    listen to some Bad Radio songs such as Believe In Me and there's a sure Bono inflection in Ed's voice.

    What about Gavin Rossdale? A definite case 'seattle sound' imitation.

    STP recorded a demo under the name Mighty Joe Young around 1990, BEFORE Pearl Jam were known, and they essentially still sound like STP, and more to the point, Weiland still has that deeper voice that everybody is so quick to compare to Vedder's. In addition 4 of the songs from the demo ended up on Core

    Here is the PROOF

    The chances are that STP were probably signed because of Pearl Jam's success and stylistically of course there are similarities, but there is no doubt that STP had their own sound before Pearl Jam came on the scene. Therefore all you doubters are all talking cobblers! :p

    I personally love STP, not as much as Pearl Jam, but they have written some of the most memorable songs of the past 15 years.

    Still does'nt explain the facial expressions! :D

    Well most of the 'serious' rock singers from the late 80's/early 90's pulled those facial expressions, plus given Weiland's flamboyant dancing which he was doing from the get-go, I think it's safe to say that he had his own identity.
