(Gibson) Stone Sour and Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor knows a thing or two about writing. After all, he recently penned an autobiography, Seven Deadly Sins: Settling the Argument Between Born Bad and Damaged Good, that landed on the New York Times bestseller list.

Taylor recently chatted with Artist Direct about his favorite reads, and he said Stephen King's The Stand is at the top of the list. C'mon, are you surprised?

"I'd have to say the unabridged version of The Stand with the extra 150,000 words," he said when asked to rattle off his No. 1 pick. "I pretty much read that once a year, and I have since I was � 20-years-old. It's one of my all-time favorite books, and it's such an adventure that it's almost like reading the script to a fantastic movie that you know will never get made. The Stand is definitely a favorite. How stoked do you think I was when Slipknot got mentioned in Stephen King's Cell?" What else is on his reading list?
