 
Corey Taylor is one of the most legendary front
men of my time fronting everyone’s favourite
metal band Slipknot and also everyone’s
favourite melodic rock band Stone Sour and not
to mention doing his own solo stuff during his
spare time, well as the festive season is upon
us Corey Taylor has decided to dig out a song
he wrote more than 5 years ago and slightly rework
it, record it and release it just in time for
the race to the UK Christmas number 1.
‘Xm@$’ is a humorous Christmas song
that runs for just over 2minutes and 30seconds,
the song may be short in length but the quality
and content of the song more than makes up for
it with each and every second of the song being
memorable and pretty damn hilarious, the chorus
is extremely catchy with Corey singing “If
I ain’t drunk then it ain’t Christmas,
you know where to stick those jingle bells”
other humorous moments during the song are when
Corey sings “Lets buy some peace and quiet
for a change before we spend it all on fucking
toys” and not to mention the epic outro
where Corey says “Hi Simon” as a nod
to Simon Cowell and his Xmas chart hogging X-factor
wannabees, the great thing with Corey Taylor is
that he has a different vocal style for every
occasion and his vocals here are so different
than anything you would have heard in the past
during his time with Slipknot and Stone Sour yet
just as enjoyable.
It doesn’t seem to matter what Corey Taylor
does he always seems to come across a winner when
it comes to creating music and his fans and the
majority of alternative music lovers are going
to fall in love with ‘Xm@$’ straight
away as in all honesty it is fucking legendary
and beats the same old Xmas songs we have all
been punished with for far to long.
I urge everybody to download 'Xm@$' on the 12th
December when it is released to help get a true
christmas song to number 1, you know it makes
sense.
5/5
