He joined Slipknot in late 1997 to replace their original lead singerAnders Colsefni and has subsequently released seven studio albums with them.

Corey Todd Taylor was born on December 8, 1973, inDes Moines, Iowa.[5][6][7] He was mostly raised by his single mother inWaterloo, Iowa, and described it as a "hole in the ground with buildings around it".[7] He is of German, Irish and Native American descent on his father's side, and Dutch and Irish on his mother's side.[8] Taylor, along with his mother and younger half-sister, would often move around the country in search for job prospects. By the time he was 15, he had "already lived in 25 states".[9] Around 1979, Taylor and his mother saw thesci-fi seriesBuck Rogers in the 25th Century. Before the series, there was a trailer for the 1978 horror filmHalloween. Taylor said this "developed some sense of Slipknot in [himself]".[7] WhileHalloween introduced Taylor to masks and horror themes, Taylor's grandmother introduced him torock music, showing him a collection ofElvis Presley records from the 1950s to 1970s. He especially found songs like "Teddy Bear", "In the Ghetto", and "Suspicious Minds" to appeal to his interests the most, describing them as "good times".[7] Taylor also began listening toBlack Sabbath at a young age, beginning with their early work.[7] He decided he wanted to become a singer when he and his cousin were singing along toJourney's "Separate Ways".[10]
In 1983, when he was nine years old, his mother and her boyfriend moved toFort Lauderdale, Florida, to become security guards forBurt Reynolds' ranch. However, as they were driving there, they got stranded inGeorgia and he lost some of his possessions.[9] By age 15, he had developed a drug addiction and had overdosed oncocaine twice.[11][12] By this time, he was living inWaterloo, but some time after this overdose, he returned to visit his grandmother in Des Moines, and according to Taylor, "stayed and never went back [to his mother's house]." She took legal custody of him so that he could continue going to school, and she helped him buy musical equipment. He would later describe his grandmother as his "strongest influence" as well as his "rock, foundation and stability."[13][1][14] When Taylor was 18, he left his grandmother's house and went to various places in Iowa, Des Moines being a place to which he frequently returned.[15] Taylor attendedLincoln High School in Des Moines but did not graduate. He later earned hisGED.[16][10]
In 2017, on an episode ofViceland'sThe Therapist, Taylor revealed that he wassexually abused at the age of 10 by a 16-year-old friend. Taylor stated that he never told anyone about the incident until he was "probably 18" because his abuser had "...threatened to hurt me and threatened to hurt my mom".[17] At age 17, when Taylor was living with his grandmother, he attempted suicide by way of overdose. His ex-girlfriend's mother drove him to the hospital in Des Moines and doctors were able to resuscitate him.[1] He describes this as the lowest point in his life.[18]
Taylor is a founding member of Americanhard rock bandStone Sour. After he formed the band in 1992[19] with drummer Joel Ekman,Shawn Economaki joined filling in the bass position, leaving the electric guitar position to be filled byJosh Rand. Stone Sour recorded ademo album in 1993, and another in 1994. In 1997, Taylor was approached by the metal band, Slipknot, resulting in him abandoning Stone Sour while they were recording a demo album with Sean McMahon at SR studios.[20][21] Taylor did not return until five years later to record their debut album,Stone Sour in 2002. Both Taylor and guitarist Josh Rand contactedJim Root, Slipknot's guitarist, and Shawn Economaki, Stone Sour's original bassist, to begin writing songs for their debut album.[22] Drummer Joel Ekman came back on board as well.[23][24] This "reformation" later resulted in Stone Sour recording at Catamount Studios inCedar Falls, Iowa.[23][25]
Their self-titled debut album was released August 27, 2002, and it debuted at number 46 on theBillboard 200.[26] Their second album,Come What(ever) May debuted at number four on the Billboard 200.[26] It was released August 1, 2006, and charted on several different charts.[26][27][28]Live in Moscow is currently their only album specifically released only for download.[29] During the recording of the album, drummerJoel Ekman left the band for personal reasons. As a result, drummerRoy Mayorga was recruited, taking his place.[30] The group released their third studio album,Audio Secrecy, on September 7, 2010.[31]
Later, Corey Taylor announced the release of a concept double album with Stone Sour. The albums are titled "House of Gold & Bones". During the process of making the double album, bassist Shawn Economaki left the band. He was temporarily replaced for touring purposes byJohny Chow. Thefirst part was released in October 2012 and thesecond part in April 2013. There are 23 songs in total, 11 on the first part and 12 on the second. In addition to these two albums is a four-part comic book series written by Taylor and published byDark Horse Comics, which went on sale in 2013. With these albums came a story that was written by Taylor that coincide with the album. Fans can also construct a miniature "house of gold and bones" from the packaging design of the physical versions of the two albums. Taylor has also said that he would like to finish off the project by making the story into a movie but nothing has come of this yet.[32][33][34]
In Des Moines, Iowa,Joey Jordison,Shawn Crahan, andMick Thomson approached him asking him to join Slipknot.[20] He agreed to go to one of their practices, and ended up singing in front of them. Of Slipknot's nine members, Corey was the sixth to join the band. Performing with Slipknot, he would also come to be known as "Number Eight", since the band follows a numbering scheme for its members, ranging from 0–8. According toShawn Crahan, Corey wanted number eight, because it symbolizesinfinity.[35]
Feeling he could expand more inside Slipknot than in Stone Sour, Taylor temporarily quit Stone Sour, even though they were recording an album with Sean McMahon.[21] Taylor's first gig with Slipknot was on August 24, 1997,[36] which according to band members did not go well. During his first gig, Taylor was performing with facepaint instead of a mask; however, for his second show on September 12, he wore a mask that resembles hisdebut album mask.[37]Taylor has recorded with Slipknot since the release of their seconddemo album, a self-titled demo used to promote the band to prospective labels and producers.[38] As their permanent vocalist, he recorded with Slipknot at Indigo Ranch inMalibu, California, and releasedSlipknot, the band's debut album that peaked at number one on theTop Heatseekers chart,[39][40] went double platinum in the United States,[41] and was included in the 2006 book1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.[42] Taylor was accused ofcopyright infringement regarding the lyrics of the song "Purity", but no action was taken.[43] Taylor began recording for their second studio album,Iowa, in 2001 at Sound City and Sound Image inVan Nuys, Los Angeles.[44] It was released August 28, 2001, and peaked at number one on theUK Albums Chart,[45] as well as number three on theBillboard 200.[46] While writingVol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses), Taylor decided to write lyrics that would not warrant an explicit label.[47] It peaked at number two on theBillboard 200.[48]All Hope Is Gone was the first Slipknot album to peak at number one on theBillboard 200.[49]
Taylor has appeared as a guest musician on albums bySoulfly,Apocalyptica,Damageplan,Steel Panther, andCode Orange. At one point, he was heavily involved in the recording ofthrash metal bandAnthrax's album,Worship Music, but the sessions remain unreleased.[50] He also contributed to theRoadrunner United all-star album in 2005, providing vocals for the song "Rich Man".[51] Taylor also made a brief appearance inSteel Panther'ssingles "Death to All but Metal", "Eyes of a Panther", and "Asian Hooker".[52] In 2006, Taylor founded the record companyGreat Big Mouth Records.[53] Taylor has produced two albums: Facecage's self-titled album andWalls of Jericho'sRedemption.[54][55] Taylor provided guest narration on the track "Repentance" forDream Theater's 2007 albumSystematic Chaos. In an interview withBillboard, Taylor confirmed that on January 13, 2009, he was planning on making a solo album, as well as returning to his side project Stone Sour after Slipknot'sAll Hope Is Gone World Tour.[56] Taylor has stated that he was writing songs that "don't fit either of his main bands."[56] He describes them as a cross betweenFoo Fighters,Johnny Cash, andSocial Distortion, saying that there's "a country background that comes built-in with living in Iowa".[56]
On March 30, 2009, it was confirmed that Taylor and theJunk Beer Kidnap Band would be performing atRockfest in 2009.[57] The group performed on April 24, 2009, at People's Court inDes Moines, Iowa, marking Taylor's first official solo show.[58] Taylor performs with his band the Dum Fux with Denny Harvey, who make covers for 1970spunk rock and 1980shair metal.[59] Taylor also performs with Audacious P, a band that is primarily aTenacious D cover band.[60] RapperTech N9ne confirmed that Taylor was to perform on his albumK.O.D., but was removed because Taylor did not submit his vocals in time,[61][62] though he would later make an appearance on Tech's 2015 albumSpecial Effects, on the song "Wither". Taylor recently admitted that he tried out for the vacant singer spot in the bandVelvet Revolver, but said that it just did not work out.[63] However, according to a recentBillboard article, it seems likely that he may in fact become the vocalist for Velvet Revolver, though no official confirmation has been made.[64]Duff McKagan added that they can neither "confirm or deny" Taylor's membership in the band but believes that Taylor is the "real deal".[65]Slash has since ruled Taylor out as the possible new vocalist explaining that "[it] just wasn't right" although he does love him.[66] Taylor has, however, recorded 10 new songs with the band, although drummerMatt Sorum stated it is unlikely they will ever be released.[67] Taylor explained toMark Hoppus onHoppus on Music that he and McKagan were writing new music for a possible new supergroup.[68]
On June 21, 2018, Taylor featured on the track "The Hunt" bymetallic hardcore bandCode Orange, the second track of the three-track EPThe Hurt Will Go On. In April 2019, Taylor collaborated on the song "Drugs" by the bandFalling in Reverse. In September 2019, he and his son Griffin were featured onNostalgia Critic's parody album ofPink Floyd'sThe Wall on a cover of the opening theme forSpongeBob SquarePants.[69]Taylor released his solo album,CMFT, on October 2, 2020, via Roadrunner Records.[70][71] The first two singles, "Black Eyes Blue" and "CMFT Must Be Stopped", were released on July 29, 2020.[72] Despite charting relatively well, he would later accuse Roadrunner of doing little to promoteCMFT.[73]
Taylor mentioned in an October 3, 2020, interview about a followup album entitledCMF2, which would be completed prior to a tour supporting both it andCMFT.[74] He contributed a cover of the Metallica song "Holier Than Thou" to the charity tribute albumThe Metallica Blacklist, released in September 2021.[75]
Between January 18 and March 6, 2023, Taylor spent time at various studios working onCMF2.[76][77] On April 27, 2023, Taylor signed a new record deal withBMG Rights Management to distributeCMF2, which will be released through his own imprint label, Decibel Cooper Recordings.[78] The first single from the album, "Beyond", was released on May 16, 2023.[79]
In 2024, Taylor appeared onBear McCreary's epic rock concept album, graphic novel, and concert experience -"The Singularity".
Taylor toldLoudwire in 2015 that if it were not forFaith No More, he "wouldn't be here today". While recovering from an attempted suicide, he saw the band perform "Epic" live on the1990 MTV Video Music Awards and the performance inspired him to begin writing and performing music again.[1] He has also stated thatPearl Jam had hugely influenced and inspired his music, saying that the group was "one of the biggest and best rock bands of all time".[80]
The first two Slipknot albums with Taylor's vocals,Slipknot andIowa, both contain substantialexplicit content. Many critics claimed Taylor relied on profanity, culminating in Slipknot's third album,Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses) largely lacking the use of swearing and not warranting the explicit label.[47] Compared with the previous vocalist for Slipknot, Anders Colsefni, Taylor has a vocal style that was characterized by the late, ex-drummerJoey Jordison as "really good melodic singing".[81] Taylor's vocal style, which contains at times melodic singing, growling, screaming, shouting, andrapping, led him to place at number 86 on theHit Parader'sTop 100 Metal Vocalists of All Time and is often compared to other vocalists such asIvan Moody,John Bush,Phil Anselmo, andJamey Jasta.[82]
On September 17, 2002, Taylor's then-fiancée, Scarlett, gave birth to their son, Griffin Parker Taylor who later became the lead vocalist innu metal bandVended.[83] Taylor also has a daughter from an earlier relationship.[83] Taylor and Scarlett married on March 11, 2004, and divorced in 2007.[84] On November 13, 2009, Taylor married Stephanie Luby at thePalms Hotel inLas Vegas.[84] They had a daughter, but separated in 2017.[85] On April 7, 2019, it was announced on hisInstagram page that he became engaged to Alicia Dove, creator of the dance and performance group "Cherry Bombs".[86] On October 6, 2019, the pair married.[87]
Taylor has had problems withalcoholism, which Scarlett helped him through as well as keeping him from ending his own life.[88] In 2006, Taylor told MTV that he had attempted to jump off a balcony of the eighth floor ofThe Hyatt onSunset Boulevard in 2003, but "somehow [Scarlett] stopped me". This was later recanted by Taylor in an interview withKerrang! radio, where he instead stated that it was his friendThom Hazaert who physically stopped him from jumping.[89] Scarlett then told him that either he would have to getsober or she would annul their marriage.[88] BeforeStone Sour started recordingCome What(ever) May in January 2006, Taylor was sober.[88][90]
On August 3, 2009, he co-hosted the 2009Kerrang! Awards alongsideScott Ian ofAnthrax.[91][92] The following year, they both once again co-hosted theKerrang! Awards, where Taylor collected the K! Services to Metal award on behalf ofPaul Gray, who died after an accidental overdose ofmorphine andfentanyl.[93][94]
In early September 2010, Taylor announced that his book,Seven Deadly Sins: Settling the Argument Between Born Bad and Damaged Good, would be released on July 12, 2011, throughDa Capo Press.[95]
Taylor politically identifies as acentrist and is also strongly opposed tocancel culture.[96][97] In an interview withThe Guardian in 2016, Taylor stated he was supportingBernie Sanders.[98]
He divides his time between homes in Des Moines, Iowa and Las Vegas, Nevada.[99]
In 2016, he had to have surgery in his neck after, in his own words, he "broke [his] neck a while back [and] didn't realize it".[100][101]
In April 2020, Taylor auctioned off 13 of his personal guitars to benefit Direct Relief's COVID-19 efforts, aiming to support healthcare workers and those impacted by the pandemic.[102]
