"It's something that I'd like to do purely for myself. It's something that I need to release before I can think about moving on to anything else... In both SLIPKNOT and STONE SOUR I'm slightly limited to how I can write and indeed what I can write about. The beauty of doing a solo album is that I can write whatever type of song I want."

Slipknot/Stone Sour frontman Corey Taylor has revealed plans to release a solo LP. Apparently he has over written over 40 songs. 


Taylor said, "It's something that I'd like to do purely for myself. It's something that I need to release before I can think about moving on to anything else...
