Discussion Metal or non-metal stp
Do you prefer the metal stuff from stp (core, parts of purple, most of no.4) or the non Metal stuff (tiny music, the psychadelic stuff on purple, most of SLDD)

Thats why STP was one of the best bands to exist. They changed their style so much, really more so than any other of their peers. Like would you ever expect the band who sang Sex Type Thing to also sing A Song For Sleeping?

I don't care, I'm into it for the hooks.
Best radio rock band of the 90s.

I wouldn't even consider STP's heavier songs metal, like Down, Silvergun Superman, and Piece of Pie. If anything, I'd consider it hard rock. Between heavy and softer STP, I like a good mix of both
