Stone Sour recently released a video montage of their time in Nashville, Tennessee's Blackbird Studios recording new album Audio Secrecy with producer Nick Raskulinecz. Watch the video below.

Stone Sour have announced a September 7th release date for their new album, Audio Secrecy.

“It's probably the best thing I've done in a long time," lead singer Corey Taylor recently told MTV News. "We recorded 18 songs — and knowing that every tune not only has its own identity but is damn good, I'm very, very proud of that."

The album’s first commercial single will be 'Say You’ll Haunt Me', which ships to modern rock and rock radio on Tuesday, July 6th.

Stone Sour (Taylor, guitarists James Root and Josh Rand, bassist Shawn Economaki and drummer Roy Mayorga) and producer Nick Raskulinecz recorded Audio Secrecy at Blackbird Studios in Nashville during the destructive storms and devastating floods that hit the historic heart of Music City.

“Recording during the flood was crazy,” says Taylor. “Luckily the studio and the band weren't affected too greatly. The studio was untouched and the neighborhood we were living in just missed being flooded. But a lot of the areas around us were decimated. Whole houses were submerged and for a week, the roads in and out of Old Hickory were completely covered with water. I've been getting the word out to people to contact Nashville Flood Relief if they would like to donate money to help the people of Nashville. Also, they can contact the Gibson Foundation to do the same. We were lucky, but so many people were not. I hope can pull together and do what we can for Nashville.”

While making the album, Stone Sour has been taping webisodes covering the recording process and answering fan questions. They can be viewed at StoneSour.com.

The quintet will be previewing select songs from the album during this summer’s Rockstar Energy Drink Uproar Festival. The 36-date tour launches August 17th in Minneapolis, MN and will visit arenas and amphitheatres across North America before wrapping October 4th in Madison, WI.
