Biografía de Godsmack

Godsmack is an American alternative metal/hard rock American band originally from Lawrence, Massachusetts. The current lineup consists of Sully Ema, Robbie Merrill, Tony Rombola and Shannon Larkin.

In February 1995, Sully Ema decided to start a band with Lee Richards on guitar, Robbie Merrill on bass and Tommy Stewart on drums, which they initially called The Scam. The name didn’t stick long, as they changed the name to Godsmack after they recorded their first demo. In 1996 Richards and Stewart left the band and were replaced by Tony Rombola and Joe D’Arco. For a few years the band would tour up and down the east coast, until in 1998 they signed with Universal/Republic Records.

In a mere six weeks later, the replaced D’Arco with former drummer Tommy Stewart and released their eponymous album; this was then followed by a series of shows and tours around America and Europe. The album was met with success, reaching certified gold by 2011. In 2000 they returned to the studio to record “Awake” which was later released in October. “Awake” reached four-times platinum, and the single “Vampire” garnered a Grammy Award nomination for Best Rock Instrumental Performance in 2002.

In 2003, Stewart once again left the band, due to personal reasons, and was replaced by Shannon Larkin. The following record “Faceless” went on to sell over a million copies along with a massive sold out tour with Metallica. In 2007 the band celebrated their being a band for ten years with the release of “Good Times, Bad Times...Ten Years of Godsmack,” that included a DVD of their live acoustic performance at the House of Blues, Las Vegas.

After taking about a yearlong hiatus, the band reunited to record and release “The Oracle” in 2010. The band headlined the Mayhem Festival, an annual heavy metal festival that travels throughout the United States, followed by a tour with Staind. In 2014 Ema announced that the band was working on new material, and in August they released “1000hp.”

Biografía de Stone Temple Pilots

Stone Temple Pilots (formed in 1985) is an American grunge, psychedelic and alternative rock band from San Diego, California, U.S.

Stone Temple Pilots, formerly known as Swing and Mighty Joe Young, was originally formed of frontman Scott Weiland, bassist Robert DeLeo, drummer Eric Kretz and guitarist Dean DeLeo. As Mighty Joe Young the band recorded and released a demo in 1990, many of which tracks featured on the band’s debut LP. After developing a fan base by playing regularly in the San Diego area they were informed the name Mighty Joe Young had already been claimed and thus came Stone Temple Pilots.

The band signed with Atlantic Records in 1992, the same year Stone Temple Pilots released their debut album “Core” which peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200. The album claimed significant commercial success, however the band were seen by the critical press as grunge imitators, copying the revered band such as Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains.

Stone Temple Pilots debuted the song “Big Empty” on an episode on MTV Unplugged in 1993 in anticipation of their sophomore album “Purple” in June 1994. Selling over three million copies in just four months, “Purple” was led by the hits “Vasoline” and “Interstate Love Song”.

Taking a more glam rock, psychedelic rock direction Stone Temple Pilots’ third studio album “Tiny Music… Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop” was recorded at a rented mansion in Santa Barbara, California, U.S. The album was a favourite of the band’s among critics although it failed to hold such popular commercial appeal as its predecessors. After the release Weiland, who had previously struggled with a heroin addiction, relapsed and the band cancelled their tour and support lot on Kiss’ reunion tour.

The band without Weiland under the moniker Talk Show released one eponymously titled album in 1997 before calling it a day. A year later frontman Weiland released his debut solo album “12 Bar Blues” in 1998 to moderate critical acclaim. The same year Stone Temple Pilots reunited and began work on “Shangri-La Dee Da” which got its release in the summer of 2001, although with a lack of label promotion the album was a commercial disappointment.

In 2003 label Atlantic Records pushed a greatest hits album, and frontman Weiland formed the successful supergroup Velvet Revolver with Guns N’ Roses members Slash, Matt Sorum and Duff McKagan and former Wasted Youth guitarist Dave Kushner. After releasing two album “Contraband” in 2004 and “Libertad” in 2007, Weiland left the group.

Stone Temple Pilots’ members reconciled with one another at a private beach party they were asked to play which led to the announcement of a 65-date North American tour and an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Shortly after in 2008 Weiland released his sophomore solo album ““Happy” in Galoshes” and the Stone Temple Pilots release a self-titled sixth studio album on May 25, 2010.

In 2013 it was announced Weiland had been fired from the group and his official replacement Chester Bennington of Linkin Park. Stone Temple Pilot's include Bennington release the single "Out of Time" in May 2013.

Godsmack: Hard hitting yet hypnotic Many casual listeners/concert goers would chalk this amazing band up to an Alice in Chains clone, but nothing could be further from the truth. True that the sludgy grunge infused sound is reminiscent of such, but Godsmack took it one step further toward the end of the '90's, updating the sound and putting an industrial/nu metal spin on it all their own. One could call it looking back while looking ahead simultaneously; namely transitional as there are turbulent and sludge passages with a modern sound fused with a trippy, hypnotic undercurrent. From Pantera to Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, and almost everyone in between, Godsmack's list of influences runs nearly the full gamut as evidenced both in concert and on the record. A true highlight of many performances of theirs I have seen and heard entails a dueling drumming interlude between skins man Shannon Larking and multi-instrumental front man Sully Erna, the latter of whose main instrument was once drums as well. Guitarist Tony Rombola and bassist Robbie Merrill bring heaviness and hard hitting riffs of their own to the table as well which make for a mix of both raucousness and meditativeness, sometimes in separate instances, and other times simultaneously combining them! For me also, the crowning touch the last concert we attended in 2012 was winning our way in to the show complete with a catered lunch and a chance to meet the group with a photo op and signing all included. They were very kind to us and as always were firing on all cylinders once they hit the stage. Kudos to them all the way!

If Scott Weiland is sober, he could’ve fooled me. Sober or not, I have to say Scott and the rest of Stone Temple Pilots are proving they arn’t just some over-aged rockers trying to cash in on a fading popularity. I only saw STP once in their heyday, at SDSU in 1995. I have now seen them 3 times in as many years since their reunion and they have never let me down, as improbable as that might sound. When STP announced their comeback in 2008 I probably would have laughed it off if I had not seen Velvet Revolver rock the shit out of the Live 8 stage in London a couple years prior. That show made me a believer in Weiland‘s rock-star skills, if not in his new found sobrity. The Berkeley stop was not only nostagilic, as I hoped it would be, it was a kick-ass rock show. This didn’t seem like a band just reliving the 90′s; they seemed current, fun and non-apologetic. They did the same thing at the Fillmore here in Denver the next year. I had serious doubts Weiland, who now resembles Eminem in his wife-beater, would make it long enough for me to see them once, much less twice. And now, here we are, 3 years later and they are headliningg Red Rocks…in support of a new album?!!! An album that doesn’t live up to their first 2, but is actually pretty damn good?!!! What the hell is going on? Unfortunately for STP, there is a difference between 2010 and 1995. In 1995 they would have been able to sell out back-to-back nights in any given city. In 2010 it’s hard to sell out two venues in the same city within an 8 month period. The Fillmore show was pretty packed last October. Red Rocks was much less so on Tuesday night. That being said, those who didn’t make it missed a great rock show. The weather was perfect; it doesn’t get much better than a warm evening with a cool breeze coming through Red Rocks. STP performed all their major hits like Wicked Garden, Interstate Love Song, Vasoline and Sex Type Thing. They did 4 or 5 from the new album, of which Huckleberry Crumble really resonanted live…a down and dirty blues number. A real highlight for me was Still Remains, a song from Purple they had not performed live in over 12 years. That, along with a cover of Led Zeppelin‘s Dancing Days, both brought me back to the carefree days of beach living in San Diego. The encore of Dead & Bloated and Trippin’ On a Hole in a Paper Heart (dedicated to the troops) ended the night right. To be honest, I wasn’t going to attend this show, but my wife had never seen them and we were able to score 15th row seats. The sound was amazing down there and the light show was pretty impressive. This was one of the few shows I have seen where the band didn’t prefer the natural rock backdrop on this iconic stage. But even though STP were labeled grunge, they always tilted away from that scene and more toward the glam of L.A.’s sunset strip…so I can see them prefering an over-the-top light show vs. some old red rocks.

Dorothy rocked the stage, she was absolutely amazing and flawless. If you love rock then Dorothy is the show to go to. Can't wait for her to come back to town.

I was in complete awe of her. Her vocals are phenomenal and she is so beautiful. The Band kept the energy up and the banter between band members between songs was pretty fun too.

Great great great show.
