Corey Taylor Interview with Headstrong 

I love that Corey is such a genuine Human Being. Behind the mask, he's just as vulnerable and sensitive as I am and that's very empowering as a fan of his music.Let's break the stigma of talking about mental health together people! and never be afraid to ask for help!

Corey taylor: On stage: A wild violent beast singing On interview: A genuine man.

“The balance between self love and selfless love.” Hitting the nail on the head right there.

SlipKnot and Mr. Taylor saved me when I was down after my dads death . It let the rage out of me threw the music. I wish people would really appreciate SlipKnot and there talent .

Really needed to hear this. Relapsed on alcohol again and trying to pick myself back up after a horrid situation had happened in my life. Life works in mysterious ways.

R.I.P to all the veterans that lost their lives in war, you are greatly missed

Your music has helped me overcome the darkest times of my life since I was 12 years old currently 35. Have served in Iraq and am currently be being treated for mental health. If the VA could prescribe music for as a source of treatment so many would benefit. The shit never fully goes away during my bad days which there are many your music takes me somewhere where nothing else fuckin matters. Your fucking amazing!

I love this man and what he stands for so much. Corey is one of a kind and a gift to this world 🙌🏻🤍

Thank you Corey. Much appreciated. Its crazy to see how far you have come. Back in the early 90s/2000s slipknot were seen as a devil band and nobody wanted to talk to you guys probably cause u scared the crap out of them lol now you have been on tons of talk shows and all kinds of things. Lol went from hated to loved by the whole world. Thats a message in itself. Respect

Corey Taylor is one of the coolest dudes in metal period I love both his bands Slipknot & stone sour

Brutally honest. Love this guy.

I always love hearing Cory talk about his grandmother. It reminds me of my own. Thank God for Grama’s!!! ♥️♥️♥️ Lord knows how much I wish she was still here! 😔

Corey, I live with my grandmother too! I had to live with my grandparents bc my parents were pretty fucked up, and even after my mother got sober and my grandfather died, I stayed with my grandmother. I’m 15 now and I’m a huge Slipknot fan!

Thank you Corey you've helped me and countless others more than you could ever know!! Love every second of Corey's interviews

Corey is such an example of growth--it's like "that is still the Corey Taylor that I appreciate, but with an even greater perspective on life"--THANK YOU for endorsing therapy!

i relate so much to this story i've been through some crazy shit but slipknot has been there for me throughout singing and dancing along gives me that opportunity to get some of it out of my head like you can shout the pain out of your body like an exorcism if that makes any sense it and i swear i wouldn't be alive without slipknot!!!

Great interview. I sent this to my brother. He needs to hear this.

Beautifully said!!!!! Thank you for sharing!!

extremely inspiring, i absolutely adore this man. if it weren't for him and his music i don't know where i'd be right now. and musically a lot of bands have gotten me through the toughest parts of my life, but it can't be said about many musicians. only corey really is that musician for me. he always inspires me to keep on going and just be better overall. i honestly don't think i'd be the person i am today had it not been for corey.

Always nice to hear Corey's perspective on things

Lots of words of wisdom from Corey. He’s one of the good guys.

Well, at 40 with the Infantryman behind me. This makes me love the band and Corey even more. Darn near everything Corey said is truth. No matter the P.T.S.D someone has, whether it be from war or a bad family life, we can choose help. I needed this. I need help and all I ever do is say "I can do it myself". No I can't.

Have slipped a few times over the years but for the most part, have been clean and sober for 13 years. One day at a time. Absolutely agree, you have to love yourself and want to get better for you first. ❤

Some great advice. Thanks Corey. Wish you well.

Mr. Taylor, you are a possitive point for those of us struggling. Listening to you and your story, and your passion makes me want to be better. I'm in, I will be donating and will help in any other way I can. Keep fighting, keep it up, I'll be right behind you fighting.

wonderful interview, I hope Corey’s doing alright❤ (ps im wearing a Depeche Mode shirt too)

Amazing story Corey. You are an amazing person and an inspiration to all! Keep on Rocking!!

there are many ppl who don't even feel like a random name on a list they just feel like a number no one cares not me but i've known alot of ppl i've had to help through that so hopefully Corey can truly get through and help the ppl who really need it. The love in this man's heart just increases my obsession and I'm so happy he is at a place in his life that he can do something like this

Great interview!!

What an honest down to earth guy. Love that he’s a punk rocker too. Makes perfect sense

I relate a lot with this I spent lot of time living with my grandma to she was the reason I went back too school and studied music.

Love you for this and all dude! This is what a man sounds like. Wish we could talk sometime. From the Blackhawk, with Love, Carry on Cory

I needed to hear this man I struggle with Anger issues and self worth

My grandmother has always been my rock as well. Same situation, too me in at twelve and didn't control me, let me get it out but was there with unconditional love the rare times then I was actually willing to admit I needed it. I'm 38 now and I thank God everyday she's still here with me. She stuck with me through out of control self destructive behavior, heroin addiction, you name it! Not to much scares me anymore, and the downside of seeing hell and being able to return is its hard to find a lot that excites you also. The one and only thing that scares the hell out of me and what will happen to me is the day that woman leaves this earth! She's a Saint, the only one that would NOT give up on me when I was at my darkest, and I've been of heroin for over a decade now and the biggest reward for me wasn't even getting sober it was giving my guardian angel the ability to tell all the nay sayers to pack it in their ass! A lot of men may not like admiting this but the two strongest people I've met in my 38 years on this planet were both females! It's so unfortunate we are now losing that generation, I truly think we will truly lose ourselves when they are all gone!!!

Love this man with all my heart. Broken but beautiful.

Corey rocks as usual! Thanks, man!

My uncle was the same...ptsd from the Korean war and he died from alcoholism. I remember some points of his life it was a struggle!

I am at 13 yrs clean and theres not much more that i love then seeing others doing the same. Keep that shit up corey

A lot might be going wrong in the world but seeing the world slowly change for the better in terms of mental healthcare and recognize it’s as essential as physical is one of those things that keeps me going 🖤 for real tho the landscape has changed so much in the past decade itself, for people like Corey Taylor normalizing it is such an awesome thing! Man I wish that someday it’s rare to succumb to mental illness 🖤 Rip to all those brave souls that had to do deal with it on their own 🖤

This was REALLY 2 WEEKS AGO??? IN JUNE??? *NICE* 💚💚💚💚💚💚

This is why I love Corey so much

Thankyou Corey.

Watching this just made me cry!! For so many reasons, lived identical lives nearly.. I'm sure therw are some in Waterloo that wanted to throw me into a dumpster.. I just heard stories about my grandfather that make me sick toy stomach. And my grandmother also was the only love I ever felt, though she had no idea what to say apparently, until the end, then she told me some truths that no one had ever mentioned to me! Fuck dude I'm 52 now and just hera some of this stuff ... Like at 50 .. after my grand mother mentioned some things to me she died in a nursing home... Not sure who's cures I'm under Wagner, Byers, or Henry.. something's a rye .. Need a friend, and my daughter (s) and my life for once in my Life. You and I know some of the same people, that tooled me around as well!! BB

Hopefully this was posted at this day

Best interview Corey ever did

It so true slipknot music help me a lot

That's a great thing Corey is doing. Respect.

I want to meet him so bad 😩

I love the fact that he is wearing a shirt that has the cover of Black Celebration album from Depeche Mode

corey is my spirit animal

100% love this man

Black Celebration!!! I used to have that shirt!

I never thought I'd be sober from alcohol. Now I'm almost 2 yrs w/o it. Taking the first step sucks, but once you do it, things will get better. ✌️🔼

Corey seems So sorted🙌🙌

Corey ❤️ que emoción igual que mi playera de Black Celebration Depeche Mode ❤️‍🔥

I like that Corey Taylor is wearing a Depeche Mode shirt.

“Your life is worth saving” - Corey Taylor Remember that

Success is usually good

My father was in the Korean war and an alcoholic. Definitely had PTSD and had no idea. I'm sure he wasn't the same either. War is hell is an understatement....

Slipknot rules!

Damn, what a story. Too common. Taylor Foundation🤟🏼

Love Corey. Cannot wait for Vol 7. Just lost a very close family member. Need the knot atm. Big time! ❌

My guy ❤

i love corey!

I have a personal problem with alcoholism and I recognize that every day and I want to make a change. Like even right now I have an almost finished bottle of Jack Daniel's sitting next to me that I'll be finishing in a second. I have been a huge Slipknot fan for 20 years and I would like to seek help through one of these organizations that the Taylor Foundation is funding. Wish me luck. 🤘

Many time when the grandmothers and grandfathers help the grandchildren it is their way of repaying their children for the mistakes they made raising them Because many times those relationships are strained so they can’t bring themselves to do directly to their own child so they do it through the grandchildren This is just something I came up with. Who knows if it is true it just makes a to. Of sense

sick shirt corey

It helps me

Signs and symptoms important

Just lost a grandmother last night😓😢

Lovely guy

Success is usually normal

My Greatgrandpa is also Taylor, wonder if related

💜💜

Corey is a lyrical genius and you can hear it in the way he describes everything. Can definitely see his age in this though, just the ware and tare of being fucking SIC!! 🤘👺🤘

next time he should have an interview at neckstrong

Slipknot Saves Lives 100%

me too

New game: you drink everytime mr Taylor says "you know"

Real Life ✔️

Não entendi nada mas concordo com ele
