SLIPKNOT and STONE SOUR singer Corey Taylor was interviewed by Rock 100.5 The KATT's Jay Ramone at this year's edition of the Rocklahoma festival, which was held May 26-28 at "Catch the Fever" Festival Grounds in Pryor, Oklahoma, just outside Tulsa.

I mean, it's got everything you could ever want in a rock and roll album, man. And it's probably one of the things I'm most proud of in my life." "Hydrograd" will be released on June 30 via Roadrunner Records. The disc was recorded at Sphere Studios in North Hollywood, California with producer Jay Ruston, who has previously worked with ANTHRAX and STEEL PANTHER. The band tracked the album live in the studio, cutting a total of 18 songs from which 15 will make the CD.
