Corey Taylor is now streaming his surprisingly heavy new solo single "Post Traumatic Blues" from his forthcoming solo studio album, CMF2. Musically, the song feels like a marriage of straightforward hard rock built for radio and maybe a touch of Slipknot. Though the two projects sharing a vocalist certainly make that an easy comparison, right?
"'Post Traumatic Blues' is my attempt to describe for people what it's like to deal with PTSD," said Taylor. "Sometimes it's so hard for people to understand the ups and downs, the severity of the cold and numbness, that I wanted to try and build a bridge lyrically between the ones living with the disease and the ones who are trying to help them."
CMF2 is out September 15. Pre-orders are available here. You can also catch Taylor on tour at one of the dates below, and get your tickets here.
