Corey Taylor, Book Signing Tour, “The Seven Deadly Sins”

I don’t know. Thirty-seven may be a bit premature for a memoir, but hey, Corey Taylor’s written one. Taylor is an original member of Stone Sour and since 1997, the replacement singer for Slipknot. He’s released a total of seven studio albums — three with the former and four with the latter. Like many rock stars, Taylor has followed the usual path — one filled with drug and alcohol addiction. He had OD’d on coke twice already by the age of fifteen, and in 2006, he revealed that in 2003 he had attempted to jump off the balcony of his eighth floor suite at the Hyatt on Sunset Boulevard. He was apparently stopped by his then-fiancée, Scarlett Stone, who married him the following year and divorced him in 2007. Needless to say, he must have many tales to tell. “The Seven Deadly Sins” will be released on July 12, 2011.

From the Publisher
For the first time, Slipknot and Stone Sour frontman Corey Taylor speaks directly to his fans and shares his worldview about life as a sinner. And Taylor knows how to sin. As a small-town hero in the early ’90s, he threw himself into a fierce-drinking, drug-abusing, hard-loving, live-for-the moment life. Soon Taylor’s music exploded, and he found himself rich, wanted, and on the road. His new and ever-more extreme lifestyle had an unexpected effect, however; for the first time, he began to actively think about what it meant to sin and whether sinning could–or should–be recast in a different light. Seven Deadly Sins is Taylor’s personal story, but it’s also a larger discussion of what it means to be seen as either a “good” person or a “bad” one. Yes, Corey Taylor has broken the law and hurt people, but, if sin is what makes us human, how wrong can it be?
