Stone Temple Pilots silenced their critics with Purple, a richer and more adventurous second album, here on a remastered CD edition. It is the sound of a band hitting its stride.
Released in 1994, Purple followed a debut that had sold in huge numbers but drawn accusations of borrowing from their grunge peers. The band answered by broadening their palette, folding in psychedelia, glam and classic rock influences. Produced by Brendan O'Brien, the album was a major commercial success and established them as one of the decade's leading acts.
Interstate Love Song is the standout, built on a breezy, country-tinged guitar intro before Scott Weiland's soaring chorus kicks in. Vasoline grinds along on a tight, hypnotic riff, while Big Empty moves from quiet, slide-laced verses to a cathartic, heavy chorus. Meatplow opens the album with swagger and a wall of crunching guitars.
The DeLeo brothers' songwriting is the secret weapon, with Dean's inventive guitar parts and Robert's melodic basslines giving the album a warmth and variety that still sounds fresh. Weiland's voice adds charisma and a touch of danger.
This remaster lets every layer shine, from the heaviest riffs to the subtle textures. Purple remains a high-water mark for nineties alternative rock.
