80. Corey Taylor - "CMF2"

Unimaginatively titled second solo album from the Slipknot screamer. Unlike the first CMF (where he steered away from any material that sounded like either slipknot or, his other act, Stone Sour) there is a lot here that is reminiscent of the type of stuff he does in his day job. He feels much more confident in his solo pursuits and therefore much more able to provide a fittingly varied smorgasbord of delicacies. 

There is a real mix of ferment aggression and fragile vulnerability. Now that he has established himself as a solo performer, he seems much more comfortable in both showing us the real him and also in going into Slipknot territory. A highly eclectic record that shows again what an incredibly talented and versatile performer Corey is.
