Corey Taylor may be the vocalist in a band bigger than Stone Sour, but it is becoming too active to be labeled a “side project.” Taylor’s 2007 calendar includes no commitments to SLIPKNOT, the nine-member, Iowa-based metal act that’s issued three platinum-selling albums since 1999.

Stone Sour — which features another “Knot” band mate, guitarist James Root — will perform Wednesday at the Murat Egyptian Room as part of the Jagermeister Music Tour. The band, touring to promote its “Come What(ever) May” album, played a string of dates in Canada earlier this year and Stone Sour’s summer will include a headlining trek in Europe.

Corey Taylor is on the cover of the May 2007 issue of Revolver. The cover kicks ass, hands down.
What’s even better is the feature Revolver wrote on Corey, Slipknot, Stone Sour, and his musical partners in crime. There’s a lot of new information in there, even to band fans. The issue hits shelves today, so make sure to get a copy.
