With "Tiny Music..." STP has strayed away from their grunge sound and let their creative juices flow, a formula that will leave many fans disappointed. However, the fans who approach "Tiny Music" with an open mind will find (perhaps after a few listens) that this album is every bit as good as "Core" or "Purple." It may not have the heart-pounding guitar riffs or the RPM's that those albums do, but what it lacks in heaviness, it makes up in ambition.
