Stone Temple Pilots has unceremoniously FIRED its lead singer Scott Weiland ... who's been the face of the seminal rock band for more than 20 years.
The group released an ominously curt statement today, saying, "Stone Temple Pilots have announced they have officially terminated Scott Weiland." They don't give any further explanation.
It's pretty shocking for several reasons ... the main being Weiland has been a core member of the group since it came together in 1986. His voice has become synonymous with STP's sound ... on hits like "Plush," "Sour Girl," and "Sex Type Thing."
Another reason this came out of nowhere ... Weiland denied rumors he was leaving the band just yesterday, telling Rolling Stone, "STP has not broken up. I haven't quit. I haven't been fired."
Rumors of a split began a couple of months ago when Slash said STP had fired Weiland.
STP reformed in 2008 after a 5-year hiatus and toured through last year -- but apparently it hasn't been working out.
So far, it's unclear who STP has in mind to replace Weiland ... if anyone.
Weiland is set to launch a solo tour next month.

Re: Weiland Fired
I'm not his hugest fan, but pull your shit together dude. You're gonna die.
Yeah, I'm assuming a relapse is in play here, my apologies in advance if I'm wrong.
Looks like it.
Don't like you as an artist Scott, but get it together man. The possibilities are almost endless for someone like you.

Re: Weiland Fired
My bro got me into STP; so I'm a fan of the music they did with Scott and what he did with VR. The problem is he needs to stop acting like an egotistical piece of shit and get it together. He blew it. That's all I can say.

Re: Weiland Fired
I don't either; but he needs to shape up and finally realize his mistakes. I'm sensing a combination of flexing his ego too much with rude behavior and a relapse. Very sad.

Re: Weiland Fired
Saw this on the cards when he started ranting about a VR reunion a few months back.
Like how he started ranting about STP while he was making life hard for the VR boys.
Now that he's burnt them both must be at rock bottom.
Hope he gets well as I like his music...and if he could defeat this then he'd be great.
