“Anthemic, catchy and powerful” – REVOLVER

“CMF2 is a party album, pure and simple. Corey Taylor and his band have built upon the strengths of its predecessor and refined their core sound into something distinct, forceful and utterly exhilarating.” – METAL HAMMER

“To say that Corey Taylor was charismatic is equivocal to saying that the sun is hot. Gliding across stage with a swaying swagger likely to give Mick Jagger imposter-syndrome, the legend was all smile — and why wouldn’t he be? This was his crowd. Whether there for Slipknot, Stone Sour, the solo songs or SpongeBob, the crowd were united in their adoration, and for good reason. Although Corey Taylor might be better known for the dark and oppressive songs of his masked menagerie, his masterful set, across all of his different eras, was superb.”  – BRING THE NOISE UK

 

Fresh on the heels of completely sold out shows throughout Europe and Australia tours, the GRAMMY® Award-winning, multi-platinum singer-songwriter, actor, and New York Times best-selling author Corey Taylor is back for another North American tour in support of his acclaimed new solo studio album, CMF2. 

Best known as vocalist and lyricist for Slipknot, Stone Sour, and as a solo artist, Taylor’s solo shows are a no-holds barred, unapologetic rock ‘n roll celebration, and openers Des Rocs and Jigsaw Youth will get the party kicked off early. The 20-date headline tour, produced by Live Nation, kicks off in Canada with shows in Toronto and Montreal followed by stops in New York City, Philadelphia, Grand Rapids, Atlanta, and Charlotte, to name a few.

“The first US tour was such a massive success that we had to raise the stakes on this next leg,” says Taylor. “We’re so stoked to be going out with Des Rocs and Jigsaw Youth, and ready to turn sh*t up a f*cking notch. Get ready for a good f*cking time.”

Ticket sales and fan excitement aside, CMF2 was released in September to critical praise and massive chart impact – the album debuted at #2 on Hard Rock Albums andamp; #14 on Overall Album Sales (Billboard). The first single, “Beyond”, hit #1 on the U.S. Active Rock chart, as well as in the Top Ten Rock songs in Canada and Germany.

CMF2, Taylor’s first album for BMG and the first on his own label imprint, Decibel Cooper Recordings, was produced by Jay Ruston (Anthrax, Steel Panther, Amon Amarth), who also produced Stone Sour’s 2017 Hydrograd as well as Taylor’s solo debut release, CMFT.

The 13-track opus released packs the energy, experimentation, and forthrightness that’s defined a career which has seen him sell more than 12 million albums with his GRAMMY® Award-winning band Slipknot and several million with chart-toppers Stone Sour. Throughout CMF2, Taylor sings and plays lead and rhythm guitar, piano, and mandolin.

The official video supporting the anthemic new single “We Are The Rest” was shot at a remote location within California’s Mojave Desert. Captured through the lens of director Dale “Rage” Resteghini (Hatebreed, Trivium), the clip finds Taylor and his bandmates situated in a post-apocalyptic, Mad Max meets 90’s punk rock skatepark atmosphere surrounded by hundreds of raucous audience members.
