STP's 'Core' Turns 29

Because it's that kind of day, and because why not, and because, actually, it's kind of awesome, here is the album cover for Stone Temple Pilots' debut album Core, recreated in LEGO by Adnan Lotia. Did you know Core is actually 29 years old now? I bet if you turned on your radio you'd be able to hear it playing somewhere. "I wanna run through your wicked garden heard that's the place to find you/ 'Cause I'm alive so alive now, I know the darkness blinds you." Is it really just Wednesday? Anyway, enjoy.

There were men with ironic beard and pretentious hairstyles dressed in rolled up chinos and check shirts; women in vintage sundresses, skinny jeans, and acid wash denim cutoff shorts; actors and models trying to look hip; and a bunch of call center agents who wanted to get drunk before they start their graveyard shifts.

Invisible People

Jinyoung Yu's art is a powerful statement about the duality of human existence – the conflict between who we are and who we pretend to be.
