Stone Sour went on indefinite hiatus in 2020, with vocalist Corey Taylor later clarifying that “there’s nonetheless a lot drama and points [between the members]. To me, it is simply not one thing I need to do.” Now three years later, it nonetheless does not look like there’s any likelihood Stone Sour is coming again any time quickly.
In an interview with Rock Antenne, Taylor heaped praised onto his solo band whereas mentioning that there are nonetheless points throughout the Stone Sour camp. Taylor does not go into particular particulars in regards to the band, however particularly notes that it is “not that I do not miss among the guys in Stone Sour.” So y’know, not all of ’em.
“In sure methods. I imply, it actually is with [my solo] band. My solo band is made up of simply such clutch dudes. Clearly, I’ve bought [guitarist Christian Martucci]. Zach Throne is unimaginable. Dustin, our drummer, is superb. And now having Eliot, the brand new bass participant, who can play something you throw at him, man — I imply, it is ridiculous… it is felony how good he’s. When you may have an amazing drawback like that… That makes the recording stuff simple, as a result of then, if you hit them with the demos, which largely are simply me taking part in the music and going, ‘Okay, I am listening to stuff right here.’
“I give them carte blanche to type of do what they need, however on the identical time I’ve a transparent imaginative and prescient. And that is the place the onerous work is available in. All of the sudden you do not have a band which you can simply type of mix in with or delegate or dictate to. It is all you — it is all on you. The paintings’s on you. The manufacturing’s on you. The songwriting’s on you. The work’s on you. The press is on you. Every thing is on you. And I used to be type of like that to start with. So I used to be, like, ‘Effectively, why do not I do that and be actually proud of every thing?'”
“It isn’t that I do not miss among the guys in Stone Sour; I nonetheless discuss to them. However at this stage, I refuse to compromise my imaginative and prescient and my artwork due to sure folks’s hindrances. And that is all I am going to say.”
As of proper now, Hydrograd from 2017 is Stone Sour‘s closing album. Contemplating Taylor nonetheless has Slipknot and is gearing as much as launch CMF2, I am unable to think about a Stone Sour reunion is within the playing cards.
