Cinder dedicate new song 'Rocket Boy' to Scott Weiland

“Rocket Boy” — a song inspired by Cinder’s mentor and “Break Your Silence” producer, the late Scott Weiland.


Young lifted some of the song’s lyrics from an interview Weiland gave to Esquire magazine shortly before he died of a heroin overdose in 2015. The song has a Stone Temple Pilots vibe, he says, and lyrics that refer to Weiland’s childhood, his drug habit and more.

“It turned into a tribute to him,” Young says. “He would have loved the song.”

Thanks for the info, Rik. This post made me, as I type this, listen to Lush, which I don't think I've played in years.
