Scott Weiland And The Wildabouts - Blaster (2015)

Posted By: Designol

Blaster is the fourth and final solo studio album by American musician Scott Weiland. The album was released on March 31, 2015, by Softdrive Records. It was the first and only album to be released under the moniker Scott Weiland & The Wildabouts. The album was supported by the singles "White Lightning", "Way She Moves" and "20th Century Boy".

Emerging from a seven-year semi-hiatus – one broken for the release of Christmas and covers albums, plus a flirtation with playing in a band called Art of Anarchy with Bumblefoot – Scott Weiland returns to action with Blaster, the first record he's cut with a new backing band called the Wildabouts. The supporting cast may be new but the sounds remain the same: he's still enamored of the heavy metal, glam, and psychedelia that have formed his signature since the glory days of Stone Temple Pilots. With such a familiar palette, details matter and the aptly titled Blaster lacks in subtlety. Much of it churns at crackling digital overdrive, sounding brutal, loud, and ugly, but beneath that gnarled surface Weiland can still deliver the kind of candied hooks that keep him firmly situated as a guilty pleasure. Usually, these hooks grab hold on the lightest songs: the snaky sway of "Way She Moves," the icy new romanticism of "Youth Quake," and, especially, "Beach Pop," a piece of sticky AM bubblegum pop that earns its handclaps. These, along with the sweetly sun-kissed country-rock closer "Circles," are all the more appealing because they're surrounded by heavy rockers so big-footed they often stumble upon themselves. So, a mixed bag: good enough to satisfy and also to wish the whole thing was slightly better.
