INTERVIEW: SHAWN ROCK CHATS WITH COREY TAYLOR OF STONE SOUR/SLIPKNOT

It’s not everyday I have the opportunity to talk with Corey Taylor. I wish he could drop in during the Rock Lunch more often. Corey has a billion things going on which gives him a billion things to talk about.

I was excited to hear more about Stone Sour’s new album, Hydrograd out June 30th via Roadrunner and how it all came together for the band. What I didn’t expect in this conversation was for Corey to open up about his political views, blow up tube dudes, and his adoration for Henry Rollins. As it turns out we have a lot in common.
