Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor recently dropped a new single, "Talk Sick," the third song off his soon-to-be-released sophomore solo studio album, CMF2.
"That sick guitar at the beginning, I played that through a speaker about the size of a coffee cup. It made it sound violent; you feel like you're being stung by bees who are playing along to the Sex Pistols," Taylor said about the track.
He continued, "There's an element of spiritual regurgitation, trying to purge yourself of demons that have been clinging to you because of prior relationships, romantic or otherwise. You realize those people bring a certain asshole side out of you that you don't necessarily want in your life. It's about trying to lance that boil and get that sickness out of you."
Taylor released "Post Traumatic Blues" last month and "Beyond," the first single from CMF2, in May. The album is scheduled to drop on September 15, 2023.
In support of CMF2, Taylor will be hitting the road for a U.S. tour with his solo band. The trek kicks off this Friday, August 25th, in Denver.
