Weiland tells Billboard, "I was never in the band. It was something I did when I wasn't doing anything. I was asked to write some lyrics and sing some melodies on the project. But it's not a band I'm in."

The singer's claims run counter to what Bumblefoot recently told Rolling Stone, "The five of us made an album together. Scott is currently the singer of the band. It's in writing; no confusion. But yes, Scott's solo album and tour are his priority and we're all on the same page about getting another vocalist if Art of Anarchy hits the road.
