An 8 Minute video on the deaths of Dimebag and Paul Gray
Norwegian TV show “Lydverket” (web site) aired a mini-documentary about the deaths of “Dimebag” Darrell Abbott (PANTERA, SLIPKNOT) and Paul Gray (SLIPKNOT). During the eight-minute segment, which can be viewed below (with English subtitles), Vinnie Paul Abbott (PANTERA, HELLYEAH) and Corey Taylor (SLIPKNOT, STONE SOUR) spoke openly about how they dealt with the losses of their bandmembers and friends, and in Vinnie’s case, his brother.
Usually, I really don’t like to just copy-and-paste news from another source, Blabbermouth in this case, but I don’t have a better description for the video myself, so I just did it now.
I’ve read and seen a lot about the death of Dimebag Darrell but I thought the video was pretty powerful and touching so it’s definitely worth a watch. Do so after the jump.
Jingle bells, Slipknot smells…
Corey Taylor of Slipknot, Stone Sour and The Powerpuff Girls is releasing a Christmas song. Really? I guess he wants to be up there with the likes of Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez cause I’m sure they’re also releasing stuff this Christmas.
The song is apparently called “X-M@$” and is gonna be dirty. Although I’m sure he means it’s gonna be ‘c|1r7y,’ cause obviously Corey‘s obviously down with the leet ASCII crowd.
Anyway, apparently it’ll be out December 4th and no other info is available. Nor needed. Nor cared for.

Corey Taylor’s newest costume: Drag
If the picture above isn’t the most metal thing you saw all day, I don’t know what is. Metal Hammer reports a fan made footage of Stone Sour‘s pre-Halloween show has surfaced, in which you can see Corey Taylor in the costume of his life: full blown, pink hair drag. Slipknot is now officially obsolete. I feel like my head is going to explode, there are so many angles to take a jab at this situation, that I don’t know which one to pick. But you gotta give it to the man, you need balls (or some other organs) to come out in front of a few thousand people dressed like that. And while I think about the best joke, you can enjoy watching the (actually entertaining) video yourself.
Stone Sour's not so secret session
Wanna see Corey Taylor dressed like a hipster and pronouncing words like a douschebag (No, I’m not being a dick, listen to Through Glass and you’ll get my “quescheeon”)? Make the jump then, because Stone Sour‘s acoustic “Secret Session” unfortunately went public.
Corey Taylor, "Mad Genius"
Do you know those cheesy VH1 shows, where they talk about a washed up artist, and bring a bunch of even more washed up no ones to talk about them as if they have insight on what’s going on in someone’s head? Well, get a paper bag, because you might throw up, Fuse TV has its own show called Mad Genius, and they’re doing a special on Corey Taylor:
Each half-hour episode of “Mad Genius” explores in detail the lives and stories of brilliant, yet often rebellious artists like Lil Wayne, Britney Spears and Corey Taylor, all of whose eccentric personalities have resulted in groundbreaking music.
Wait, stop. Hahahahaha…
Through interviews with music executives, producers, friends, bandmates and other artists, each episode provides insight into how music’s wayward sons and daughters’ personalities and instinctual abilities contributed to their musical creations.
You can see three videos after the jump, where a bunch of people show how Corey is “mad” and a “genius”. I don’t know which alternate universe or timeline they live in, because I’d call the show ‘Whiny Mediocre.’
