1990年代グランジ・ムーヴメントで活躍、5枚のアルバムがトータルセールス2000万枚を記録しながら2003年に解散したSTPのベスト盤。「プラシ」「セックス・タイプ・シング」などの、飛ぶ鳥を落とす勢いの初期ナンバーも良いが、一過性のブームが終わった後のピュアなロック・バンド然とした中期以降の曲も、彼らのミュージシャンとしての充実を感じさせる。代表曲の数々を過不足なく聴くことができ、新曲も1曲収録。スコット・ウェイランドの力強さともろさを兼ね備えたヴォーカル、バンドのソングライティング巧者ぶりを改めて実感させられる。(山崎智之)
From their arrival in 1992 with the 8x-platinum "CORE," Stone Temple Pilots have consistently been among the forefront of modern rock 創� roll artists. With each album, the California-based quartet - Scott Weiland, Dean DeLeo, Robert DeLeo, and Eric Kretz - has pursued their own unique musical vision, an inspired sonic approach merging metallic riffs and baroque pop melodies with a punk-fuelled energy and a gift for psychedelic experimentation. As a result, Stone Temple Pilots have sold more than 20 million albums worldwide, and they rank among the top three most successful bands to emerge in the 1990s (along with Nirvana and Pearl Jam). Among their many accolades, Stone Temple Pilots received a "Best Hard Rock Performance with Vocal" Grammy Award for their #1 rock smash, "Plush." Other honors bestowed upon the band over the years include two American Music Awards, one Billboard Music Award, two Billboard Video Awards, and an MTV Video Music Award. In 2001, the band received a Grammy Award nomination in the "Best Hard Rock Performance" category for "Down" (from "No. 4").
