Why Velvet Revolver Passed On Corey Taylor
. And now he says Slipknot and Stone Sour singer Corey Taylor was closer than anyone else to landing the role when they held auditions.

"And I love Corey to death, but something about it was just a little bit too - what's the word for it? You know how Corey sings. It's a very macho kind of thing.
