Stone Temple Pilots to release new album

Scott Weiland has confirmed that the Stone Temple Pilots will release a follow up to their 2010 self-titled album in a recent interview with Billboard. Better yet for fans of the band, he mentioned to them that he expects work to begin at some point this month.

“They usually start before me, just getting some rough ideas together and then putting rough ideas down on ProTools with no lyrics and no melody,” he explains. “And then I start listening to it and see if it’s just a straight-ahead rock ‘n’ roll record or if it’s more of a concept album like (2001’s) ‘Shangri-La Dee Da’ was. Once we decide that, it should go full speed ahead.”
