Like it. Sounds like it could have been on the last album, which I really liked. That whole album, to be, sort of had this vibe of them doing songs, each of which, were meant to show that particular song's influence.

There was some 70s Glam-sounding stuff, an Aerosmith-type feel on another, etc. Then, the first single seemed to be an STP sound evolved to that point. Was interesting.

Really dug the Bowie influence on First Kiss on Mars. I used to cover Between The Lines, and all aside from one performance, it always tanked with the crowd. It was a shame too, because that song is really cool. I suppose the general public isn't too familiar with any STP output much past Interstate Love Song. :?

That's really good! Catchy, gritty, a little bit quirky, tasty guitar solo. The main riff reminds me of Zep's "Sick Again".

Yep. And Deleo's got a really good Earl Slick feel on the rhythm parts (Earl's great!).

That one in particular, has a similar thing to Weiland's solo albums, a lot of which had a Roxy Music-type thing going.
