Stone Sour es una banda estadounidense de hard rock que surgió en Des Moines, Iowa, en 1992. Fundada por el vocalista Corey Taylor, que posteriormente se haría famoso como el líder de Slipknot, y el baterista Joel Ekman, la banda también incluyó al guitarrista Josh Rand y al bajista Shawn Economaki. Desde sus inicios, Stone Sour se ha caracterizado por su versatilidad musical y su capacidad para mezclar estilos como el hard rock, el metal alternativo y el post-grunge.
En sus primeros años, Stone Sour se labró una base de fans local con actuaciones en pequeños clubes y la distribución de demos a nivel local. Sin embargo, la banda se tomó un respiro cuando Corey Taylor se unió a Slipknot en 1997. Durante este tiempo, la idea de Stone Sour permaneció latente, esperando el momento adecuado para resurgir.
El resurgimiento de Stone Sour llegó en 2000 cuando Taylor y el guitarrista Jim Root, también miembro de Slipknot, decidieron revivir el proyecto. Con un nuevo impulso y renovado entusiasmo, la banda firmó con Roadrunner Records y lanzó su álbum homónimo, "Stone Sour", en 2002. Este trabajo fue un éxito inmediato, destacando por sencillos como "Bother" y "Get Inside". La habilidad de la banda para combinar agresividad con melodía capturó la atención del público y de la crítica.
En 2006, Stone Sour lanzó su segundo álbum, "Come What(ever) May". Este disco consolidó su éxito con sencillos potentes como

Right there a sharks in the water,
He's been killing people,
Legs have been bitten off and there blood all over the place
*Screams*
Psychos?
They look like psychos?
Is that what they look like?
Psycho's do not explode when sunlight hits them,
I don't give a fuck how crazy they are!
Remember when you ran away
And I got on my knees
And begged you not to leave because I'd go berserk?
Well,
you left me anyhow
And then the days got worse and worse
And now you see I've gone completely out of my mind
And
There coming to take me away, Ha-Ha
there coming to take me away, Ho-Ho
He-He
Ha-Ha
To the funny farm,
Where life is beautiful all the time
And I'll be happy to see those nice young men
in their clean white coats and there coming to take me away,
Ha-Ha
You thought it was a joke,
And so you laughed
YOU LAUGHED!
when i had said that losing you would make me flip my lid
RIGHT!
You know you laughed
I HEARD YOU LAUGH
You laughed
And laughed
And laughed,
And then you left and now you see I'm utterly mad
And
There coming to take me away, Ha-Ha
There coming to take me away, Ho-Ho
He-He
Ha-Ha
To the happy home,
With trees and flowers and chirping
birds and basket weavers who sit and smile
and twiddle their thumbs and toes
and there coming to take me away,
Ha-Ha
I cooked your food
And cleaned your house,
And this is how you pay me back
for all my kind and selfish loving deeds,
HUH!
Well, you just wait
They'll find you yet
And when they do
They'll put you in the ASPCA, you mangy mutt!
And
There coming to take me away, Ha-Ha
There coming to take me away, Ho-Ho
He-He
Ha-Ha
To the funny farm,
Where life is beautiful all the time
And i'll be happy to see those nice young men
in their clean white coats and there coming to take me away,
Ha-Ha
To the happy home,
With trees and flowers and chirping birds
and basket weavers who sit and smile
and twiddle their thumbs and toes
And there coming to take me away,
Ha-Ha
To the funny farm,
Where life is beautiful all the time
And I'll be happy to see those nice young men
in their clean white coats and there coming to take me away,
Ha-Ha
