Even though Stone Sour was a band a decade older and wiser than “the knot,” Corey Taylor (who fronts for both outfits) said he knew Slipknot would be a bigger animal right out of the gate.
“I knew we would never have the same impact,” Taylor explains. “You have one chance at grabbing lightning, and Slipknot was that chance.”He continues, “When I was young, maybe I wanted to have more credit [for Slipknot] from an ego standpoint. It’s only in retrospect that you can look at it and go, ‘I was actually a very big part of it.'”
