Slipknot's Corey Taylor has revealed that his upcoming second album is nearly done; all he has to do is record it next year.
Taylor has also hinted at the possibility of doing a tour on his own, after his current commitments with Slipknot, possibly playing the songs for his new album and "CMFT."
Meanwhile, the masked frontman finally responds to fan requests for a Stone Sour reunion, offering a more definite answer.
Slipknot Corey Taylor New Album Details
According to Blabbermouth, Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor has sat down with SiriusXM and shared some exciting developments on his upcoming new album.
A Corey Taylor new album is currently in the works, after all.
The 48-year-old rockstar revealed that he has already finished writing all the songs for his new album, as he will be heading to the music studio early next year from January to February to record it.
In the interview, he confirmed that the album would be composed of 15 songs, a mixture of old music he had written over the years and some that fans have already known.
He pointed out that some songs were already performed when he was playing along at the JBKB or the "Corey Taylor & The Junk Beer Kidnap Band."
But aside from old songs, Taylor also promised that there are new ones, including songs with a "darker edge" but still remain that melodic tune fans have loved about his music.

Aside from the new music, he also opened up his interest in staging a tour once his album was out.
"And then once I'm done touring with Slipknot, I'm gonna throw together a really rad, 'rock is back' kind of tour for the solo stuff and start bringing out some of the younger - maybe not even some of the younger rock bands, but just some of the bands that don't get the chance or just don't get the looks that are afforded to either pop bands and hip-hop bands or people like me who are kind of grandfathered in," Taylor said.
Nothing has been laid out yet. However, what seemed to be set in stone already is his eagerness to reunite with former bandmates from Stone Sour.
Per Taylor, a reunion with his former band is not something he desires to do at the moment as there are still issues and dramas between the members.
Last August 2022, Stone Sour went on an indefinite hiatus as everyone decided to deal with their respective "things" at the time.
