Corey Taylor of Stone Sour and Slipknot wants to clarify some news stories that were floating around last week.
Following an interview in which Taylor simply stated that he has yet to hear new Slipknot music, a bunch of outlets posted stories implying there was drama in the Slipknot camp.
Not so, says Taylor.
“Everybody do me a favor and take these ‘Slipknot’ clickbait ‘news stories’ with a grain of salt. I JUST spoke to the SK guys and I’ll be hearing new music soon,” Taylor stated on Twitter.
It’s worth noting that Taylor’s vibe towards Slipknot in the aforementioned interview was nothing but positive.
When talking about how the new music might sound, he said, “I can guarantee you that it’s very creative, I can guarantee you that it’s dark. “I can guarantee you that it’s going to be unlike anything I’ve ever heard before.”
In other news, Stone Sour and Halestorm just announced a co-headlining North American tour for next year. The joint tour will kick off in Canada on Jan. 27 in Abbotsford, British Columbia, and run through a Feb. 11 date in Rochester, New York.
