I met Corey in April, 2000 right before they exploded into the mainstream, waited like 3 hours in the cold after a Slipknot show. He and I bonded over Spider-Man comics (Corey was wearing a Spider-Man ring) and he told me that if a new Spider-Man movie was every made that he definitely wanted to be on the soundtrack as a solo artist - 2 years later his dream came true but it was with Stone Sour on the 2002 Spider-Man soundtrack.
Slipknot got me through some of my angstiest teenage years back in the early 2000's.. Corey Taylors voice is absolutely brutal in depth and range. Such a talented vocalist.
I love him for that. Going from something like Duality to Samantha's gone is so bizarre. Whenever I used to listen to Slipknot before ever having seen Corey (without the mask), I just assumed he was a crazed furious lunatic too angry to function in regular society. Yet he's an absolute sweetheart and so down to earth
Corey is the ONLY singer who got sober who still writes great music, besides Jacoby from P Roach, Hetfield, Eminem. But very few can top or equal their pre sober music. Theres just sober about that release that alcohol allow. Heroin will steal your soul, I know from 1st hand experience. Not a ride I'd advise anyone buying a ticket for. Theres nothing harder for addicts than being sober. I would rather have these guys here than in a grave. RIP LAYNE, WEILAND, THE REV., MIKE STARR, CHESTER, PAUL GREY, JOEY JORDISON AND SOOOOO, SOOOOOOOO MANY MORE!!!!!! You will always be missed!!!
Seriously Man U can tell he’s lying by how he shys away when talking about it and when stevo brought up how few people can do it let alone without support BS lol
I tried to type the same thing on the comments section on the episode of Hot Wings with Jack Black from Tenacious D but for some reason, that comment didn't stay on. I also thought of a few famous metal/rock musicians on an episode of Hot Ones as well
The other artists I included that should be on Hot Ones was Trent Reznor from Nine Inch Nails, Lzzy Hale from Halestorm, Amy Lee from Evanescence, Steven Tyler from Aerosmith, Rob Zombie. If Rob Zombie was on an episode of Hot Ones, I also would have asked him about his horror movies he produces if I were the main guest on hot ones.
That’s why I love interview from people like him, Joe Rogan and Sean Evans are all brilliant. They know everything they need to and have the charisma to make it all one big wild ride.
True story. Sids first mask for the first couple shows was my Marine Corps gas mask that I gave him to use. THen he moved on to some other masks. I also went to school with Corey at Des Moines Lincoln. Good times.
Did you have a class with a substitute teacher at Lincoln named Lisa ? forgot her maiden name she is an old friend of mine,...she had CMFT in her class,....there is a video from a signing in Denver she is in with him....
My mom was a middle school principal at the school Corey's kid went to. Said she met him multiple times before even knowing who he was (someone had to tell her, because he seemed so normal). Just a real dude with incredible talent.
•••• •- - ••-- •- •-• Well, look at what he said. He has a 29 year old daughter, an 18 year old son and a 6 year old daughter. And he said that had to tell her who “he” was. So yes, it’s Griffin
Steve-O is like a fine wine, he just keeps getting better and better with age. I'm so proud of the guy for getting clean and turning his life around. One of my favorites to watch.
I drive by the cemetery Joey is buried in every day on my way to work. I’m always too scared to pull in and tell him how much his music has meant to me and helped me through the hardest times of my life because I think it’d be weird if I cried for someone I’ve never met.
@Motorheadmike I’m from the Midwest; and it sucks. I live in Alaska now. The north is the best. Hardworkers (mostly blue collar), best freedom laws, and all the hardcore Americans.
You have pride in him because he was born in Des Moines? Just because you were born in the same state? The guy has lived the bulk of his life outside of the state. Even talks like an LA valley girl. That tribalism mindset is so weird. Like him being from the same sectioned chunk of land actually means anything to you. Tribalism is so fractal and ignorant. People will live in the same city and be tribal about parts of the city. East side is better than the West side. One high school is a rival of the other. You route against other teams from the same state because they aren't "yours". That mindset carries through states, and then countries. Where's that "pride" for your statesman when you're in traffic and a guy cuts you off and you get pissed? You can't claim Corey, a guy who you don't even know as some type of prideful figure just because he was born on a chunk of land he didn't even choose to be born on. And then intentionally chose to leave. If you're so tribal, you should consider him a traitor. Corey himself has trashed the exact mindset you're talking about.
@@closinginonclosure. He was born and raised in Iowa. Unless you were born in Iowa, you wouldn't know the significance huh? We look out for OUR own. Nothing tribal about being proud of home-grown neighbors. Push your perception and ignorance somewhere else.
@@Bolverine "We look out for OUR own". Haha. You say that like it's out of the ordinary. Do you honestly think Iowa is unique in that regard? Do you honestly think there's some bond because people are born on a several hundred square mile section of bordered land with a name attached to it? Corey left that state a LONG time ago. Also, do you also feel the same about the murderers and horrible people that came from the state? Or do you just pick and choose who you want to attach yourself to, based on how prideful it makes you feel? It's a tribal mindset whether you want to admit it or not. People don't choose where there born. Someone could move from Europe today and birth their child in an Iowa hospital tomorrow. It means absolutely nothing. We're all just human. Some good, some bad. Some talented on areas others aren't. But to act like being born in the same area has any representation of the other people in state means nothing. If your neighbor murders a guy, it's no reflection on you. If your other neighbor becomes POTUS, it's no representation on you. Accept that.
As a kid in the 90’s I didn’t grow up with a male figure in my life. I lived with my mother and grandmother my entire childhood and into my 20’s. Because of that I only really listened to what they did because that’s what I was exposed to. So it was slot of pop, disco and oldies. Which was weird because my mom grew up listening to guns and roses, Def Leppard, Ozzy etc but unfortunately she never exposed me to that. So when I was a kid I listened to what ever was on the radio. Which happened to be stuff like Brittany Spears, Backstreet Boys etc. then one day in 1999 I heard Slipknot’s Wait and Bleed. Up until the point in my life I’ve never heard anything like that or anything metal in general. Changed my life forever. 11 Slipknot live shows later and a Slipknot tattoo later I’m as big of a fan as I ever was. Met Corey multiple times and every time he was great.
Corey is the first person that ever inspired me when I was a kid. I remember listening to slipknot when I was 10 and it was the craziest shit I had ever heard and immediately fell in love with the band. I originally was going to do a speech about slipknot in grade 6, but after a day the teacher called my parents about it and they freaked out because the teacher blew it way out of proportion and I had to change the subject. :( My parents never took away my slipknot albums though, they just accepted it since I was so passionate about them. Fucking Slipknot and Lamb of God till I die.
I appreciate Corey’s candidness in talking about sobriety, being transparent/vulnerable can be embarrassing but it helps people who haven’t made it to the other side yet know sobriety is possible
Went to mayhem fest one year and stone sour couldn't play due to some band member had a injury so Corey Taylor came out by himself and played some songs it was a cool unique experience and shows that he really loves his fans.
You got me by 3 live shows.. seen em 5x, last was just Sept 10 2021 in Ohio. Batshit crazy good times. The drum kits need to spin again though, last 2 shows I seen them, both werent moving up/down or spinning. Either way, it rocked \m/
@@fbomb2077 I'm tempted to go down to AZ to see them b/c they aren't hitting Cali during this tour 😭 glad you got to see them although their gear wasn't working 100%.
@@exorpiona I think the drum kits do not lift and spin anymore, as last 2 shows they didnt have em going off. They do have wrap around video screens on the drums now though. Still, its fn Slipknot! 'Nuff said!
This is a really fucking enjoyable podcast i gotta say, such big umprovements and really cool questions were asked and answered beautifully here i'm into this
When he talks bout loving all kinds of dif music & genres, I'm the same way. He says, "I just like what I like." Its about just enjoying what's good. Good music doesn't need to be a certain genre or certain rules. What's good is good
I LOVE Slipknot! I never knew much behind the music scoop so this was an awesome interview. Corey seems so chill and down to earth and I’m happy to hear he’s overcome his hardships and is living life to the fullest. Would love to meet him sometime. Another kickass interview Steve-O!!
Can we get the white and black neck guys in a video w Corey and the singer from Cannibal Corpse? Just have em all giraffing it up. I'm talking about the nerdy white and black guy daddy long neck and wide neck
All I can say is that Slipknot goes balls to the wall on their music video shoots. I (and my family) was in their video for “All Out Life,” off the last album. It was insane. We shot in Oct 2018, but the album didn’t come out until almost a year later. I’ve been in and seen a bunch of shoots, but this was like a full-blown action movie. Huge crew and movie cameras, creepy ass warehouse, full suits/masks for us, blood spraying, insane pyrotechnics (that we were standing over lol) in a school bus that we moshed around in, and then they blew it up at the end. We all went to bed as soon as we got home that day. We were spent, but it was such a cool experience.
@@daloco6664 it was an honor for sure. They posted us on their IG too. My son was the only kid, and everyone loved him and helped keep an eye on him in the more rough parts. He was 10, lol.
By far my favorite podcast Steve, Corey is really good at talking and engaging in a story in a conversation sense and not just answering a question with a straight answer, he’s giving detail side stories a couple little jokes, he should have his own Podcast for sure , the Knotcast
Wow! I saw Slipknott in Portland, Oregon in 2001 when it was still the Rose Garden. MudVayne and System of a Down played. It was a bummer just because I hurt my leg really bad like the night before and could barely walk. Honestly I never listened to any of them before that night and have been a fan ever since. Take care dudes!
Ever since high school up to this day Slipknot and Corey's music saved my life, shaped me into who I was and made me not give a fuck about what people say. Truly the greatest band on the planet. Thanks for this Steve o !!
I’m impressed by how smart Steve is... pretty crazy how the goldfish guy is talking about music contacts and interviewing mark cuban... loving the podcasts Steve.
Bro I was JUST reminiscing on all the early days of slipknot, the interviews, the good and bad, the shows. The universe is crazy, I’m so excited to listen to this!
I'm now 31 and a maggot for life. Saw them back in the day at rock on the range and it was a awesome experience. Love me some Steve-0 to also been making me laugh since I was a teen and still. Mad respect for you both!!
@@VaclavSverkos lol looks can be deceiving. Back in the high school days I was always the rocker girl wearing the slipknot band shirts. LOL My dad raised me on rock and metal. I do however listen to different genres im very versatile style with my music. Also im now a mom and my oldest whose 9 laughs seeing my old concert pics lol 😆 😂 I miss the young free days ❤
It's a true honour to be reminded by corey every download festival that the UK and iowa was the ones who believed in slipknot. The home of slipknot being download is absolutely amazing.
I went to Des Moines in august of ‘19, for their first time ever playing the Iowa state fair. No joke met people from all over the world. An amazing experience. Once in a lifetime.
Saw Slipknot the first time in May 1999, in Charlotte at Ozzfest. Went and got 2 Slipknot tattoos the day after....before the album even came out. I was picked on for it, and people said "That band sucks" "They'll never last"....20+ years later and Slipknot is still the biggest band in the world.
I saw slipknot in a standing room only show with coal chamber, machine head and crazy town. Sold out the electric factory in philly. Right after the self titled album came out. Shit was crazy af. Recovering alcoholic that can really relate to both of these guys. Really needed this as motivation right now
I was a huge fan at 14-15 and had their first album as soon as it came out, and had posters all over the place of mick, jim and joey doin their thang, i still to this day have those magazines in mint shape, and that was 21-22 years ago, time flies. This was a great one steve-o.
I’m a somewhat new slipknot fan, I’ll be 21 this year and my brother is 34. He’s seen slipknot many times and always had his stereo blaring, even to go to sleep. I never understood the music when I was younger, I’d make fun of my brother because it was just screaming to me. Seeing the posters all over his room always peaked my interest tho, I’d stare at them in awe and the pictures of models he had taped to his wall😂Back in December I really dove deep into slipknot, like really deep. It was like bumping into an old friend I hadn’t heard from in years. I never tuned into any of their music before, but I recognized almost all of the sounds and lyrics because it was played throughout my childhood. Now I have vivid memories, memories I had totally forgot about, of my brother n I wrestling, playing video games, arguing, just hanging out with slipknot playing in the background. My brain forgot about them because they weren’t that important I guess, SlipKnot brought them back, even though they’re pretty simple memories of just being brothers, they mean the world to me and now I’ll never forget because of the music. Thank you, Sid, Joey, Paul, Chris, Jim, Craig, Shawn, Mick, Corey
Corey has been appearing in a bunch of stuff I'm subscribed to right now. He and James Rolfe (Angry Video Game Nerd) reviewed Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas a dew days ago!
Steve o is so broad across culture over the past couple decades everyone know him and he can pretty much talk to anyone. Love this one with Corey. Keep up the great work boys!
Met Corey years ago when Stone Sour first kicked off a tour. Super Rad dude and made sure fans met the other band members and not just him. Grounded!!!
When Corey said he drank 2 beers and felt like he drank 3 whiskies the next day, that is exactly what happens to me when I drink and that's why I quit. That's your body's way of telling you to stop.
mee too. well, i’ve never been a big drinker-i can’t physically do it. i drink 2 mikes hard lemonades and either i am ready to go to sleep or i throw up. granted-i’m 5’3 and 90 lbs. however i know there are small girls who can drink. doesn’t matter tho-people getting drunk is not my scene. i do wonder if i’ll ever be able to have a few glasses of wine like an adult or what. guess not.
@@hughmungus431 dude the last time I had a beer(just one beer) just to enjoy a nice beverage during a meal, I immediately regretted it because it made me feel like shit for the rest of the day. Just ONE BEER did that. I felt extremely fatigued and tired like I just drank poison(which is essentially what beer is)
@@lillinsey100 I can never just enjoy 1 or 2 beers. If I'm going to drink, I have to go all out or it's just going to make me wanna take a nap. But when I do go all out, sure it's fun in the moment. But the next day I have a brutal headache that basically feels like I have a brain tumor, and I have to smoke weed just to help my stomach feel better. Not worth it. So glad I quit. At a certain age you just have to give up that party life, or you'll end up bloated with a bunch of serious health problems.
This was great! Thank you so much for making these videos and sharing them with us ( _for free_ )! At the end of the video, the person who wrote that comment must be very young. To say _"Dude, you're old, it's time to stop"_ is like saying _"You've lived enough. Now, sit down in front of TV and wait until you die"_ ...
My Best best friend's daughter is so in love w/this band since i can't ever remember how far back. But if she likes it, us elders like it. or true to understand it... thank u, = )
This felt weirdly intrusive but in a good way, it’s like steveo knew how to ask some of these questions. Being that he also was in the same boat as Corey in terms of addiction I feel that they clicked better in that conversation. Also feels as if Corey is more open about it now as oppose to back them
Steve-O's incite that the repetition of any music genre will inevitably create an appreciation for it, is exactly what I try to tell people all the time. IDK why so many take so much offense by this, but you would be surprised.
"Who is Paul Grey?".........It is so crazy the different wave lengths people are on. I understand everybody is into different shit, it's just Slipknot and of course Paul were such a huge part of my life and I was and still am a HUGE fan. R.I.P Paul. Good shit having Corey on Steve O 🤘❤🙏.
i appreciate him asking. i wasnt aware of who he was. dont listen to slipknot but i like tuning into steve o every now and then so it filled me in. he could have phrased it different something like " for those who don't know, who is..." something like that.
@@Alternate_Ending I agree. One can't know everything! If you're not a super huge Fan who knows every bandmembers birthday and their whole Band history but only like their music, you probably will not know everyones Name. Or, as you said, you just enjoy a Podcast and maybe don't know the guest at all (or only key data like 'oh, that's the guy from ..'), it makes things easier to understand.
Same here. Back in 2001 at 6th grade my music class teacher let the students play some cd's at the end of the class just to show everybody in class our different music tastes and guess what me and my friend brought to class...
Saw Slipknot at the Rainbow Ballroom in Fresno, CA in 2000, still recovering.
I saw them on the little stage at the gorge in George Washington Ozzfest '99! Pivotal moment!
Best comment ever 😂
Awesome! I’m from Fresno so this being the very first comment on this video is so tight! 🤘🏽

I got into Slipknot when I was 12 and I'm 27 now 🤘🏼 Seen them live 8 times. They have the best performances EVER! ❤
Likewise! Amazing band
With I'd be stoked seeing them just once.. take me with you next time, please! 😭
You got me by 3 live shows.. seen em 5x, last was just Sept 10 2021 in Ohio. Batshit crazy good times. The drum kits need to spin again though, last 2 shows I seen them, both werent moving up/down or spinning. Either way, it rocked \m/
@@fbomb2077 I'm tempted to go down to AZ to see them b/c they aren't hitting Cali during this tour 😭 glad you got to see them although their gear wasn't working 100%.
@@exorpiona I think the drum kits do not lift and spin anymore, as last 2 shows they didnt have em going off. They do have wrap around video screens on the drums now though. Still, its fn Slipknot! 'Nuff said!
two of the most genuine dudes together. Steve-O and Corey.
I usually wait later on in the day to watch anything on TH-cam. I saw Corey Taylor instantly got on.
I like what Scott said about the personality/persona thing.
This is a really fucking enjoyable podcast i gotta say, such big umprovements and really cool questions were asked and answered beautifully here i'm into this
When he talks bout loving all kinds of dif music & genres, I'm the same way. He says, "I just like what I like." Its about just enjoying what's good. Good music doesn't need to be a certain genre or certain rules. What's good is good
Wow I never thought I’d see this. Big fan of slipknot.
I LOVE Slipknot! I never knew much behind the music scoop so this was an awesome interview. Corey seems so chill and down to earth and I’m happy to hear he’s overcome his hardships and is living life to the fullest. Would love to meet him sometime. Another kickass interview Steve-O!!
Holy Jesus the Neck himself. 🔥
“The neck himself”. Should be coined to George Fisher
That's not Corpsegrinder though?
As the other two guys said, Corpsegrinder is the only person worthy of the title "the Neck"
Can we get the white and black neck guys in a video w Corey and the singer from Cannibal Corpse? Just have em all giraffing it up. I'm talking about the nerdy white and black guy daddy long neck and wide neck
@@derpherpula592 wrong band and I'm talking about someone else. I edited the comment. Thank you
Caught Slipknot almost 3 years ago. Amazing live band. So much energy. Cory is a great front man for them and Stone Sour.
Corey’s cool cuz if you only knew his stage persona and music you’d think he’s some scary, demented lunatic, but he’s actually a super sweetheart
saw slipknot live in 2019 and corey gave a motivational speech at the end, are you stuck in 1999 or somthin?
Nothing scary about him, possy
All I can say is that Slipknot goes balls to the wall on their music video shoots. I (and my family) was in their video for “All Out Life,” off the last album. It was insane. We shot in Oct 2018, but the album didn’t come out until almost a year later. I’ve been in and seen a bunch of shoots, but this was like a full-blown action movie. Huge crew and movie cameras, creepy ass warehouse, full suits/masks for us, blood spraying, insane pyrotechnics (that we were standing over lol) in a school bus that we moshed around in, and then they blew it up at the end. We all went to bed as soon as we got home that day. We were spent, but it was such a cool experience.
Dude that's fucking awesome
@@daloco6664 it was an honor for sure. They posted us on their IG too. My son was the only kid, and everyone loved him and helped keep an eye on him in the more rough parts. He was 10, lol.
Got my ass kicked at Oz Fest in '99 in a Slipknot mosh pit...loved every second of it!
Mosh pits were the best
@@bigpakuno5034 dude seriously, everyone needs to have that outlet/experience...I miss it
Lost a nose ring and one converse shoe lol !
99.. they didn’t play ozzfest 98
@@shanewhisler4684 you are correct...it was '99!
By far my favorite podcast Steve, Corey is really good at talking and engaging in a story in a conversation sense and not just answering a question with a straight answer, he’s giving detail side stories a couple little jokes, he should have his own Podcast for sure , the Knotcast
My first concert was Slipknot, Meshuggah and a few others. Portland, Maine. Circa 2001
Wow! I saw Slipknott in Portland, Oregon in 2001 when it was still the Rose Garden. MudVayne and System of a Down played. It was a bummer just because I hurt my leg really bad like the night before and could barely walk. Honestly I never listened to any of them before that night and have been a fan ever since. Take care dudes!
Bro these are my two worlds fucking colliding holy shit
Ever since high school up to this day Slipknot and Corey's music saved my life, shaped me into who I was and made me not give a fuck about what people say. Truly the greatest band on the planet.
Thanks for this Steve o !!
I’m impressed by how smart Steve is... pretty crazy how the goldfish guy is talking about music contacts and interviewing mark cuban... loving the podcasts Steve.
One of the most real interviews I have ever watched! Shout out to steve-o for this interview! CMFT can't be stoped! Stay sic!
I can tell from the title this is gonna be a good one
Bro I was JUST reminiscing on all the early days of slipknot, the interviews, the good and bad, the shows. The universe is crazy, I’m so excited to listen to this!
jackass and slipknot, two of my favorite things in the world!!! stoked for this one
I'm now 31 and a maggot for life. Saw them back in the day at rock on the range and it was a awesome experience. Love me some Steve-0 to also been making me laugh since I was a teen and still. Mad respect for you both!!
You look more like the britney Spears kinda fangirl
@@VaclavSverkos lol looks can be deceiving. Back in the high school days I was always the rocker girl wearing the slipknot band shirts. LOL My dad raised me on rock and metal. I do however listen to different genres im very versatile style with my music. Also im now a mom and my oldest whose 9 laughs seeing my old concert pics lol 😆 😂 I miss the young free days ❤
I am a die hard Slipknot fan myself . Female Slipknot Fans are rare in Germany
@@Amanda_The_American_Mom SAME. Everyone thinks I listen to justin bieber or taylor swift. My dad raised me on metal though 😂
@@Amanda_The_American_Mom you go girl 🤘🏻
Steve O is consistently killing it
It's a true honour to be reminded by corey every download festival that the UK and iowa was the ones who believed in slipknot. The home of slipknot being download is absolutely amazing.
I’ve never been a huge Slipknot fan, but Bother by Stone Sour is one of my all time favorite songs, absolutely amazing...
I went to Des Moines in august of ‘19, for their first time ever playing the Iowa state fair. No joke met people from all over the world. An amazing experience. Once in a lifetime.
CMFT is such an amazing person. Just too damn impressed by him
Is his solo album good?
@@jazzwebster9851 I find it cringey as hell, tbh.
Saw Slipknot the first time in May 1999, in Charlotte at Ozzfest. Went and got 2 Slipknot tattoos the day after....before the album even came out. I was picked on for it, and people said "That band sucks" "They'll never last"....20+ years later and Slipknot is still the biggest band in the world.
I saw slipknot in a standing room only show with coal chamber, machine head and crazy town. Sold out the electric factory in philly. Right after the self titled album came out. Shit was crazy af. Recovering alcoholic that can really relate to both of these guys. Really needed this as motivation right now
Met Corey in OKC back in 99. He was a fucking great dude to us. Very friendly and smart. I was impressed
you have to appreciate the doggo napping. melts my heart.
Corey"the neck"Taylor 🤘 everything he touches turns into gold!!! He can scream, he can sing and when he speaks he has such a smooth warm voice 👍👍
I was a huge fan at 14-15 and had their first album as soon as it came out, and had posters all over the place of mick, jim and joey doin their thang, i still to this day have those magazines in mint shape, and that was 21-22 years ago, time flies. This was a great one steve-o.
Steve-O and Corey Taylor are fucking awesome together in this interview
I saw slipknot in Chicago in 2019!! They were awesome!! Can't wait to see them in Indianola in September!!
Hell yes Corey is the man what an episode
I seen slipknot when they headlined the second stage at ozzfest '03 or '04. Never forget that show they blew everyone away fasho!
Ah man, what a treat getting to listen to two of my favourite dudes ever in one podcast
This a major throwback to the early 2000's
I can't believe I get to see Corey Taylor be featured in Cinemassacre and Steve-O's podcast in the span of one week!
Wonder if he's in part 2 of the 80s slasher movies documentary. It's called In Search of Darkness.
Me too!
@@VinylCollektor23 I believe he is, yes.
What were they thinkiiiiing
He was in the Nostalgia Critic's fabled The Wall review but we don't talk about that lol
Met Corey in Glasgow barrowlands February 2003, I was 14 and he had all the time for me and my friend, what a guy man :) still got his autograph lol
Got a black eye at a Slipknot concert. Outrageous pits! 🤘🏻
There’s always a tent for the injured and there’s always blood somewhere 😂👏
Been a fan of him since I was 5!! I’m 23 now such a great dude
I’m a somewhat new slipknot fan, I’ll be 21 this year and my brother is 34. He’s seen slipknot many times and always had his stereo blaring, even to go to sleep. I never understood the music when I was younger, I’d make fun of my brother because it was just screaming to me. Seeing the posters all over his room always peaked my interest tho, I’d stare at them in awe and the pictures of models he had taped to his wall😂Back in December I really dove deep into slipknot, like really deep. It was like bumping into an old friend I hadn’t heard from in years. I never tuned into any of their music before, but I recognized almost all of the sounds and lyrics because it was played throughout my childhood. Now I have vivid memories, memories I had totally forgot about, of my brother n I wrestling, playing video games, arguing, just hanging out with slipknot playing in the background. My brain forgot about them because they weren’t that important I guess, SlipKnot brought them back, even though they’re pretty simple memories of just being brothers, they mean the world to me and now I’ll never forget because of the music. Thank you, Sid, Joey, Paul, Chris, Jim, Craig, Shawn, Mick, Corey
listening to music is like time traveling.
@@VaclavSverkos it really is
I know a lot of people say this, but its the truth that Slipknots music helped save my life
Corey has been appearing in a bunch of stuff I'm subscribed to right now. He and James Rolfe (Angry Video Game Nerd) reviewed Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas a dew days ago!
Haven’t watched that channel in forever.. thanks for the info
Steve o is so broad across culture over the past couple decades everyone know him and he can pretty much talk to anyone. Love this one with Corey. Keep up the great work boys!
Never clicked on a podcast so fast
Same haha
Grow up, that's what tween girls say for David Dobrick videos.
@@robertfrost8264 sorry never heard of that David dude 😂
Met Corey years ago when Stone Sour first kicked off a tour. Super Rad dude and made sure fans met the other band members and not just him. Grounded!!!
When Corey said he drank 2 beers and felt like he drank 3 whiskies the next day, that is exactly what happens to me when I drink and that's why I quit. That's your body's way of telling you to stop.
mee too. well, i’ve never been a big drinker-i can’t physically do it. i drink 2 mikes hard lemonades and either i am ready to go to sleep or i throw up. granted-i’m 5’3 and 90 lbs. however i know there are small girls who can drink. doesn’t matter tho-people getting drunk is not my scene.
i do wonder if i’ll ever be able to have a few glasses of wine like an adult or what. guess not.
@@hughmungus431 dude the last time I had a beer(just one beer) just to enjoy a nice beverage during a meal, I immediately regretted it because it made me feel like shit for the rest of the day. Just ONE BEER did that. I felt extremely fatigued and tired like I just drank poison(which is essentially what beer is)
@@lillinsey100 I can never just enjoy 1 or 2 beers. If I'm going to drink, I have to go all out or it's just going to make me wanna take a nap. But when I do go all out, sure it's fun in the moment. But the next day I have a brutal headache that basically feels like I have a brain tumor, and I have to smoke weed just to help my stomach feel better. Not worth it. So glad I quit. At a certain age you just have to give up that party life, or you'll end up bloated with a bunch of serious health problems.
Really glad you have stepped up your interviewing chops, my guy! I can really see the progression since I’ve been listening for some time now!
This was great! Thank you so much for making these videos and sharing them with us ( _for free_ )!
At the end of the video, the person who wrote that comment must be very young. To say _"Dude, you're old, it's time to stop"_ is like saying _"You've lived enough. Now, sit down in front of TV and wait until you die"_ ...
Love Corey Taylor. Seems so humble
Dude this IS my fucking childhood!! Thank you so much stevO for real
My Best best friend's daughter is so in love w/this band since i can't ever remember how far back. But if she likes it, us elders like it. or true to understand it... thank u, = )
Steve-o, once again, you’re killing it!! 🤘🏼
SLIPKNOT is still very much a big part of my life. Love Corey! ...
Yo Stevo, your podcast is getting better every week. Keep on keeping on
Just met Corey for 2nd time last week and he is still is great mental health and still a nice guy
This felt weirdly intrusive but in a good way, it’s like steveo knew how to ask some of these questions. Being that he also was in the same boat as Corey in terms of addiction I feel that they clicked better in that conversation. Also feels as if Corey is more open about it now as oppose to back them
It is very calming to listen to Corey's stories
And Steve O's comment on music being memory associated is spot on! The tracks of our lives! 🎶💜💯🎶😈
Super intelligent man, musically gifted aswell, this guy and his lyrics got me through my teenage years 😍
Steve-O's incite that the repetition of any music genre will inevitably create an appreciation for it, is exactly what I try to tell people all the time. IDK why so many take so much offense by this, but you would be surprised.
Hello from New Zealand it's great to see Corey on! I've been a knot fan since 99 and I still love it today ROCK ON!
"Who is Paul Grey?".........It is so crazy the different wave lengths people are on. I understand everybody is into different shit, it's just Slipknot and of course Paul were such a huge part of my life and I was and still am a HUGE fan. R.I.P Paul. Good shit having Corey on Steve O 🤘❤🙏.
Gray* (:
yo i was so pissed lol
i appreciate him asking. i wasnt aware of who he was. dont listen to slipknot but i like tuning into steve o every now and then so it filled me in. he could have phrased it different something like " for those who don't know, who is..." something like that.
@@Alternate_Ending
I agree. One can't know everything!
If you're not a super huge Fan who knows every bandmembers birthday and their whole Band history but only like their music, you probably will not know everyones Name.
Or, as you said, you just enjoy a Podcast and maybe don't know the guest at all (or only key data like 'oh, that's the guy from ..'), it makes things easier to understand.
Who knew that Steve-O was a really good interviewer? Nice work man...you're killing it!
Awesome podcast man, hearing you hosted "2 bears" is ABSOLUTELY amazing. Keep it up man 🤘
It's cool to see my favorite singer and stunt guy talking to each other
I’ve listened to slipknot since 5th grade. I’m 31 now.
Same except I'm 15, lol.
Same here.
Back in 2001 at 6th grade my music class teacher let the students play some cd's at the end of the class just to show everybody in class our different music tastes and guess what me and my friend brought to class...
