Stone Temple Pilots have tweeted out an apology to fans from their label Rhino Records regarding their new live album Live 2018.
“There is a manufacturing error on vinyl copies of Live 2018 that was caused by defective lathe, resulting in the album playing at a 4% slower speed. We deeply apologize for this unfortunate occurence and promise to provide replacement copies to everyone that purchased. To receive a replacement copy in a black sleeve, please send an email to Rhino Customer Service at drrhino@rhino.com with all the details below. New vinyl is being pressed now and replacement copies will be shipping out ASAP. We are very sorry for this and thank everyone for their patience and continued loyalty. We will make this right.”
Stone Temple Pilots’ last live released was their 2012 live DVD ‘Alive in the Windy City.’ It would be the band’s final release with Scott Weiland before his firing from the band in 2013. Live 2018 is STP’s first live release with Jeff Gutt, who joined the band a year ago in November 2017. The band released a self-titled album in March.
