The band confirmed these assertions and that lyricists like Bob Dylan, and guitarists like Speedy West and Brad Whitford were influences. Most critics agreed that Stone Temple Pilots was heavily inspired by country and rock music from the 1960s and 1970s. The album received generally favorable reviews. The album was completed in December 2009, and mixing and mastering were finished by February 2010. Don Was came in as an additional producer to help keep the band's separate recording sessions in sync, as well as to work closely with Weiland during the recording of his vocals. Scott Weiland recorded vocals at his own Lavish Studios. Three studios were used simultaneously, including Robert's home studio and Eric Kretz's Bomb Shelter Studios. Because recording took place during breaks in the band's touring schedule, production took nearly ten months to complete. Robert DeLeo, against Atlantic Records' wishes, insisted that he and his brother Dean DeLeo produce the record themselves, which began production in early 2009.

The album is also the band's final release with the full original lineup, as vocalist Scott Weiland was dismissed from the band in 2013, and died in 2015. Atlantic eventually withdrew the lawsuit, and the band's attorney called the legal situation a 'misunderstanding'. After Stone Temple Pilots had begun playing together, the band decided to record again, but a lawsuit filed by Atlantic Records on JuneВ 12, 2008, made the sixth album an uncertainty.

The album is the result of the band's reunion, which occurred in April 2008 with their North American tour. The album was released worldwide from MayВ 21 through MayВ 27, 2010, and is the band's first album since 2001's Shangri-La Dee Da. Stone Temple Pilots is the sixth studio album by American rock band Stone Temple Pilots.
