Man, that 'WOOOOO' is our new favorite thing.
This has been a big year for Corey going back to his roots; earlier this month, a long-lost nu-metal track by the Iowa band Smakdab was revealed, which features back-up vocals by Corey throughout.
On top of that, Corey has also got the new Slipknot album on the way, which he describes as "evil" and "ridiculous".
“All I was doing was giving and I found myself absolutely, completely tapped,” Corey says of what he’s been through these past few years. “You could see it in my skin. You could see it in my eyes. That’s basically the journey I’m going to take people on this album… show them what happens to depression when you have no chemicals to fall back on. It’s a pretty dark ride.”
