Corey Taylor Comments On New Single, "Sillyworld"

Launch Radio Networks reports: Stone Sour's latest single, "Sillyworld", is one of the most experimental songs on the band's second album, Come What(ever) May, with fans saying it sounds a little like Pink Floyd. Lead singer Corey Taylor told Launch that he's heard the Floyd comparison and several more. "It's actually, you know, one of four bands that that song gets compared to, you know," he said. "There's the obvious Pink Floyd comparison. There's The Beatles. Somebody actually compared it to King Crimson, which I was like, 'What?' (laughs) But it was a song that Jim (Root, guitarist) brought in, that I immediately reacted to. I was like, 'Oh, I love this.' And it just became this really sweet, kind of old-school rock."

As previously reported, Stone Sour is headlining the latest installment of the Jagermeister Music Tour.

Yeah, I don't mind this song. The album isn't bad either. I do prefer Slipknot way over Stone Sour but...what can you do?
