Corey Taylor CMFT Vinyl

GRAMMY® Award-winning singer / songwriter, actor, and New York Times Best-Selling Author, Corey Taylor will release his widely anticipated debut solo album, CMFT on Roadrunner Records.

The Slipknot and Stone Sour frontman shared the album’s first two singles: “Black Eyes Blue” and “CMFT Must Be Stopped” [feat. Tech N9ne & Kid Bookie] on announce. The songs illuminate the broad spectrum of this fiery and fearless rock ‘n’ roll opus, as Taylor touches on lifelong influences ranging from hard rock to classic rock, punk rock to hip-hop.

On “Black Eyes Blue” Taylor’s vocals soar with nostalgia, while on “CMFT Must Be Stopped” his rhymes recall his work on Slipknot’s debut record and run alongside bulletproof bars from multi-platinum artist Tech N9ne and UK MC Kid Bookie. CMFT has been a long time coming for Taylor, with newly written tracks alongside some dating back to his teens.  

Recorded at Hideout Studio in Las Vegas, with producer Jay Ruston and his band—Christian Martucci [guitar], Zach Throne [guitar], Jason Christopher [bass], and Dustin Robert [drums]— the album traces a wild and exhilarating roadmap through Taylor’s musical psyche.
