Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor Reflects on The Death of Paul Gray

[@dr.frenchtoast7620]

I love how Larry gets more and more comfortable as the interview goes on, and realizes how well spoken Corey is.

[@cross7fu]

"I love cooking" . . I push my fingers into my pies

[@BassGuitarGuy128]

hahaha this comment deserves more likes

[@dnmcfall]

cross7fu 😂

[@michaelsetchell5287]

I just sang that in my head and now I look like an idol laughing at nothing lol

[@cbd7575]

Sonichu Zappem but it’s made of all the things I haven’t ATEEEEEE

[@FactQuestTV]

I push my fingers into my pies It's the only thing I really like to bake But it's made of all the things I like to taste Jesus it never ends, cooking takes too much time If the (hunger) pain goes on.....

[@DrMantoots1]

when he laughs with the mask on....that scared the total shit out of me

[@jefftriphahn3496]

Reminded me of Shao Kahn from MK2.

[@OZHKAR1]

:O

[@michelleclee5504]

Chris Hayes thats funny

[@callmewaves1160]

Aww that's cute 😆

[@sarahc2951]

corey is so dang well spoken. I can listen to him speak all day

[@TheMistyreneeb]

Same. Definitely same🤘💖

[@sebastianperezmusic]

That is, if Larry would just let him speak

[@jacoblandman7345]

It’s very relaxing

[@fatherchapel]

Absolutely devastating that we lost Paul and now Joey. RIP to both legends. My heart goes out to the families and the members of slipknot 💔

[@failtolawl]

yea get your pity likes and go away

[@jackjamesgodsell9586]

Unfortunately You're right.

[@selfishstockton6123]

Larry King as well

[@matts.5728]

I love how Corey adapts to LK's mode of questioning. There are some points where LK allows Corey to really expand on an answer, but there are times when LK is very paint by numbers and doesn't give Corey mich of a chance to fully answer but Corey goes with it accordingly.

[@honeyandlavender_]

So Corey Taylor wanted Slipknot to have masks because they didn't want to be noticed for their physical appearance but goddamit who the fuck doesn't have a huge crush on this guy?? He's fucking hot.

[@andydunn8929]

hahahaha awwww

[@andydunn8929]

HAHAHA awww bless anyways if I was a chick then id have a crush on the guy. Anyways what you were saying about the reason behind the masks I heard some where in 1998 or 1999 they had a hard tme getting signed for a record label company ( accompany that signs you and sells your material one step before getting global scale in the music business.) So I heard it was a fresh very rare seen in the 90's so if they wore masks they might get signed because the musics gd and the masks look cool it brought more attention to the band, also the masks originate from Shawn Crahan he brought in in the early days old slipknot 1996-1998 and he brought it in to scare everybody when working on the MFKR album or self debut album I cant remember which one and they whole group fell in love with the masks. Also soon after the masks are uniquely and individually made they created them themselves and they have a emotional connection to it to each masks that come out through different Era's. ill explain I think joey chose his first mask because it was the japan style mask his mother used to scare hoim with a child so therefore his first taste of the slipknot style/music, corey taylor chose his mask because it represented what he felt and thought at the time he was in a bad place in the older days so they have a unique feel and meaning to each mask, the Iowa version of corey masks look like the first one but has a battered look to it this is because well I think I heard Iowa was a bad time for them and he developed self harm and alcohol abuse and he had a bad poor childhood so the mask represents depression suicidal tendencies and melancholy, and vol 3 was a hidden face to disguise or reveal bits of him he wanted no other to see I think anyway. Theres deep meaning behind slipknot song masks and opinion's and that's why myself a 17 year old british male love them, I love stone sour too

[@honeyandlavender_]

Andy Dunn I've heard different stories as to why they wear masks. But I definitely believe this one since he, Corey, has explained it several times too.

[@honeyandlavender_]

Ross Gordon Lol, who wouldn't

[@roger3198]

I'm straight, but it still doesn't work. he's still fucking irresistible. too fucking hot! it should be Illegal. hahaha

[@valoxiii422]

King: "Does the whole band wear different masks?" Corey: "Yeah..they.." King: "Put it on." Me: "You demanding son of a bitch...."

[@swisscheeseplease97]

Larry came from a generation where men could talk frankly with each other

[@CH4RLIEonUtube]

Corey is a real good persons and a real rock n roll metal singer, The best i think in at this time and in this era!

[@mhthaflyguy4809]

CH4RLIEonUtube completely agree, one of the greats of this generation, great range. it's amazing he's went this long n not blew out his voice

[@patrickcurrier1442]

Yup

[@cagatayocal7049]

CH4RLIEonUtube nine inch nails is his idols

[@dewilew2137]

CH4RLIEonUtube chill

[@robertrowe2599]

I agree he brings respect to metal

[@RandomPerson-jg5qm]

27:07 "I love cocaine" is what I heard

[@cowkid220]

+Random Person Same i had to listen to it again to work out what he said.

[@stevencux3891]

He says he loves cooking Not Cocaine Practice your listening

[@petersrensen9251]

+Omar Gotcha Go fuck yourself

[@carpalway]

+Random Person larry: all kinds?

[@tnightwolf]

"all kinds?"

[@jakelandsbury252]

People need to stop disrespecting Larry. He's straight to the point on each question, okay he could of been more sympathetic about Corey's band mate, but Corey is clearly happy with how the interview went. He answered all the questions happily and well, I'm sure if anything pissed him off it would show. Chill guys

[@jacquelinedominguezchavira5775]

Exactly!

[@shawnc666]

I thought it was an awesome interview....

[@dave-hc2vi]

It wasn't the best interview, but that's just because King is completely clueless about metal(not surprising of course). I didn't think that there was anything wrong with how he asked anything. That's just how he is, and like you said Corey didn't seem annoyed or anything.

[@evilivy666]

I think this is a great interview for people who don't really know metal music that well, its good for more people to understand different kinds of music. Larry King isn't THAT bad. Some questions did on the spot.

[@ih8temoney]

Larry is a great interviewer! Seems extremely interested in what Corey has to say. Corey seems comfortable with the interview. Great video!

[@TheAcolossus]

Larry sounds like someones grandad.."So you children play that loud guitar music?" 😂😂😂😂

[@PowerVoltaire]

I seriously thought he said I love cocaine but it was cooking...:/

[@stratastrophicguitar917]

Thought I was the only one who heard that 😂😂

[@PowerVoltaire]

stratastrophic guitar lol

[@李正約]

Im in love with the coco XD

[@PowerVoltaire]

李正約 me 2! ;)

[@otis3919]

+PowerVoltaire same i had to watch it 10 times to find out

[@SuneTheMairn]

Larry King...of interruptions. Damn it bugs me

[@aniokey]

I will point the same thing!! it's so annoying

[@smars1161]

Yes! I thought the same thing! He'll ask one question, allow Corey to put 1 sentence in then BAM! A question that's on a completely different topic.

[@aniokey]

and He asks like three times if corey uses mask at stone sour xd and I consider so disrespectufl when he said: "do you consider heavy metal is music?"...

[@sydIRISH]

Most big shot radio/TV hosts do it. It drives me fucking nuts as well. I agree with you. If you ask your guest a question, allow your guest to answer that question. It's common courtesy.

[@southernreptile9661]

+sydIRISH I was waiting for clown to whack Larry with a bat haha

[@SotonSam]

Feels like I'm watching Corey Taylor's CIA interview

[@Guanjyn]

Good interview. I don't mind that Larry interrupts because he gets more out of Corey, instead of him going on about something on one question. Quick and to the point.

[@sofaking1627]

Never realized how much I liked Larry King He had such a genuine "no BS" style while still being so relaxed and conversational. Feels like one of those guys with no enemies.

[@mackenziecarder2289]

"My biggest fear is sharks" *2 years later* plays a role in the new Sharknado movie

[@trevisthomas9628]

Larry king was asking questions before the first one was done like "can we get this over with"

[@mariusevenstuen5564]

"Is heavy metal music"? are u kidding me? Why the fuck would you have a heavy metal frontman on your show if you're going to be that disrespectful? Jesus christ

[@adam-kv3tv]

well said

[@fredogknopfler]

Actually, he's not being disrespectful. Listen to the question. He wants someone from the heavy metal world answer that to people who maybe never listened to metal. Larry King demographic is what it is, so that question, so straight to the point is a good way to get an explanation for someone who never listened metal from someone who makes and lives it.

[@Carissa99Xo]

I have no problem Larry asking "stupid questions" that's how I would act if I had to do an interview on something I knew absolutely nothing about. He's a good sport for trying and I actually think he likes people who are very different from himself.

[@Rukiakuchikixo]

It’s his interview style I think really. He’s very to the point and always has been I don’t understand why people don’t understand he interviews everyone’s the same. He’s also older and if metal isn’t his thing he’s personable and like a true journalist people be by being totally unbiased.

[@jeremyandrew2229]

hearing black metal mentioned on Larry King is kind of funny

[@ScarryChili]

27:11 At first I thought he said "I love cocaine". And it really didn´t make sense when he already said that he didn´t do drugs anymore xD

[@SirLangsalot]

Corey is such a friendly, intelligent, personable guy.

[@SpeakLikeAColombian]

Corey Taylor seems to be a pretty great guy.

[@metfan4l]

Great guy

[@threecubed3]

Oh hi there metfan4l

[@8Scientist]

Am I the only person who thinks that this is actually a really good interview. Larry asks Corey all of these open ended questions and just lets Corey have the time to give full answers. I don't think he is trying to be disrespectful at all, and I cant see him at any point trying to push his opinion on things.

[@kevinpalardy8592]

this was one of the best interviews or Corey Taylor... totally different then most interviews.. and Larry King.. well hes being himself

[@theadjuster151]

David Eastwell no way man, ido too! Corey answers everything he asks. Larry would be cool to drink beer with too!

[@yomamasayshey]

6:23 I don't think Larry ever watched Supernatural.

[@m1nayondaime]

Reference to dean humming Metallica on the plane? :P

[@yomamasayshey]

Nick Baars Yes!

[@94JCA]

The fact that Larry King had to ask whether the members wear different masks.

[@ashlynkate8998]

Everybody is saying how rude he was in this when in reality this is the kindest I've EVER seen Larry.

[@ddiotte]

The man is such an amazing vocalist.

[@JordanHowmann]

Larry deserves more praise here. What a great interview. I think Larry gave many artists a platform to talk seriously but dude definitely asked emotional thought provoking questions

[@mariamichael5394]

Corey is like a textbook of Metal and music in General

[@NPK476]

I miss Larry King, he was genuinely interested in everyone he interviewed and had a point blank style about his questions.

[@carlosl.garcia2745]

what a great interview, thank you guys! 💪💀🤘

[@GLMusic12]

damn larry king really messed up this interview

[@JonNichol37]

Its bizarre, I'm now 30 and when i was in 7th grade my favorite band was slipknot and they are a award winning band. They made sence out of the hell i had no trouble but to go through

[@nicky9644]

Corey droppin some advanced Jazz knowledge tho

[@Coreytaylorrock2]

@nicky Y'all are the damn best. I'm honored to have the kind of support that you show me, thank you. How are you doing it is nice meeting you here btw.

[@spookydakat2859]

I like Corey's chuckle, so cute!

[@Allagi22]

Larry King asks "Are your concerts very long?" and Taylor says "Yeah they get there. We've done almost two hours" Whaaaaat? Any rock/metal fan should know that is by no means considered LONG. Corey Taylor should know that. I would consider an hour and a half a BARE minimum for a big band to play live.

[@danman6669]

Yeah, considering Bruce Springsteen and Pearl Jam normally go over three hours in their concerts, almost two hours is nothing.

[@GoggleKack]

ok the bands you motioned don't expend half the energy that Slipknot does

[@lucasl1677]

danman6669 lol have you watched a Slipknot show. Way more Exshausting then Bruce Springsteen

[@paulablack1863]

GoggleKack I agree. They have extremely energetic shows. They wear me out just by jammin with em!

[@jamesgutierrez4695]

Rest in peace Mr Larry King you were a true legend

[@julien.biardeau]

Great interview ! I just don't agree when corey says that slipknot is heavy metal, for me slipknot has always been and will forever be Nu Metal ! But in a darker and heavier way that Korn's style.

[@jwreckxiv]

It was and is Nu Metal. Corey calls Slipknot HEAVY AS FUCK METAL, obviously you cant say that on this interview so when he says heavy we know what it means.

[@DaLittleGee]

J Wreck Tyler the Creator cursed up a storm.....

[@eriicgiese]

Slipknot is groove metal, please listen one of the the new album songs like "Sarcastrophe" and tell is that is nu metal, NOT

[@julien.biardeau]

I have the new album, and i m not sayin that all their songs are nu metal, i m sayin that Slipknot is a nu metal band in the soul, the heart or whatever u know what I mean. Listen to skeptick, lech or custer, (maybe the bonus track the burden too but I m not sure) those are Nu metal ! Even AOV if u skip the chorus

[@julien.biardeau]

J Wreck Ah okay I didn't understand that :-)

[@cad_elf3433]

I said this on another Slipknot video. Iowa is one the most literate and educated states in the union. And we've all heard of "Iowa nice" and Corey is like, a perfect representative of the state.

[@BrendanOHara617]

Great interview. Seems like such a cool guy.

[@JaySay]

God damn, it always makes me so happy hearing again and again how much of a good and nice person Corey is! Fucking love you Corey!

[@AirborneAnt]

Larry was a little snarky with his questioning…but Corey is such a good intelligent dude that he just bobs and weaves and answers the questions with the upmost human professionalism…BRAVO COREY :)

[@shippymcship364]

Cory is a smart respectful man and I think Larry thought it was a breath of fresh air for him .

[@bobathecrane1966]

rest in peace Larry

[@thepredator666qc4]

@amanda Y'all are the damn best. I'm honored to have the kind of support that you show me, thank you. How are you doing it is nice meeting you here btw.

[@warwick02]

I'm surprised Corey admitted that Paul died from overdose. Normally, he says he died from heart disease (which I know was a contributing factor) either way, R.I.P. Paul. You are sorely missed.

[@cdyoung976]

I think the question is weird about Slipknot being too much like Stone Sour, while that may have been true in previous albums myself included everybody I know that like Slipknot since the gray chapter came out has reveled in the fact of how much it sounds like the first Slipknot album but regardless I love them both

[@calistakathryn3643]

Larry trying to figure out which band he’s talking about is like 4 year old me trying to tell the difference between Selena Gomez and Ariana Grande

[@Coreytaylorrock2]

I think Larry King hate Slipknot.

[@adrenaline112]

My man, dude talks so educated and so profound. Definitely kills the stereotypes given to heavy metal bands.

[@m00mai]

[@YaHUKaB_ShaRYAL_YaShaRAL]

Its because us metalheads are more intelligent than people think.

[@kristyannandretti4637]

[@aboutagirl13]

🔥🔥

[@brunobb1]

Is it just me or does Larry King cut off Corey Taylor during most of the interview?

[@Kaiverze]

Bruno Silva it really got on my nerves, but Corey handled it very well, as if nothing. Respect.

[@ericmarshall5725]

Bruno Silva corey kinda treated it as if he was talking to his great grandfather, you can't really call him out on his shit just because he's so old aha

[@danryan3146]

+Bruno Silva It is not just you. Larry did not show much interest in Cory or his story...too bad, he seems like he has some interesting perspectives.

[@cmalexx13]

+Bruno Silva In television, the anchor has a limited time in which he has to cover all questions and topics. Larry does this in a really professional manner, and I think that Corey knows this as well. I also work at a local TV station as an editor and I know how important the air time within the program is.

[@twitch1825]

Yeah what was the point interviewing Corey if he ain't gonna listen

[@crumplycrumplestin5749]

Corey Taylor: "I come up with the conce- Larry King: Put it on

[@Jodyjo99]

HAHAHAHAH

[@ledarbyromeo9667]

[@hiphopghost1]

Lol this more like an interrogation than an interview.

[@Orisni]

You know.... Or like a deposition

[@bchristopher7584]

lol classic larry

[@JCridford]

Corey's comparison of free jazz and Sonny Rollins against metal and other genres goes to show how much this guy actually understands about music!

[@MsTrBeLyFLOP]

looks like corey is at a job interview

[@aminkhalilnasab927]

exactly

[@peanutbutterisfu]

That’s a really spot on!

[@phsycosloan]

It's a little deeper than that, but yeah

[@Job.Well.Done_01]

He’s probably trying not to freak out. A kid from Iowa on the Larry King show! Who would’ve ever thought?

[@swisscheeseplease97]

Well it’s Larry King. He’s a legend in interviewing he was around for decades.

[@mellindrums]

Larry seems really uninterested and he clearly hasn't done any research on Slipknot/Corey/Metal music before the interview..

[@Cr4nium13]

He seems to be like that with everyone

[@marcofurtado5459]

He just lets the guest speak and never interrupts him...That's why so good at it...

[@ArrivalAlert]

Obviously hes done reseach and whatnot but there will be people watching the show thhat wont know who slipknot are so its his job to get everything across as clear as possible, do you not know how an interview works?

[@ilmarierakare3795]

Actually that is a part of his work. He does this for the audience, not for himself. However he is probably doing this work because he wants to.

[@dylanvalorfall]

Yep

[@philbear6868]

I've met Corey 3 times...on one occasion actually hung out with him before a show...he is EXACTLY the person you see in this interview. He's down to earth with no ego and truly appreciates his fans

[@fe5018]

That's cool to hear. You really get the sense that this interview gave a solid and insightful picture of the dude but it's nice to have it confirmed 👍

[@Mothafukka8]

thats good 2 hear

[@andrewcantor-wagner2056]

Proudest accomplishment, "the fact that my kids are pretty good people" All father's everywhere felt that man. This dude has awards, money, fame... But it all comes down to family. He's got his priorities right

[@mrThorleifsen]

[@theresaabreu3424]

[@Amenta013]

+Toornap Tarraa His best evil laughs are the ones on stage though :)

[@whokilledzekeiddon]

I remember trying to explain Slipknot to my granddad once. It was about as uncomfortable and disjointed as this. To his absolute credit, Taylor figured out how it was going to go early and dealt with it with more humility and patience than he probably should have. Fuck, imagine if it was Clown in that seat.

[@Jacen436987]

lmfao, imagine if craig sat in that seat. "so craig, how about some questions." "......" "please?" "......." "cmon man." "......" -continues sitting there-

[@YuriMaddison]

Steven Jacen that would make for a great interview

[@WAMMO678]

Clown is a nice and reasonable guy. If you aren't rude or ignorant to him you're fine.

[@Jacen436987]

lmfao. i'd actually love to see another interview with sid, the one on inside the nine was cool. i also like the interviews jim roots had.

[@gandalf29]

There was nothing uncomfortable about the interview.

[@dudedude2938]

is kiss heavy metal? sounds like everybodies dad

[@BassGuitarGuy128]

What about U2? Are they heavy metal?

[@zamek4744]

Not my dad, he listens to metal as well. He doesn't really like Slipknot though, he likes some of their songs, same with Korn, but he likes Metallica, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Slayer, Anthrax, Megadeth etc.

[@johncrossing]

dude dude Eh. Well. For their time they could have been considered a genre of metal. Metal has meant a lot of different things over the past few decades. Blue Oyster Cult is described as a “Heavy Metal” band, and their stuff is comparatively tame to modern metal.

[@callmewaves1160]

I would say hard rock at best.

[@GabeTheLemurPlayed]

dude dude not mine Lol he loved Kiss and also Slipknot

[@suttonlea8366]

"What scares you the most?" "Sharks" He was so quick to that answer.

[@williamalldredge9569]

Really makes you wonder, doesn't it?

[@hangfire5005]

I suspect Larry couldn't give less of a shit about who this guy is.

[@Whalturk]

Maybe at the beginning, but as the interview goes on, I think Larry becomes more and more eager to know more about Corey. At 21:31 when Larry says "You're an interesting guy Corey", he sounds very sincere.

[@shawnc666]

I caught that as well.....it seemed genuine to me...

[@georgemarko8403]

Hangfire lol Right! And he doesn't give a flying fuck about Stone Sour and Slipknot either!

[@valoxiii422]

good cause who gives a fuck about larry king? id never watch his old wrinkled ass if corey wasnt on

[@Supercars976]

I had the same feel

[@corbindallas18]

Everything about Larry in this just says I'm clocking in reading the questions off the piece of paper and clocking out.

[@hhoyt3501]

Thought the same thing. He doesn't know who Corey Taylor is and doesn't really care.

[@ryanvox1]

My thought too. He cuts him off constantly almost like, "Yeah I don't care lets keep this moving. I wanna get home so I can catch Murder She Wrote."

[@dylandlp19]

I would argue that that's what makes him a great interviewer. He asks questions that maybe he's not totally into but he knows the audience is. He's just old but most definitely wise.

[@djoverkin]

Nah, that's always been his style, and sometimes he gets some really genuine answers. I feel that sometimes he even asks decoy, irrelevant questions, then quickly throws the real one mid answer.

[@corbindallas18]

@djoverkin The more that I have watched this show, I would have to agree with that.

[@MarcusJagdell]

Good and interesting interview BUT King interrupts Corey quite often for more questions when Corey is about to tell something deeper, more interesting to the previous question. I would have loved to listen to all his side stories but it's always ''next question'' here.

[@mcdcurtis]

I think its because its a timed interview so he has to get as many answers as he can in the half hour, so when he think he gets all he needs he moves on to the next one

[@GreyhandLion]

Don't feel that Larry king paid enough respect to Paul's memory, very quickly and harshly brushed the subject. Especially such a polarising and impactful moment for the band, perhaps he didn't understand the true impact of his death; but, as with any death of a friend, he should expect a lot of pain surrounding the subject.

[@pineapplecharm1700]

Felt the same way.

[@humanimal5527]

I agree but that's kind of the style Larry King uses in his interview. He keeps the questions coming.

[@frankdrebin7949]

He didn't want to force Corey into an emotional state.

[@catrichbillay1506]

Frank Drebin Understandable

[@graysoncasto5234]

Talking about Paul's passing at all is ALWAYS very hard for Corey to do. Even now, almost 11 years later.

[@SlimChanceDubs]

man no wonder Corey hurt his neck, must have gotten whiplash from the way Larry was asking questions

[@Ar1AnX1x]

Larry King: your mask is considerably scary Corey: *Laughs in sith*

[@barad-dur9236]

I've never heard anyone say anything bad about Corey when meeting or dealing with him. Just a genuinely nice person.

[@Bollthorn]

21:32 "You're an interesting guy, Corey." "I do okay." Loved that little exchange ^_^

[@DimaShinder]

He phrases his question in a way that his mostly older audience, that doesn't know much about metal can relate to and understand more clearly. Not due to a lack of preparation.

[@zidaneigor]

Larry should be a better role model about how to communicate better... people watch him and turn into robots because thats how you will be accepted and famous... set an better example especially about respecting your communication partner, maybe?

[@bomb.throwing.mayhem5261]

Hah. Both Sinatra and Slipknot make some of my favorite music to listen to of all time.

[@classucc96]

Sith'ari666 this i agree with

[@Borderlands2lova]

Sith'ari666 Not a fan of Sinatra, however I am very into the greats like Vivaldi and Mozart due to my musical influence, I've played music in orchestras and symphonies all my life. I do get down to some thrash hahahah, I like just about every genre of metal and rock but I love classical and country.

[@paradigmshiftz7]

Bomb.Throwing.Mayhem wow... Slipknot and Sinatra, an unlikely combo.

[@ThePingy27]

seeing corey explain what metal is, is basically the same as teaching a grandparent how to use a computer. impossible

You probably wouldn't think so if he weren't a rockstar.

[@dirtysouthbushcraftandmma9770]

@@christophermoffett3762 I didn't know larry was a rockstar

[@kristenellsworth9621]

Damn right he is.

[@johncrossing]

Asking the question ‘Is Heavy Metal even music?’ to the vocalist with the second widest vocal range in popular music is kind of ridiculous. (That’s not hyperbole by the way, he really does have a five and a half octave range).

[@mrslippyfist9155]

Jace Carsonne he has 6 almost 7 octaves now

[@swisscheeseplease97]

Late reply, but Larry King was an old man. He came from a generation that didn’t understand loud hard rock guitar music. Cut him some slack. He was born in the 1930s.

[@rodrrico]

Good old uninterested Larry King. Honestly, how did that vapid interviewer ever get off the ground and have his own show.

[@peterbedford449]

He's not vapid lol. He's just interviewing from the point of view of the audience that knows nothing about him. He's a good interviewer. He doesn't always get it right, but he's still a good interviewer.

[@JayJay270681]

Larry lost me at "is it music?" what kind of ignorant shit is that?

[@LegendaryManSlayer93]

JayJay270681 yeah wtf?

[@Kodiakian1]

JayJay270681 It's for all the old folks that watch his show and say that it's not music. He's having Corey, the musician, explain it to them.

i'd love to see a Maynard James Keenan interview

[@pauljh74]

If Maynard got pissed off by Larry, he'd keep going with the interview, but he'd fuck with him for sure

[@tonyhernandez2619]

joe rogan experience has a long 2 hr interview

[@pauljh74]

Tony Hernandez From what I remember of that, it was a good back and forth, Joe either knew Maynard well enough, or at least did his homework. Larry King sounds like he just reads off cue cards and doesn't really give a fuck about his guests. Which is something that would probably piss off Maynard.

[@ZeroHootsGiveth]

Joe is an actual fan and shares hobbies with Maynard. Plus he's enthusiastic and genuinely interested.

[@ZeroHootsGiveth]

pauljh74 definitely. He ain't got time for that BS.

[@Huardo]

Larry King needs to stop doing interviews..pull out of the business. He knows nothing about Metal or Slipknot or Corey, so insensitive as well and seems completely un-interested, and non-caring..terrible interview.

[@gabrielcastro4725]

I think its good that he doesnt know nothing about metal or slipknot. It gives a different point of view to people who is not a fan of the band. The public who watch Larry King is "square" people, not Slipknot fans.

[@chekerz123456789]

You obviously don't understand the point of an interview

[@QoMSoL]

an interview is not supposed to be taken by a fanboy, Larry does the best kind of interviews

[@brandonmiller5786]

Josh Huard Larry King actually is very well informed and does a lot of research on all of his guests. You just have to remember that the majority of his demographic is over 50.

[@465marko]

Yeah, the point of an interview is to ask really obvious questions to someone you haven't bothered to find anything out about before interview

[@eriicgiese]

Corey Taylor so much respect, Slipknot is a legend now.

[@465marko]

Good to see he's got his neck under control a bit more these days

[@lorenacifuentes7331]

Jesus Larry just shoots and shoots questions, let the man think for a second XD

[@mackenziecarder2289]

Larry does it to everyone

[@JosephMuin]

Time to think about a question gives the interviewed time to evade a question.

[@lynnteresa2328]

What an awesome interview. Corey is so intelligent and can answer questions so well. Love that Stone Sour are bringing out an album of covers next year. I've wanted them to do that for ages. Corey does great covers.

[@peterpohn2662]

I concurr ... but wtf about Larry King? Bored, always interrupting, has no clue about Corey's work ... If this interview would have been done by anyone else but Larry King ... that interviewer would have been fired right away, I imagine. Unbearable.

[@lynnteresa2328]

I totally agree with you Peter. Larry King didn't even know what band wore the masks. You're right, if it had been any other interviewer they would have had a lot to answer for. It's actually the first time I've seen a King interview. I'm in Australia and we don't get him over here. Not impressed with Larry King but greatly impressed with Corey. :)

[@CornelSeiciu]

Peter Pohn I think that was LK's role - to be a not-knowing interviewer, to be impartial, to bring out from Corey as much as possible about music, Slipknot and Stone Sour. This way a not-knowing watcher can learn more about Corey, the bands and music, because, let's face it, the general audience of LK is different from the general fan-base of Corey and his bands.

[@peterpohn2662]

Cornel Seiciu That may very well be true. :) (I do not know much about Larry King either, so maybe he is like that every time)

[@lynnteresa2328]

Cornel, that's actually an interesting take on LK. I will admit that the questions he asked would allow someone who hadn't heard of the bands, to get to know them and to get to know Corey.

[@angelamiller2577]

Interviews like this just make me love him even more. He seems so down-to-Earth, thoughtful, intelligent, well spoken, etc. He'd be a blast to hang out with.

[@Coreytaylorrock2]

@angela Y'all are the damn best. I'm honored to have the kind of support that you show me, thank you. How are you doing it is nice meeting you here btw.

[@scottparry4467]

Man I hate the way Larry King conducts this interview. Let Corey finish a sentence before asking another question! Is he always like this? I have never watched anything with Larry King before.

[@broke123]

He's so even keel now. Iowa Corey would have walked out on this interrogation by now haha

[@vuhellmo884]

Or scream at him

[@graysoncasto5234]

You mean insanely drunk Corey? He comes across as a completely different person now that he is sober.

[@enigma1247]

Rip to the legends larry and paul. Now larry can interview paul.
