Here's an audio rip.
Hopefully they make this song available for purchase.

Well, why in the world wasn't this on Blaster?


Much better than Parachute, in my humble opinion. Either could've replaced that track, or their cover of 20th Century Boy. The melody is strong, its got that killer swagger, and Scott's voice sounds incredibly strong-- I'm a bit surprised! Has a bit more gruff to it.

I agree that it's a good track. Whether or not it was included doesn't phase me as much as the fact that being exclusive to the app all but guarantees that it gets lost in the abyss.

Thank you for uploading. The song is just ok - I was waiting for a chorus but didn't hear one. I wouldn't have included it on the album.

Yeah, it's OK. It doesn't really go anywhere though, and the main riff we've heard a thousand times.

As usual though, Scott is the master of the middle eight, and totally takes the song on a melodic tangent for about 60 seconds that makes the song that much more memorable.

Riff sounds a lot like Jean Genie, it's meh.
When STP had a cookout after filming the video for the Core single "Plush," Weiland made jerk chicken that was "spectacular," Dean raves.
