Scott Stapp of Creed fame has officially been announced as Scott Weiland‘s replacement in the ‘supergroup’, Art Of Anarchy. Stapp himself confirmed the news, following some speculation that he had joined Stone Temple Pilots—rumors which the latter quickly denied. In a statement posted today (May 03rd) to his Facebook, Stapp offered:
“What’s up, Stapp here, I wanted to clarify any confusions on STP and my comment. First off, Scott Weiland in STP is irreplaceable. I was recently asked what I’m currently working on in an interview and could not reveal details or announce this new project. This led the interviewer to assume it was STP and he eagerly kept asking for more details. Evidently my response caused confusion.
- Advertisement -I’m excited to share I’ve been working with Art Of Anarchy band whose members are Ron “Bumblefoot” Thal, formerly of Guns N Roses, John Moyer of Disturbed and Jon and Vince Votta. Original announcement was slated for July along with our first single and album to follow but happy to share this announcement sooner to clarify.
Art Of Anarchy is the project that I was referring to in the interview not STP. Scott Weiland was a part of Art of Anarchy and that’s the six degrees of separation I was referring to. Always been a fan of STP and I wish them all the best in their search for a new singer.
Allow me to introduce Art Of Anarchy. Stay tuned”
You may recall that while Weiland appeared on Art Of Anarchy‘s debut release as well as their music video, he quickly became estranged from the band.
