Stone Temple Pilots. Tiny Music... Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop (1996)

Tiny Music... Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop was the third CD released by Stone Temple Pilots on March 26, 1996, by Atlantic Records. The album is notable for the variety of stylistic departures it takes from the band's earlier albums.

In 1995, Weiland was caught and convicted of buying crack cocaine. He was sentenced to one year's probation. Issues with drug use did not clear up after his sentence, and STP was forced to cancel most of their 1996-1997 tour for Tiny Music. Because of the tour cancellation, Tiny Music did not receive as much exposure as initially intended. The album was certified 2x platinum but was not nearly as commercially successful as STP's first two albums.
