Corey Taylor says the next Stone Sour album won’t arrive until 2017.
The frontman says the band will take their time recording the follow-up to 2013’s House Of Gold & Bones – Part 2 while he tours with Slipknot over the coming months.
He tells Loudwire: “Right now we’re kind of taking our time, because the rest of this year is touring with Slipknot, off and on.
“But the cool thing is we’re getting together every couple of months and writing songs and stuff. Right now we have 15 that are really strong. Do another 10 and see where we’re at.
“Timeline-wise, we’ll hopefully get into the studio either in January or February of next year. Get that together in a couple of months and then try to get the album out by the summer.”
Stone Sour recently shared their 30⁄30-150 demo to celebrate the 10th anniversary of their second album Come What(ever) May.
Meanwhile, Slipknot will tour North America with Marilyn Manson and Of Mice & Men next month.
