Corey Taylor is a man that never sleeps. In addition to being the front man for the metal juggernaut, Slipknot, Taylor also is the singer for hard rock outfit Stone Sour. He tours relentlessly throughout the year and when he is not on the road he is in the studio working on new music. His creative muse never rests and he has created some of the most memorable hard rock and heavy metal records of the past few decades.
When it came time to put together a new Stone Sour record, Taylor was inspired to write a short story that was eventually used as the basis for the group’s new 2-album concept record, House Of Gold & Bones Part 1 & 2. The story lent itself to be turned into some blistering hard rock.
Taylor is a lifelong comic book fan and has professed his love for the medium in countless interviews. With the prose narrative for “House Of Gold & Bones” already written, Taylor decided that the story leant itself to be adapted into comic book form. After pitching the book to a couple publishers Dark Horse Comics stepped in and helped Taylor bring the idea to fruition. READ MORE

Hard rock/metal band Stone Sour has released an amazing video for “Do Me A Favor”, which comes from their upcoming album House Of Gold And Bones: Part 2 (out April 9th via Roadrunner Records). Directed by the always impressive Phil Mucci, the video is a visual masterpiece and never offers a dull moment, featuring brutal fistfights, zombies, and much, much more. I can’t recommend checking this video out enough. Head on below to see it!
Singer Corey Taylor explains, “The ‘Do Me A Favor’ video is actually based loosely on a part of the short story that happens towards the end. It’s a lot of action and fire. All the main characters are there: The Human, Allen, Peck, Black John and the Numbers… It’s a great ride.”
Hard rockers Stone Sour have unleashed a 30-second teaser of a new song from House Of Gold And Bones: Part 2 entitled “Black John”. The song has an almost “dancey” vibe with a thick distorted bass and an upbeat drum beat. If this is their next single, I’ll fully admit that I’m liking it more than their current one, “Do Me A Favor”. You can hear the sample below.

If we can do that, we feel other people will be happy with the result as well.”

According to their November Newsletter, Tool members Adam Jones, Justin Chancellor, and Danny Carey will be continuing the writing process for their fifth full-length studio album, which is as-of-yet-untitled and also has no concrete release date. This album will be the follow-up to 2006′s 10,000 Days.
There is also a rumor going around the web that Tool will be playing Day 2 of Ozzfest Japan in May, 2013. Confirmed to be on the package is Slash, Deftones, and Slipknot (who will be headlining Day 1), and Stone Sour, and Black Sabbath (who are headlining Day 2). This rumor comes from a website entitled Ozzfest Japan but the Tool newsletter seems rather dubious, stating that they, “…have NOT been told that this is confirmed,” and that they, “…have NOT received anything that could be considered official about any shows.”
While it’s exciting to think that Tool will be releasing a new album and hitting the road, I find it best to not hold my breath and just be patient. It’s almost always worth it.
