Weiland to Front Gn’R Band

STP singer says the new group will be called Reloaded

By CARRIE BORZILLO-VRENNA

After two recorded songs and months of speculation, Stone Temple Pilots singer Scott Weiland confirmed that he will be the singer for the band featuring former Guns n’ Roses members Slash (guitar), Duff McKagan (bass) and Matt Sorum (drums). According to Weiland, the secretive group, which has been working under the name “the Project,” will be called Reloaded.

“Yeah, I’m in the band,” Weiland told Rolling Stone during Marilyn Manson’s show at Los Angeles’ Key Club on Monday night. “We signed the contract.”

Sorum, who attended the Manson show with Weiland, was more guarded about the singer’s involvement. “I need to ask my whole band before we can say anything,” he said. “We left the studio tonight to come down here to see Manson.”

Sorum and company had been searching for a frontman for the better part of a year. In addition to an open call for demo tapes, they tried out a stable of well-known singers including Sebastian Bach (Skid Row), Travis Meek (Days of the New), Kelly Shaefer (Neurotica), Josh Todd (Buckcherry) and A. Jay Popoff (Lit). VH1 has been filming the tryouts and sessions for an upcoming special.

Last month, Weiland seemed to gain the pole position when he recorded a cover of Pink Floyd’s “Money” with the band and guitarist David Kushner (Suicidal Tendencies, Wasted Youth) for The Italian Job soundtrack, due May 26th.

According to a post on the Stone Temple Pilots Web site, Reloaded also worked on a new song called “Set Me Free” for The Hulk soundtrack and hope to release a full-length record by February 2004.
