SLIPKNOT's COREY TAYLOR Working On Book About Seven Deadly Sins

August 23, 2010

SLIPKNOT/STONE SOUR frontman Corey Taylor has told Bryan Reesman of the Attention Deficit Delirium that he is working on a book about the Seven Deadly Sins. "I just finished writing it, and it's being edited right now," Taylor said. "We're hoping to get it out by the spring of next year. It's about the Seven Deadly Sins and my take on them and how I don't think they're sins at all. They're human characteristics. They're just human flaws and things that we all experience, yet because we all deal with them we're all doomed? Screw you. To me, it's just part of being human, and it's me making the case for that and saying that you can go through all of these things and at the end of the day you can still be a good person. I'm telling stories from my past and balancing humor with serious, dark stuff. I'm really excited about it."

He added, "I'm very proud of the fact I didn't have a ghostwriter. I wrote it myself, so if it sucks you know who to blame."

According to Taylor, the book will published by Da Capo Press.
