I don't know if this will work for y'all, but try this: http://www.techverse.net/access-listen-pandora-radio-outside-us/


Otherwise you'll have to find some other proxy to make Pandora think you're using an IP address from the USA.


If what I said doesn't make sense (it barely does to me; I've never had to use a proxy....) just Google "how to listen to Pandora outside the country" or something along those lines, and I'm sure somebody will be able to point you in the right direction.

Beach Pop is so fuckin' cool.  8) The lyrics certainly aren't the best on the album, but the whole groove & vibe.

This album caught me completely off guard.

Despite having heard most of the songs previously, and having high expectations, I didn't think I'd enjoy Blaster this much. I may doubt Scott Weiland as a person, and sometimes as a live performer, but it's hard to doubt him when it comes to the studio. I felt a joy while listening to the album that I haven't felt since hearing the original STP records for the first time. Maybe because some of the songs called to mind STP, particularly the bridge of Parachute and some of the guitar solos. It even has the standout track, "Circles", that the last STP record lacked. This is the record that S/T should've been. I can't wait until I can get this record on my phone and listen until I'm sick of it.

In the end, it's a bittersweet feeling. Bitter because this should have existed under the STP name, but sweet because it exists.

Scott's still got it, this album rocks. I give it an 8.5/10 first listen.

This worked for me, listening to it right now! :)

In addition to the actual songs...sonically, there's so much to enjoy too. Great tones.

On first listen, Im loving Blaster. Standout songs to me are: Amethyst, Beach Bop, and Circles, if only choosing 3. I listened to it once in my car that has terrible speaker so I hope that the production is better than it sounded through those things.

This is the record that S/T should've been.

It feels a bit sacreligious for me to say it, but I agree.  So much better than S/T.  I'm surprised how good this album actually is.
We like the cars...the cars that go BOOM!

Same here. Don't get me wrong, I'm expecting the digital download from Pledge Music in a timeous fashion but there's nothing like having the disc in your hands.

If it's half as good as people are saying, it'll be well worth the wait.
