Stone Temple Pilots - "Out of Time"

longing is the animal inside you when you bleed
suffering is critical in finding what you need
Rating: 7/10
In February this year, the Stone Temple Pilots fired their vocalist of over 20 years, Scott Weiland. Last night, STP played at KROQ's annual weenie roast with a surprise appearance of Chester Bennington as the lead singer. The same day they released their new song "Out Of Time" with Bennington singing. The Linkin Park vocalist had been looking up to STP since he was a kid and being able to join their band is a great opportunity for him. The band had been talking about going back to the style of their first album Core and they did with this song. It is fast, fun, and full of energy. Bennington is not Weiland, but the band didn't choose him for nothing; he does a fantastic job in making the song what it is. The track is great and I can't wait to see what else the new STP comes up with.
