Label to STP: We've Got You by the Stones

Scott Weiland wants out of his contract with Atlantic Records, but the label's telling the STP frontman not so fast.

Atlantic Records is suing Weiland and STP drummer Eric Kretz in Manhattan District Court, claiming that the pair have tried to put a contractual gun to their heads, threatening to walk out of their contract unless the label makes changes to it. Atlantic says that they're owed at least one more album, and have an option for two more.

Weiland, who just spent ten hours in jail for DUI last month, and Kretz didn't have any immediate comment. The Pilots got back together last month for their first national tour in eight years.
