"Inhale" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance. "Get Inside" was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance.
Stone Sour isn't the first successful Slipknot side project; the Murderdolls (just barely) beat them to the starting gate. Like that group, though, Stone Sour actually started out long before Slipknot, but was ultimately revisited as an alternative to the Slipknot grind. Knotmen (if you will) Corey Taylor and Jim Root and their Stone Sour brethren offer nu-metal that's fully as hard-hitting as that of their day-job group, but with considerably more thoughtful compositional techniques and melodic sensibility. Sure, Taylor occasionally breaks into a gut-wrenching scream, but just as often he's twisting his voice around a serpentine melodic line that brings Alice in Chains to mind more than anything in the nu-metal lexicon.
Includes a bonus DVD.

Nowhere near as overly outrageous as Slipknot, but a damn shot better than alot of the nu-metal drivel knocking around lately. More along the lines of AIC and Soundgarden, with some Fear Factory, and of course, 'Slipknot' thrown in for good measure. Should apeal to most metal and Hardrock fans ( with the exception of the Hardcore, death/trash metal types ).
Stand out tracks include: 'Inhale', 'Cold Reader', 'Choose' and 'Bother' from the Spider-man soundtrack.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No An insight to Corey Taylors musical genius
This album has to be one of the best I have heard in a long time the guitar riffs are insane, a new sound that will still keep die hard slipknot fans interested but introduce you into a wider branch of heavy metal. Excellent you have to get it!

Purchase Stone Sour CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Chevelle Wonder What's Next CD (2002)
Stone Sour album
 $9.59   
With emotionally charged lyrics and heavy, crunching guitars, Chevelle sounds ready to take the hard rock world by storm. Although this album will fit nicely alongside fellow heavyweights Godsmack and Staind, Chevelle does not concentrate on penning deliberately gloomy compositions. The songs on this debut CD are all well crafted and stand on their own as testament to a band that knows what it wants to accomplish. A lush production brings out the thick sound in every instrument, as well as capturing the haunting, melodic vocals. The soaring vocals seem to be floating above a quagmire of chugging, churning riffs, using hope to stay afloat in a sea of murky sound. At times, an angry, aggressive ...
| | Mudvayne End Of All Things To Come CD (2002) Bonus DVD; Limited Edition
Stone Sour CD music
$16.09
THE END OF ALL THINGS TO COME contains an audio CD and a bonus DVD.
When Mudvayne's major-label debut appeared, many critics either lumped the band into the same rap-metal bag as Korn and Limp Bizkit, or merely dismissed the combo as a Slipknot rip-off. On THE END OF ALL THINGS TO COME, the group transcends the comparisons and wacky makeup to deliver a ferocious slab of the hard stuff that, for once, truly deserves to be termed "alternative." Equal parts Morbid Angel, Rush, and Shudder To Think, the disc highlights Mudvayne's ability to temper nu-metal's characteristic machine-gun riffing and throat-shredding vocals with a variety of quirky textural shifts and (gasp!) melodic vocalizing. Lyrically, the group mines the same nihilist/anarchistic territory popularized by Metallica and scores ...
| | Audioslave CD (2002)
Stone Sour music CDs
$9.59
AUDIOSLAVE was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Rock Album.
"Like A Stone" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance.
A modern day super-group composed of ex-members of heavy rock titans Soundgarden and Rage Against The Machine, Audioslave was subject to some pretty high fan expectations. Luckily, the group delivers just what the doctor ordered: a seamless mix of the styles that made the individual members famous. Basically a stoner rock record par excellence, AUDIOSLAVE strips the genre down to its core, serving up one pile-driving riff after another with minimal, but perfectly placed, production flash. In any given song, the band repeats said riffs with even more bone-crushing attitude each time.
Just when the listener thinks his/her head will go numb from too much stud-rock low E-string twanging and Montrose-era Sammy Hagar-esque wailing, however, Audioslave wisely throws in a ballad. Sure, it's a proven rock formula, but these guys are professionals fully in control of the situation; AUDIOSLAVE bristles with a no-frills, offhand intensity that throws down and reminds those silly nu-metal poseurs what heavy rock is all about.

| | Evanescence Fallen CD (2003)
Stone Sour songs
$8.99 
Evanescence won the 2004 Grammy Award for Best New Artist. FALLEN was nominated for Album Of The Year and for Best Rock Album. "Bring Me To Life" won for Best Hard Rock Performance. The song was also nominated for Best Rock Song.
Picture Tori Amos fronting Nickelback and you'll get an idea of the sound behind Evanescence, an Arkansas quartet whose introduction to the world came via the DAREDEVIL soundtrack. With its debut FALLEN, Evanescence further pushes the envelope on the aforementioned description, with frontwoman Amy Lee pouring her light-yet-strong vocals into the aggro-rock workout "Bring Me to Life" and industrial trip-hop of "My Last Breath." Although guitarists Ben Moody and John LeCompt leave no riff unplayed on hard-hitting cuts like "Going Under" and "Taking Over Me," Lee brings a nice balance to the table with her gorgeous piano runs, which come to the fore on the very Amos-like "Hello." The perfect balance of hard and soft is met on "Haunted" with its ambient nuance stoked by clattering beats and loops, crunching riffs, and the use of a children's choir. Goth-like in mood yet nu-metal in execution, FALLEN could very well have been where Amos' first group Y Kant Tori Read ended up had they not come along 15 years too soon.
Personnel: Amy Lee (vocals); David Hodges (piano, keyboards, programming); Josh Freese (drums); Chris Johnson , Zac Baird (programming).

| | Godsmack Faceless CD (2003) Enhanced CD
Stone Sour album
$11.99
"Straight Out Of Line" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance.
Godsmack first came to fame with a seamless blend of Metallica-like vocals and hooks and seemingly Tool-inspired prog-metal sensibilities all combined into an unrelentingly aggressive sonic attack. FACELESS continues in that tradition, delivering blow after aural blow via hellfire guitar riffs, devil's-anvil drums, and a gut-wrenching sense of dynamics. As implied above, singer Sully Erna alternates handily between James Hetfield-style lion growl and more vulnerable Maynard James Keenan tones, singing of all that's gone wrong both in himself and in the world that surrounds him, while the rest of the band does a fine job of representing the mayhem of modern society.
Unlike many other nu-metal types, Godsmack doesn't feel the need to leaven their attack with crossover-potential ballads and orchestral/electronic interludes. FACELESS provides one breathless bash after another without fail, never giving an inch until the very end, when the percussion-and-chanting strains of "The Awakening" give way to the largely ...
| | Stone Sour Come What(Ever) May CD (2006)
Stone Sour CD music
$15.65
Before joining Slipknot, guitarist Jim Root and vocalist Corey Taylor fronted Stone Sour, an alt-metal act with melodic sensibilities. The success of Slipknot inspired Root and Taylor to reform their original outfit, and the band's self-titled debut proved a success. Stone Sour's sound is reminiscent of Slipknot's, yet is distinctive enough to stand on its own merits.
COME WHAT(EVER) MAY, the group's sophomore effort, pushes Stone Sour's sound a bit further than its predecessor. While the album's sonic attack is still unremittingly heavy, with thunderous drums and distortion-saturated riffs, there's also a keen sense of accessibility that foregrounds melody and eschews thrash in favor of flat-out hard rock. These elements, combined with Taylor's throaty voice, place Stone Sour a cut above your average post-grunge metal outfit, and COME WHAT(EVER) MAY hints that the group may be poised for a ...
| | Los Straitjackets Velvet Touch Of Los Straightjackets CD (1999)
Stone Sour music CDs
$13.49
All tracks have been digitally mastered using HDCD technology.
Los Straitjackets' third album, The Velvet Touch of los Straitjackets, contains more witty, knowing guitar instrumentals that appropriate the best of surf, jangly pop, rockabilly, and spaghetti Western soundtracks with aplomb. Driving surf numbers like "Tempest" and "Hornet's Nest" are mixed with sweeter sounds like "Close to Champaign" and a cover of "My Heart Will Go On" that places the song closer to the Pacific shoreline than Atlantic icebergs. Klezmer and Mexican elements flavor songs like "Tabouli" and "Tijuana Boots," and while the group's inherent ...

| | Velvet Night CD (1970) Bonus Track
Stone Sour album
$15.35
Velvet Night's sole album is very much an unintentional portrait of its era -- so classically on the cusp of late-'60s into '70s hard psych/heavy metal that it almost seems like it couldn't exist any other time. From the choice of covers that appear throughout (including a four-song Cream medley that ranges from the fair to the somewhat goofy) to the purple/false color scheme on the sleeve, everything about the album is of a glowering piece in many respects. The sextet's work isn't a lost classic by any means, but neither is the recorded evidence a tedious washout -- if only scholars of the time will really want to hear this in the end, there have been far worse albums rescued from obscurity. Lead singer Lynn Boccumini's vocal work, if obviously indebted to Grace Slick in part if not in whole, does provide a good calling card for the band, while her polite take on a more blues-leaning approach, evident in moments like the conclusion of their take on Donovan's "Season of the Witch." To their credit, the original numbers stand out more than the remakes, some of which were written by their producers Jimmy Curtiss and Steve Kanyon, such as the title (and thus bandname) song, which starts with a swirl of keyboard and guitar chaos before settling into an attractive but still slightly off chug. But the version of the Band's "The Weight" -- especially whichever male member is trying to do the lead vocals -- is definitely a step too far. ~ Ned Raggett
