STONE SOUR DISCOGRAPHY KAT FULL
Corey Taylor and James Root returned to Slipknot to record their fourth full length studio album, All Hope Is Gone. The band toured for the next year and a half, releasing the Live in Moscow album exclusively to iTunes on August 14, 2007. It was met with great reviews from critics, and sold 80,000 copies in the first week, allowing it to debut at number four on the Billboard 200. The album was released on August 1, 2006. The track 30/30-150 was recorded with Godsmack drummer Shannon Larkin. They parted ways with drummer Joel Ekman currently drumming for Isaac James, who left to take care of his cancer-stricken son, and later recruited current drummer, Roy Mayorga of Soulfly. The band came back in 2006 to release their second studio album, Come What(ever) May. The band toured for six months with label mates Sinch and Chevelle before going on a temporary hiatus as Taylor and Root went back to join Slipknot for another album and tour. Aided by the song "Bother" which was featured on the Spider-Man soundtrack (credited only to Taylor), the album went on to become Gold. Stone Sour (Self-titled album) (2002 - 2003)Īfter Josh Rand joined the band, the band recorded their debut self-titled album in Cedar Falls, Iowa, which was released on 31 July 2002 in the UK, and on the 1st of August in the US. Ekman stayed in Des Moines and started a family. Root actually didn't join the band until a year after Taylor, and Economaki went on to become Stage left guitar tech. In 1997 the band went on hiatus, during which Taylor and Root spent most of their time with Slipknot, who were another up-and-coming act in Des Moines and would soon earn a record deal. The band was named after an alcoholic drink that consists of one part whiskey, one part orange juice, with a splash of sour mix. The group was complete, and in 1996 recorded another demo tape, and songs from which would later be used in 2002 on their self titled debut album, Stone Sour. Shortly after, in 1995, James Root - who is now also part of Slipknot with Taylor - joined the band. During these formative years, Stone Sour recorded 2 demo tapes, in 19. The band had played clubs and bars with different guitarists - often filling the position for just one show. Taylor's long time friend, Shawn Economaki joined shortly after, and filled in as the bass player. Stone Sour was founded by Corey Taylor, vocalist of Slipknot, and former drummer Joel Ekman.
