Análisis (en inglés) - :
{^No. 4} gave {$Stone Temple Pilots} the comeback they were looking for, albeit a little later and a little differently than expected. Nearly a year after its release, {&"Sour Girl"} gave the band its biggest hit in years, and it set up their fifth album, {^Shangri-La Dee Da}, perfectly. They seized this opportunity by turning out the same record as the time before, splitting the difference between heavy rockers and sugar-sweet {\psych-pop} tunes. That's not a bad thing, nor is it unexpected, since they've basically been staking this same territory since {^Tiny Music}, yet at this point, it feels as if {$the Pilots} are comfortably within a musical groove, no matter how much turmoil they have privately. And, while this doesn't result in a particularly surprising record, it's not an album that's bad, either. Here, as on {^4}, they're not just better on the {\pop} tunes, they're phenomenal on the {\pop} tunes. Regardless of their critical reputation, no {\rock} band of their time turned out such a consistently dazzling streak of {\pop} tunes. Sometimes, the rockers do catch hold -- {&"Dumb Love"} provides a gripping opening, {&"Hollywood Bitch"} has a real sense of propulsion, the dreamy {&"Hello It's Late"} has a gentle rush of its own -- but, by this point, they don't seem as interesting as the excursions into {\psych-pop} that gives {^Shangri-La Dee Da} its real core. That's nothing new, but that's not a bad thing at all. [The Japanese release adds a bonus video montage.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
