MaverThe disc will be issued through
Atlantic Records, although vocalist
Scott Weiland told
The Pulse of Radio at the time of the band's 2008 reunion tour that he was interested in exploring other options outside the traditional music industry. "When we first talked about putting
STP back together, it was do this tour and then see about doing a creative deal with another company, like an all-in deal," he said. "And, you know, if you look at even like
RADIOHEAD and a handful of other bands, they make more money doing things in an unconventional fashion as opposed to doing it, you know, with the major labels."
STONE TEMPLE PILOTS reunited in 2008 after a six-year layoff. The band's last album,
"Shangri-La-Dee-Da", came out in 2001.
STONE TEMPLE PILOTS will be featured on
