Corey Taylor has already received a fairly busy 2021 deliberate – having recently told Kerrang! about his hopes to tour, do a film and write his fifth e-book – however the Slipknot frontman has revealed he may properly add one other factor to his stacked plate: a musical.
It’s properly documented that Corey is a large fan of the theatre (he even has a 24601 tattoo on his again, the jail code of Les Misérables’ lead character Jean Valjean), and now he may deliver his personal concept to life, revealing on the Talkulture Twitch channel that he’s been “toying with the concept” of writing a musical.
“I’ve sort of gotten within the behavior of doing idea albums, clearly, so I know tie a story collectively,” he explains (through Blabbermouth). “And I’ve been toying with the concept of writing a musical based mostly across the individuals who I spent a great amount of my 20s with in Des Moines [Iowa] – like my crew, and the way all of us discovered one another, how the misfits got here collectively and located one another, and we sort of saved every different.

“All of us got here from these loopy balls of emotional abuse and neglect and coping with issues, however we didn’t know what the names of the issues had been,” Corey continues. “The one factor that saved us was the truth that getting collectively made us really feel like we weren’t alone. And it made us really feel that if we had one another as help and as buddies and as someone to speak to, perhaps we may work our method via it. And in that point, I was uncovered to the whole lot – a lot new music, a lot completely different music, a lot new literature, motion pictures. It was the catalyst for the whole lot that I am now.”
The musician jokes that he’s a “scatterbrain” and due to this fact doesn’t know “if I’ll ever get it performed”. “However it’s positively one thing that I really feel extra captivated with now than I did about 10 years in the past after I considered it,” he concludes. “And I’m truly getting extra assured now in my piano taking part in, which is what I would write it on. It could simply be one thing like one other ardour challenge, simply to see what would occur.”
