Stone Temple Pilots is an alternative rock band that was formed in 1986 in San Diego, California. Originally known as "Mighty Joe Young," they later changed their name to Stone Temple Pilots, inspired by the STP Oil logo. With their unique sound and powerful lyrics, Stone Temple Pilots have become one of the most influential bands in the alternative rock genre.
Since their formation, Stone Temple Pilots have released several critically acclaimed albums and achieved commercial success with hits like "Plush," "Interstate Love Song," and "Vasoline." Their music combines elements of grunge, hard rock, and psychedelic rock, creating a distinctive sound that sets them apart from other bands.
With their energetic live performances and charismatic frontman Scott Weiland (1967-2015), Stone Temple Pilots have captivated audiences around the world. Despite facing challenges throughout their career, including lineup changes and personal struggles, the band has remained resilient and continues to create music that resonates with fans old and new.

Atlantic is a renowned US record label that was founded in 1947 by Ahmet Ertegun, Herb Abramson, and Miriam Abramson. Over the years, it has grown into one of the leading companies in the music industry, known for its commitment to artistry and quality. In 1967, Atlantic was purchased by Warner Bros. film studio and operated alongside ATCO Records as separate entities. The label continued to expand its influence when it acquired Elektra in 1970, forming the Warner-Elektra-Atlantic alliance.
Today, Atlantic remains a part of the Warner Music Group and forms the Atlantic Music Group along with Elektra, Rhino Records (2), Lava, and EastWest Records America. The label's iconic Saul Bass designed W logo was introduced in 1975. With a rich history spanning decades and an impressive roster of artists, Atlantic continues to be a powerhouse in the music industry.
Please note that some releases may have different catalog numbers or codes on their sleeves or labels which are not part of the official catalog number. Additionally, early releases had yellow labels until January 1956 when they switched to red labels. French singles and EPs also have distinct catalog number patterns based on genre.

Stone Temple Pilots roared on to the scene 25 years ago with their raucous debut Core. A breakout success, the album peaked at number 3 on the Billboard charts, dominated radio waves with hits like Sex Type Thing and Wicked Garden, and has been certified 8x Platinum. The band also took home the 1994 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance for their smash single Plush. To mark the legendary album’s silver anniversary, Stone Temple Pilots release a new Edition on September 29th, which is 25 years to the day of the album’s original debut. The first disc features a newly remastered version of the original album. Nearly all of the music on the second disc of both versions is making its commercial debut. Of the nine demos included, four were recorded between 1987 and 1990 when the band was known as Mighty Joe Young. One of those, Only Dying, is an unheard song the band had planned to re-record in 1994 for The Crow Soundtrack. The idea was later scrapped after the star of the film, Brandon Lee, was killed during production. The disc continues with five unreleased demos from their original Atlantic sessions and concludes with four b-sides, including the jazzy Swing Type Version of Sex Type Thing, as well as two acoustic versions of Plush' - the 'Acoustic Type Version” recorded with the full band and the rarely heard “first take” that was recorded by Weiland and Dean DeLeo for MTV’s Headbanger’s Ball in 1993. The third disc contains two fiery live recordings from the summer of 1993, the first an unreleased performance at Castaic Lake Natural Amphitheater near Los Angeles and the second from the Reading Festival, making its U.S. debut here. These high-energy shows feature performances of all but two songs from Core as well as an early live version of Lounge Fly, a song the band has just written a month earlier that would appear the following year on the band’s second album Purple. The band’s iconic appearance on MTV Unplugged, recorded in November 1993, gets its first official release on the final CD in the set. This would be their last performance in support of Core and includes reworked, acoustic versions of Wicked Garden and Sex Type Thing, the debut performance of Big Empty, which would later appear on Purple, and a cover of David Bowie’s Andy Warhol.2CD - Softpack Double CD Set that contains a newly remastered version of the album, along with rare B-sides and previously unreleased demos. 5LP - 4CD and 1 DVD Set.
