Chester Bennington hired as STPs new lead singer

Let's not fool ourselves, Scott Weiland was at his best doped up on heroin.

Cleaned up, he and stp were responsible for that garbage album Shangrila De Da

Absolutely. But the damage to his pipes was just beginning so it worked. Twenty years later his brains are fried and so are his vocal chords

He had a great voice during his Velvet Revolver stint a few years ago too.

Contraband was really good.

Contraband was really good.

For sure. I liked just about every song.

I actually thought VR's second album was much better than their first, yet it sold poorly.

It's pretty clear SW is a pain to work with; but as was said he's also amazing when doped up. "Trippin on a Hole in a Paper Heart" is maybe my favorite STP song, and if you read the lyrics, it's obviously the ramblings of someone stoned. I mean the chorus is like he just started writing down things down he saw in a room.

I love Stone Temple Pilots and I love Linkin Park but I thought that song was terrible.
