COREY TAYLOR Tops BILLBOARD’s ‘Hard Rock Songwriters’ Chart

COREY TAYLOR Tops BILLBOARD’s ‘Hard Rock Songwriters’ Chart

Corey Taylor has topped Billboard‘s Hard Rock Songwriters chart. One of the two new solo singles from the SLIPKNOT and STONE SOUR frontman, “CMFT Must Be Stopped” debuted at No. 11 on Hot Hard Rock Songs with 645,000 U.S. streams and 1,000 downloads sold in the tracking week, according to Nielsen Music/MRC Data. The other single, “Black Eyes Blue”, landed at No. 13 on the same chart in its second week. Bubbling to the top of the pop culture conversation, Rolling Stone wrote, “The genre-spanning ‘CMFT’ — short for ‘Corey Mother Fucking Taylor’ — sees the singer tackling multiple styles of music, from hard rock and classic rock to punk and hip-hop.” Forbes observed, “Taylor‘s solo career will blur the lines between a number of rock sub-genres. And honestly, this approach seems like the best direction for his solo debut.” Taylor‘s debut solo album, “CMFT”, is set for release on October 2 via Roadrunner Records. The songs illuminate the broad spectrum of this fiery and fearless rock ‘n’ roll opus, as Taylor touches on lifelong influences ranging from hard rock to classic rock, punk rock to hip-hop. On “Black Eyes Blue”, Taylor‘s vocals soar with nostalgia, while on “CMFT Must Be Stopped”, his rhymes recall his work on SLIPKNOT‘s debut record and run alongside bulletproof bars from multi-platinum artist Tech N9ne and U.K. MC Kid Bookie. The track is joined by a Djay Brawner-directed music video, which sees Taylor taking the CMFT championship belt as friends such as Marilyn Manson, Lars Ulrich, Rob Halford, Chris Jericho, ZillaKami and more making cameos.
“CMFT” has been a long time coming for Taylor, with newly written tracks alongside some dating back to his teens. Recorded at Kevin Churko‘s The Hideout Recording Studio in Las Vegas with producer Jay Ruston and his band — Jason Christopher on bass, Dustin Schoenhofer on drums and Zach Throne and Christian Martucci (STONE SOUR) on guitar — the album traces a wild and exhilarating roadmap through Taylor‘s musical psyche. “HWY 666” kicks off the album barreling ahead with a devilish twang, while “Silverfish” peels back the layers of Taylor‘s songwriting as acoustic guitars build to a highwire balance of hooks and heft. An ominous bass line gives way to pummeling wah-ed out guitars on “Culture Head” and the moving piano-driven “Home” offers a raw glimpse at Taylor‘s immense vocal range. SLIPKNOT recently canceled all of its previously announced summer 2020 tour dates, including the “Knotfest Roadshow”, Knotfest UK and Knotfest At Sea, due to the coronavirus pandemic which is sweeping the globe.
