STONE SOUR's Corey Taylor - "I Can't Sing About Teenage Angst Anymore"
September 9, 2010, 14 years ago
William Goodman of Spin.com recently caught up with Corey Taylor to discuss STONE SOUR's new album, Audio Secrecy. An excerpt of their chat follows:
With its lyrics about heartbreak and other struggles, Audio Secrecy seems deeply personal.
"It's a very honest album for me. For the longest time I felt compelled to talk about how angry I was about certain things. But I can't be that guy. It made sense 10 years ago because it still was very fresh. But now I'm singing about the things that I've gone through in the last five years — the different relationships I've been in, the end of my first marriage, my new marriage. Also, it's not just romantic relationships, but relationships with friends that I've seen change for the worse over the years, and how you try to close that gap but you can't relate to them anymore. These are people that you grew up with, people that you've known half your life, and to see how they're becoming less and less recognizable. It's very much about how long it's taken to wash the dirt off my hands."To read the interview in its entirety, click here.
Audio Secrecy is available right now digitally at LoudTrax.
