Watch: COREY TAYLOR Joins FALLING IN REVERSE On Stage In Las Vegas
March 4, 2024FALLING IN REVERSE was joined by SLIPKNOT's Corey Taylor during the former band's March 3 concert at the Bakkt Theater at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas, Nevada for a performance of their collaborative track "Drugs". Fan-filmed vide of his appearance can be seen below.
The studio version of FALLING IN REVERSE's "Drugs", featuring Taylor, was originally released in April 2019.
A year ago, Taylor spoke about some of the newer bands that he finds inspiring, where "you can feel them leaning into the passion." He told NME: "TURNSTILE are fucking amazing. SLEEP TOKEN are really starting to do something for me, and BAD OMENS are great. There's a whole new generation of bands that are starting to come up that are carrying the flag for heavy music."
This past January, Corey shared an Instagram video in response to fan concern over his well-being following the cancelation of his previously scheduled North American solo tour.
"I, over the last year, have had a complete and utter breakdown of boundaries, mental health, ego, entitlement, the whole nine yards, culminating in a very, very real, very near relapse that… I kind of don't recognize myself," he said. "So, I wanted to address this and just tell people that I needed time to reset, I needed time to start working on my heart and my mind and get straight… I'm working on self-care right now, getting the help that I need and surrounding myself with my family… It's a long road and I don't know what’s at the end of it, but I look forward to it. I have gratitude for it, and I hope you can show me some patience."
On January 5, Taylor announced that he was pulling out of his North American tour, citing struggles with mental and physical health.
"For the past several months my mental and physical health have been breaking down, and I reached a place that was unhealthy for my family and I," he wrote in a statement. "I know this decision will come as a shock to some and may be regarded as unpopular by others – but after taking a hard look at where I am and where I was going, I need to pull myself back and be home with my family for the time being. Those of you who bought tickets and VIP packages for this upcoming run will get a full refund."
Corey has a four-show run in Asia scheduled for late March and early April as well as a European summer tour from June 3 to July 2.
Corey recently completed European and North American tours in support of his sophomore solo album, "CMF2", which was released in September. Taylor's first album for BMG and the first on his own label imprint, Decibel Cooper Recordings, was produced by Jay Ruston (ANTHRAX, STEEL PANTHER, AMON AMARTH),who also helmed STONE SOUR's 2017 LP "Hydrograd" as well as 2020's "CMFT".
Taylor began tracking the follow-up to 2020's "CMFT" LP in January 2023 at The Hideout Recording Studio in Las Vegas, Nevada with Ruston. Joining Corey in the studio was the rest of his solo band — bassist Eliot Lorango, drummer Dustin Robert, along with guitarists Christian Martucci and Zach Throne.
"CMFT" featured the No. 1 Billboard mainstream rock single "Black Eyes Blue" and "CMFT Must Be Stopped" (feat. Tech N9ne and Kid Bookie). The LP hit No. 6 on Billboard's U.S. Top Rock Albums chart.
