For me, I love the fact I could take all of the criticism, all of the snarky comments, all of the bulls*** that it caused people to create a meme around me — and turn it into fodder for a song, and make people go, “F***!”, The beautiful thing is that some of those same people get it, and they go, “Ugh, well-played dude!” It’s the pretentious people who think they’re smarter than God that don’t get it, they say, “Well, it’s neanderthal…”, They called it “bro rock,” I was like, “What the f*** are you talking about?”. Do you find political discourse to be completely hypocritical and tiring? But listen, I’m a massive wrestling fan. I feel like we were the first group to cancel a major tour, because we were supposed to go to Southeast Asia right when everything was starting to go t**s up.
As much as I’d love to say that I could pull a Uwe Boll and have a bunch of critics get in the ring with me and I just start f***ing them up, no, probably not.
We’re tired of it!”. It was gonna be a long haul. 02.

Black Eyes Blue Listen to CMFT in one of the players below, and order the album here.
But at the same time, it’s a great vantage point, I love it. I did with the band I’ve been using for my solo shows for years, and just a bunch of people that I’ve been working with forever. I’m done with it.
That’s the way it is for the first couple of years of being a sober person. I’d imagine the song on your new album, “Culture Head,” fits in perfectly with this conversation, doesn’t it? That seems surprising because the last Slipknot album was received so well. How has quarantine been treating you? What happened this time that didn’t happen the last few times you entered the studio with your other bands? Do you think people are trying to tow the line: deciding when to classify something as a difference of opinion vs. a difference in morality? Are you excited to hear the debut solo album from Corey Taylor? “It was weird,” the 46-year-old Slipknot frontman explains. Oh, I’m sure I did, but I ignore all that crap.

The musical spectrum ranges from “CMFT Can’t Be Stopped” (featuring Tech 9ine and Kid Bookie), which delves into hip-hop, to “HWY 666”, which offers an outlaw country vibe. It’s ridiculous.

The only thing that matters to me is making music that I want to f***ing hear back.
