Corey Taylor has always been awesome in my books. It’s nice to see how amazing people can be in times of tragedy and how supportive people can be of one another. I hold both Corey and Avenged in such high regards. Love them both. :)

Comment by Jes

Haha!! That it is. I’m loving it though! Corey is such a sweetheart. I’ve been a fan for a while but my respect for him keeps growing!

Comment by ashleigh

is it more an autobiography or an anti-religion thing?

Comment by Mark

I went and read a little bit of it on borders website. Very interesting lol

It’s more about the seven deadly sins, but he applies a lot of it to his life. I dunno, its hard to describe. Lol

Comment by Jes

That is so awesome! I’ve always had respect for Corey but now I have more respect for him! So glad we got to watch that! :) Thx

Comment by Amy

His words truly touched me. I was already a fan of his (in Slipknot and Stone Sour), but I love and respect him even more now! And of course, this just makes me love Avenged more (and I already love them immensely)! I had the biggest smile on my face when he was talking about Syn asking him all those questions! For some reason, I thought that was so freaking cute!

I love Corey Taylor! I went to the book signing and he was really cool to all of his fans. I got a little teary eyed when he talked about Jimmy and Paul. He also did a performance and he was awesome.

Comment by Chloe

Corey has always been one of the coolest guys in the music business. I’m damn proud to be from the same state as him.

Comment by yes

I hear ya. I’m on the other side of the Miss, but I grew up an hour away from his hometown. Makes ya feel like a boss haha

Comment by ashleigh

Always impressed by how down to earth Corey is. I saw him out among the crowd following their set during last year’s Uproar, and he was just being cool and BS-ing with fans. Tha dude’s a class act.

Comment by Brad

I just think it’s so cool when bands talk about other bands with such respect and don’t try to put them down in any way. It just makes me love their music so much more.

That has too be one of the most awsome things i have ever heard/watched to hear the love & respect that these bands have for each other is really so very rare these days.
Most have their heads planted fairley up their asses and wouldnt give you the time of day.
But the slipknot & avenged guys are truely beautiful people,they all must also have wonderful partners/wifes.
It’s really nice too know…..i’d love one day to shake their hands,give them all a hug,have a drink with em and just say thanks for your awsome music but thanks for just being yourselves. I get to see A7X for the first time in melbourne in little under 2 weeks,cant wait
