Ear to the sound

There has been some debate amongst fans as to wether the supergroup are auditioning singers online via video hosting sites like youtube. Matt Sorum has been quoted as saying that the audition process is aided by online submission but wouldn’t confirm that they were looking on youtube for their new vocalist. This points towards an unknown singer perhaps, rather than an already established star. Some have suggested Chester Bennington (Linkin Park) would be brought in to complete the line up after Scott Weiland’s departure. There is no evidence of any decision being reached soon however, and the tour and next album hang in the balance. Meanwhile Duff Mckagan will tour the UK with his side project ‘Loaded’ during the autumn.
