Corey Taylor, main vocalist of this group 'not metal'American, has revealed to a prestigious music magazine that he was about to take his life when it hit rock bottom.
Shortly after fame smiled on Slipknot, Taylor became addicted to alcohol and fell into a state of depression so deep, that he almost jumped off the balcony in a Los Angeles (2004) ...
"I was about to jump off the balcony on the eighth floor in a hotel ... it's one of those situations where you suddenly realize what is happening and you know that something is not working well.
I became someone I did not like and did not deserve the slightest respect. Starting that day, I decided to stop drinking ... no more lies ... no more nonsense"He explained.
“TI've had to deal with a lot of internal demons. There was a lot of introspection. I remember a concert where I was sitting in the locker room, my mask in hand, and suddenly my mind went blank.
In those days I was very unhappy ... not for the band, but for everything else"He added.
