Interesting Corey Taylor Interview; Future Of Slipknot, Velvet Revolver Rumours

Click Here to check out a really good interview with Stone Sour/Slipknot vocalist Corey Taylor. In the video he talks about the future of Slipknot, the state of the music industry, touring with Stone Sour, and gives a very strong hint that he could potentially be the new vocalist of Velvet Revolver.

I think the end could be nigh for Slipknot. The way he was talking about the band in the past tense was a pretty big give away that he's not interested in continuing the band without Paul. Also, I'm really eager to see if anything comes of these rumours that Corey's going to be the new vocalist of Velvet Revolver. I'd certainly want to see any live show that features Corey and Slash on the same stage.

Corey Taylor Interview​

 

I just can't see him with Velvet Revolver, as much as he's an amazing frontman.
But hey, I just want Scott back

 

I don't really care for Velvet Revolver and I didn't like the most recent Slipknot album, so if it were up to me he'd probably just concentrate on Stone Sour.

 

He seems to not want anything to do with Slipknot anymore, And i love Slipknot and I think Stone Sour is pretty cool. But to me Joining Velvet Revolver = end of Slipknot.

 

Slipknot seemed pretty ridiculously terrible from what I can recall of them, so anything but that is probably a set up, even if I don't really care for either of these bands either.

 

not even related to corey taylor, really, but did anyone listen to clown's To My Surprise side project? it was pretty awesome.

 

slipknot & stonesour are beginning to sound like the same band nowadays, and neither are particularly interesting me like they used to. good front man, it just seems he's becoming somewhat irrelevant; but, fuck, velvet revolver's all about nostalgia, i suppose.

& casey: i heard a few tunes, gotta admit, they were pretty fun.

 

I remember hearing one or two songs, they seemed pretty good.

 

Have you even heard the new Stone Sour album?

Although I'll admit there were a few songs on All Hope Is Gone that could easily pass for Stone Sour songs.

 

Well they have shows booked for the summer so SOMEONE is interested with doing Slipknot still. I hope Slipknot stays. I'd much rather have them than Stone Sour

 

Kind of hard to imagine Corey Taylor singing in a cock-rock band.

 

I'm a really big fan of slipknot and i hate this time right now because Corey is like ''I dont know we are going on tour but not make an album in the near future'' and joey is like ''Yeah Slipknot will continue and make tour and maybe a new album because Slipknot is my life'' so i dont blame Corey but he's is saying that he is the only one who cares about Paul's dead even though that paul was joey's best friend and corey first met Paul when the nine started so and Joey is like more positive but i hope they will continue because i really cant live without Slipknot

 

Yeah, I love Corey Taylor but he makes it seem like he dictates what Slipknot does. There are 7 other people in the band and I think they should have a say as well. I think everyone but Corey, and maybe James, are eager to continue with Slipknot. I want them to write another album. I look forward to it. Hopefully things work out and Slipknot keeps going strong. They are my 2nd favorite band next to Linkin Park and I'd be deeply upset if they were to call it quits.

 

Yeah they are my 2'nd favorite band too,and i just hate this time right now,and yeah i agree with you,and cool to see a big slipknot fan like me

 

Wow. That would be nice.

 

I don't think Slipknot has to stick to a particular sound at all. All Hope Is Gone was a HUGE departure from old slipknot and Vol 3 was a pretty big departure as well.

 

Well just because people don't like their new direction doesn't mean they have to stick to that sound. I love the new direction and personally I like it more then the old stuff. They are gaining more fans because now they aren't just an angry,aggressive band that talks about how much life sucks and how they hate people. That was fine too but I think the new stuff is better. IMO
