Nº4 by Stone Temple Pilots.

Released in 2000 and now pressed to vinyl for the very first time by Music On Vinyl, "Nº4" captures Stone Temple Pilots at a defined turning point in their catalog. This edition presents the album as a properly considered object: 180 gram audiophile vinyl housed in a die-cut sleeve, complete with an insert and art directed by Andrea Brooks and Richard Bates working from the band's own design concept. For anyone who followed the group through the shifting rock landscape of that era, seeing this record finally cut to wax carries real weight.

Musically, the album bears the stamp of Brendan O'Brien, who both produced and mixed the sessions and helped shape the muscular, hook-forward sound that defines the band's fourth record. Recording was handled by Nick Didia and Russ Fowler with a deep bench of assistant engineers, while Stephen Marcussen's mastering lends the whole thing clarity and punch. The result balances heavy, riff-driven momentum against the melodic instincts that always set Stone Temple Pilots apart.

Pressed on quiet, heavyweight vinyl and mastered with care, this is a record that rewards playing loud and playing often. The die-cut sleeve and insert make it a genuinely collectible piece, and its status as the first-ever vinyl issue gives it lasting appeal. A satisfying find for rock collectors and STP devotees alike.
