diego, California, United States, Stone Temple Pilots shot to popularity as soon as Core was released in 1992-their best-selling debut record, powered by their most-recognizable, chart-topping single “Plush.” Five albums more ensued-1994’s Purple to 2010’s self-titled-still with their original vocalist, the late Scott Weiland, who died in 2015.
