Flannel-clad mall rats bought up yards of Purple, and the band took up extended residence on MTV, but Stone Temple Pilots broke little new ground. Which is no surprise. Suffering from the Dave Clark Five syndrome, the Pilots stand on the shoulders of giants (particularly Pearl Jam) and fail to measure up. Weiland's voice is a rugged beauty, and the Pilots' guitars hit hard; it's just that there's no getting over their strange fate � Stone Temple Pilots, even when undoubtedly trying for original licks, don't find them.
