RIP Scott Weiland: Another casualty of a greedy woman.
>>60803815
And Lady Heroin
>>60803815
Well shit nigger, this was the last thing I expected to happen today
>>60803815
Though possibly buttrock at times, stp put out some great records. Scott Weiland even had a few good solo songs (seee "mockingbird girl" - his solo version, not the one he did with Magnificent Bastards)...Oh and Tiny Music and Purple wouldn've been /mu/ core in 1995
ANOTHER CASUALTY OF SOCIETY
>>60803815
In all seriousness, RIP Scott Weiland
>>60803815
he was a junkie fuck
>>60803815
He's half the man he used to be.
>>60803815
>casualty of a greedy woman
I just assumed he ODed. What did the woman do?
>>60803815
Good night sweet prince.
This is really sad. I just went to see him in concert less than 2 weeks ago. It was a good show but you could tell he was just there to do his job. R.I.P. Scott ;_;
>>60803815
So sad
Pearl jam was my favorite band when I was a kid
two to go
>>60805217
Cornell and Vedder are consummate pros, they aren't going anywhere for a long time.
>>60803815
junkies die early. that's what happens when you can't be a responsible adult.
>>60803815
Dude was obviously back on drugs:

>>60805217
How do you guys rank them?
I asked this in the last thread but it got archived.
>>60805243
>>60805264
Cornell > Staley > Weiland > Vedder >>>>> Cobain
>>60805264
Layne > Chris > Kurt > Eddie > Scott
They were all good singers, though.
>>60805294
>>60805282
Is that in terms of song-writing or voice?
>>60805217
Forgetting a few grunge singers there, pal.
>>60805339
Has to be voice. Otherwise it's trolling.
>>60805339
Voice:
Cornell > Staley > Weiland > Vedder >>>>> Cobain
Song-writing:
Cornell > Vedder > Weiland > Cobain >>>>>>> Staley (Cantrell wrote almost everything)
>>60805339
voice

>Scott Weiland, the melody man - if you can't sing it, nobody can!
>>60805343
>he hasn't heard of the Big 4 + STP
>>60805360
Then Vedder should be ranked last
>>60805264
clearly: cornell>Weiland>staley>cobain>vedder
Slither is my jam, damn shame.
>>60805264
Staley > Cornell > Weiland > Cobain > Vedder
vedder is the most influential Singer in last 30 years
>>60805427
for better or worse this is true. but Weiland really came into his own as a singer when he stopped imitating him. none of the other copycats did the same and that's why they are remembered less fondly (Bush, Silverchair, etc)
>>60805366
>Ranking Weiland and Vedder over Cobain
>>60805443
Cobain is totally inferior to Vedder and Weiland though. his singing style is a mess.
>>60805264
>Staley
>Weiland
>Cornell
>Vedder
>Cantrell

>Cobain
>>60805475
Kurt only really did "anguished wail" well...everything else was weak. Scott did everything except "angry" pretty well, Eddie is weaker than both. Chris is pretty decent all round.
>>60805492
I thought Vedder was great because he seemed to never get tired, and a lot of his songs require energy and endurance. Cobain and Weiland, while perhaps more talented, seemed like they were more limited by their addictions.
>>60805475
Have you heard his acoustic shit? The heroin and stepped throat might of fucked up his voice during his last months.

Kurt was also really good at sounding sad, in my opinion.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aoySSBwQVso
Courtney did it.
>>60805574
to get back at him for this diss track https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DTXEg-S1cc
Cornell
Staley
Vedder-weiland
Covein

Does he count?
>>60805531
He sounds like Jeff fucking Mangum
apparently his latest drug of choice was CRACK

Why is it always the singers that die first?
>>60805713
what about led zeppelin and the who?
>>60805440
this is true
is it weird that news like this really makes me want to do heroin and shit
i'm not even depressed or anything i think i'm just tempted by the drugged out skinny destructive rockstar cliche
im pathetic :(
>>60805713
Because they use drugs to help write better lyrics and songs
>>60805793
I kind of get what you're saying.
Scott probably lived more in 48 years than the average American white male does in 73 (average lifespan for that demographic).
>>60805633
he should but blind melon were more tie dyed alternative and jammy than grunge
>>60805713
more exposure as a frontman, more fame and success that goes to their head?
Or that they are more emotionally intense, which they channel into good singing and lyrics. Use drugs as escape.
>>60805854
also when they die its a bigger story
Dear Scott,
Let us start by saying thank you for sharing your life with us.
Together we crafted a legacy of music that has given so many people happiness and great memories.
The memories are many, and they run deep for us.
We know amidst the good and the bad you struggled, time and time again.
It’s what made you who you were.
You were gifted beyond words, Scott.
Part of that gift was part of your curse.
With deep sorrow for you and your family, we are saddened to see you go.
All of our love and respect.
We will miss you brother,
Robert, Eric, Dean
>Are you fucking kidding me? Billy Corgan practically wrote an essay compared to these three stooges. Do they just not care?
Tiny Music is easily their best. Only album they've put out that can't be construed as buttrock.
>>60806040
It is their best, but Shangri-La was also very not buttrock.
I've been really down about this all day.
It was inevitable, especially seeing his state in the past couple years.
But what a fucking bummer.
Do we know if it was accidental or suicide?
Will there now be a "Teens React to Stone Temple Pilots"?
>>60806040
I'd sooner listen to buttrock than this.
https://youtu.be/x2_dGkqYu6M
I mean, the verse is cool until the vocals come in but the chorus is shit.
STP, Hum, and Smashing Pumpkins were the only 90s bands to make the drums sound perfect.
>>60806135
Then why are you in this thread. Do you have nothing better to do than try to shit talk a dead man's music
>>60806135
But that's a good song, anon. Very reflective of the pop music sensibilities Scott was influenced by. Not as good as this of course: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ds_43MdYiuQ
>>60803815
I only know one song by this guy because it was in GTA: San Andreas.
Not into post-grunge.
>>60806153
I like the first two albums. I'm bigger on Purple than Core though.
I might have to give Tiny Music another listen though. I'm pretty sure I liked most of it except for that song actually thinking back.
>>60806197
Art School Girlfriend is probably my least favorite song on the album, when I think about it. I still like its joviality.
>>60805972
there's animosity there. He was kind of an odd man out. He said they were "the musicians" and they saw him as "the artsy guy" and that any mistake he made was magnified while theirs were somewhat downplayed.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWWRqjzX7YE
talks about getting raped too
>>60805360
Why the fuck is Vedder on the list anyways. Not even really part of 90s grunge.
>>60805427
Weiland at his best was better than Vedder at his best. And their styles aren't even comparable beyond the first STP record.
>>60805972
sad stuff man.
>>60806269
skip to 30:10, Howard says "Do you think those guys like you? I don't." Then Weiland goes into detail
>>60805574
Courtney has been the bane of trouble since the 90s aside with Drew Barrymore and Anna Nicole Smith
I'm surprised, no yee fags, hipsters or trolls in this thread.
>>60806547
Third time's the charm.

RIP greatest 90s buttrock man! /mu/ will never be the same with out you man...
*plays with arms wide open*
Plush was the first rock song I learned on guitar.
RIP Scott
>>60806621
Dean DeLeo is a bastard when it comes to his chords. I kept getting frustrated trying to learn his shit.

Scott doesn't deserve to be on this list

Eddie Vedder does not have a good voice. At all.
