Stone Temple Pilots has announced the upcoming release of their hugely
anticipated new album. “STONE TEMPLE PILOTS” – the Grammy Award-winning
band’s first all-new collection in close to a decade – will arrive in stores
and at all online retailers around the globe on May 25th.
Produced by Stone Temple Pilots and mixed by Chris
Lord-Alge (Green Day, Dave Matthews Band, My Chemical Romance), “STONE TEMPLE
PILOTS” sees one of rock’s biggest bands continuing to explore their enduring
approach to music – melding big rock riffs, classic pop hooks, and experimentation with glam, punk, and psychedelia.
Stone Temple Pilots – Scott Weiland, Dean DeLeo,
Robert DeLeo, and Eric Kretz – will introduce fans to the new album at their
first live date of 2010, performing as part of the annual South By Southwest
(SXSW) Music Festival in Austin, Texas. The show – slated for Thursday,
March 18th at the famed Austin Music Hall, and presented by StubHub,
the world’s largest ticket marketplace – kicks off an extensive worldwide 2010
schedule for STP, with U.S. dates, radio festivals, and a European tour slated
to follow (see attached itinerary). A full-scale North American summer
tour will also be announced in the coming weeks – for up-to-the-minute news and

A dominant force
in rock music since the early ‘90s, Stone Temple Pilots proved one of the most
accomplished and iconic bands of their generation, racking up 15 Billboard
Top 10 singles – 6 of which hit #1 – and total sales in excess of 35 million
albums worldwide. The California-based band went on hiatus in 2002,
following the release of the critically acclaimed “SHANGRI-LA DEE DA,”
ultimately reuniting for a massive 2008 concert tour encompassing more than 65
dates across North America.
Among their many accolades, Stone Temple Pilots
received a “Best Hard Rock Performance with Vocal” Grammy Award for their #1
Mainstream Rock smash, “Plush.” Other honors bestowed upon the band over
the years include additional Grammy award nominations, two American Music Awards,
one Billboard Music Award, two Billboard Video Awards, and an MTV Video Music
Award.
