We’re still a good two months away from Stone Temple Pilots‘ forthcoming self-titled, reunion LP, but that doesn’t mean we can’t get excited. Rock fans waiting for some real Scott Weiland action will be pleased to know a new single is right around the corner. How soon? Well, within a week or two most likely, as Spin unveiled a 30-second clip of the first radio digestible, “Between the Lines”, this morning.

With crunchy guitars that get stuck in your teeth and that Jim Morrison-esque fuzz that sounds like Purple-era Weiland, “…Lines” just might be the single every STP fan needs. Of course, it’s only 30 seconds, but we’ll stay optimistic — especially since Robert DeLeo insists it’s going to be “a great STP record.”

Until live cuts leak this weekend from Austin, TX, enjoy the 30 seconds here.
