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. Slash tells Rolling Stone Australia: "Probably the closest would have to be Corey, because everybody was rallying for him. "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. But it didn't have certain elements I thought it needed. So we just didn't go down that path. And that was the closest so far." Find out what other named singer they considered here.
