Corey Taylor keeps himself plenty busy between Slipknot and his new solo project. Still, Taylor tells GalaxyCon that he'd love to make a whiskey jazz-style record at some point. Which I'm assuming means a generally dirtier, Tom Waits-kinda thing – Googling whiskey jazz only brought up YouTube video compilations of jazz music with pictures of whiskey. So not exactly helpful.
"I definitely want to do a jazz album at some point. I talked about it in a couple of different interviews and stuff. But I definitely have a certain style of jazz that I kind of gravitate towards more — like a dirtier size of jazz; the whiskey jazz is what they call it… I definitely still want to do a darker acoustic album.
"I don't write stuff like that all the time, and the reason I don't do that is because it's so easy for me; I can write that shit in my sleep. I like tripping out on all the genres that I grew up listening to and trying to create some amalgam hybrid that is exciting and kind of pops and gets people into the stuff that I was listening to.
"Other than that, I don’t know, man. I’ve done it all."
In the meantime, Taylor is pretty much finished with vocals for the new Slipknot record.
