February 12, 2020, 4 years ago
In an interview with Kerrang! Radio, Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor discussed the band's 25-year legacy and what drives them to continue after all this time. He also spoke about how the band almost "pulled a Sex Pistols" and talked about splitting up after just one album.
“Those were real conversations! I feel like we’ve failed everyone by making Iowa,” says Corey. It was such a great thing to think about. None of this [massive success] was expected, man. Just on paper we shouldn’t have made it and yet here we are! It’s a weird feeling still.”
