Corey Taylor Teams With Dave Grohl

Foo Fighters mainman Dave Grohl has made a documentary, Sound City: Real to Reel, about the legendary Sound City recording studio in Los Angeles. The movie features interviews with many musicians who made records there, including Corey Taylor (Slipknot's Iowa was recorded at Sound City). The movie's soundtrack features collaborations between these artists and Grohl, and "Can To Can't," a song featuring Corey, Grohl, Cheap Trick guitarist Rick Neilsen and Kyuss/The Obsessed bassist Scott Reeder.

He didn't even hear it until I went down there to record it. And I laid it down, and he was just like, 'Wow.' Because we did it old school—two-inch tape, take after take after take. And with that board, man. It was really, really cool."
