Stone Sour

Stone Sour have released new song Taipei Person/Allah Tea, taken from their upcoming sixth album Hydrograd.

Following on from Song #3 and Fabuless, it’s the third song to be unveiled ahead of Hydrograd’s June 30 release date.

Speaking previously about the album, frontman Corey Taylor said: “We have six singles on this album. I’m really excited – this album is great because it’s got elements of everything. It’s got the heavy energy of the 80s, there’s punk moments, there’s hard rock moments – all the great amalgam of music.

“There’s even jazz and hip-hop moments, it’s really, really cool. It’s probably the coolest album I’ve made since the first Slipknot album. I feel very confident making that statement because it’s so good.”

The band also recently announced a 21-date European tour with The Pretty Reckless.
