Corey Taylor Stone Quotations

I will always make music with Stone Sour. Stone Sour will always be here.

But I always kind of knew in the back of my head that I could come back and do Stone Sour.

As much as I love Slipknot, I don't want that to carry over into what I do for Stone Sour. I want both bands to stand on their own.

Slipknot is the darkness; Stone Sour is the light. Slipknot is chaos; Stone Sour is structure.

There's a certain darkness to Slipknot, but at the same time, there's a very strong dose of positivity. Stone Sour is the same way. There's a certain melancholy that comes with the slower stuff, but at the end of the day there's also that other side that is very positive. It's all how you deliver.

There's nothing wrong with the screaming style of singing, and I'll be the first to admit that it conveys an emotion. But I'm getting older, and I can't scream and shout about the same things anymore. The songs I'm writing with Stone Sour call for a lighter, different approach.
