Stone Temple Pilots Cover+Tracklist

I've actually not been a fan of the Stone Temple Pilots outside of 'Plush', which is my motherfucking SHIT, but I just got word on their forthcoming self-titled studio album that's due out in May, so I figured I'd throw the press release up here. Cover art by Shephard Fairey (here's a higher-res shot). Hit the jump. Tracklisting:

Atlantic recording group STONE TEMPLE PILOTS has announced the upcoming release of their hugely anticipated self-titled studio album “STONE TEMPLE PILOTS.” This will be the first studio release since 2001’s certified gold “Shangri-La Dee Da.” The new album – which will be released on MAY 25th – will render the magic that has established the band as a dominate force in the rock scene for the past two decades, featuring tracks that original bassist, guitarist and vocalist, Robert DeLeo recently admitted to SPIN magazine as musically reminiscent of “Paul Revere and the Raiders” driven by the sound of the sixties.

STP kicked off their North American tour with a special SXSW showcase at famed Austin Music Hall on March 18th. See below/attached for more information, tour details and press tools. (Album artwork by Shepard Fairy; photo credit: Chapman Baehler.)
