Biography
Although Slipknot made their mainstream debut in the late '90s, singer Corey Taylor and guitarist Jim Root got their start a few years before in Stone Sour. Described as a cross between Metallica and Alice in Chains, the group was put aside when the two men joined Slipknot. In the spring of 2002, Root and Taylor got in contact with original guitarist Josh Rand and bassist Sean Economaki and re-formed Stone Sour to record their first album. The self-titled debut gained two Grammy nominations and was RIAA-certified gold.
