Scott Weiland's Son Noah Fired From Suspect208 For Alleged Drug Use

JAKARTA - Up-and-coming Los Angeles hard rock band Suspect208 - featuring London Hudson, son of Guns N 'Roses guitarist Slash and Tye Trujillo, son of Metallica bassist Rob Trujillo - is looking for a new vocalist.

They decided to part with Noah Weiland, the son of the late Stone Temple Pilots frontman Scott Weiland because of drug use.

London and Tye said that their decision to leave Noah was because they felt the vocalist was heading for a dark path of drug use that damaged their friendship and the band.

"We are really close to him and that is the last thing we want to do," said the group.

Meanwhile, the band's guitarist Niko Tsangaris added in a statement: “But it must be done for his safety, as well as the longevity of the band. This decision was made by the band because it's the last thing we can do to move forward. "

“He is heading for a dark road on drug use that is blocking our friendship and the band. Lastly, there are many examples of explosions due to the very minor problems we face. We wish him the best, and we really care for him. However, we are doing as much as we can to help him. Thanks to those who stayed with us on this trip, we are very grateful. "

Weiland's exit left the door open for other talented young singers to head up the band.

Suspect208 has posted job advertisements on social media, encouraging LA-based singers between the ages of 18 and 24 to submit recordings of their vocals covering Led Zeppelin's song Black Dog.

Suspect208 has released two singles, Long Awaited and All Black, in 2020.
