Stone Temple Pilots singer Scott Weiland is doing interviews to promote his newly-released Christmas album, “The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year.”

The album presents Weiland singing Xmas standards in a variety of styles, including big band swing, orchestrated ballads, reggae, bossa nova and more.

While speaking with Billboard about his latest solo effort, Scott promises that "there is another album coming" to follow 2010's self-titled effort.

The group plays three shows in South America this month, then Weiland expects his bandmates to start working on new material.

"They usually start before me, just getting some rough ideas together and then putting rough ideas down on ProTools with no lyrics and no melody," he explains. "And then I start listening to it and see if it's just a straight-ahead rock 'n' roll record, or if it's more of a concept album, like (2001's) 'Shangri-La Dee Da' was. Once we decide that, it should go full speed ahead."
