Stone Sour Album: “Come What(ever) May [CD/DVD]”

stone sour is perfect example of how hard rock should sound today, this band really reaches out and pulls you in. iam a big old school fan of king diamond, maiden opeth and so on. sometimes i get burned out on listening to same stuff over and over and it's all because metal and rock today suck. at least coreys stone sour and slipknot have kept modern metal alive and something good to listen to.

Again, the stone sour crew has again put together another collection of songs that will get fists pumping and people chanting. This album is at least as good as the first. There is no doubt of the slipknotish influence underneath, but the as it is unravelled and twisted back together throughout this album is far from what slipknot is. That is why corey taylor and his bandmates have this project, so they can explore other avenues of metal. Buy this version of the album folks. This is a special edition with 8 live tracks on DVD, along with 3 videos, and then 6 bonus tracks not included on the original album on the CD. Definate great value, and nice bonus to add to a collectors set. For first time buyers, get this version, second time buyers like me, well worth it.

Highlights-Your God, Made of Scars, Hell & Consequences, Through Glass.

Low's: None at this time.

Again, very strong sophmore effort from this Iowa based band.

The second album from Stone Sour, this version packs in a lot of extras for little extra price. The album itself is a standout, featuring a mix of brutal hard rock and laid back tunes. If you like your music heavy but also bands that are capable of slowing it down and still sounding great, you'll love this album. Standout tracks include hit singles Through Glass and Sillyworld, the heavy title track, and the melodic Zzyzx Rd.

This special edition also includes 5 bonus tracks not on the regular version of the album. The highlight of these is the excellent acoustic cover of Wicked Game. There is also a DVD included which has the videos from the album and a full concert performed in Moscow. The DVD does a great job of capturing the energy of their live show and includes most of the hits from their first two albums (the biggest exclusion in my opinion being Sillyworld) along with several other tracks which sound great live.

If you've become a fan of the band recently because of their latest album, Come What(ever) May is definitely worth going back to pick up and this is the version to buy. Even if you already own the regular version of this album, the DVD is good enough to justify buying again.

Once again stonesour have come up with the goods mixing hard hitting metal with more melodic songs including a cover of wicked game, my favourite tracks are come what(ever)may and fruitcake both strong guitar rhythm based tracks well worth a listen all in all 18 yes! 18 tracks well worth the money.

iv bought this cd the 1st day it came out and it was a killer cd that i didnt stop playing - usually any cd that i buy nowdays and specialy back in 06 its only in my cd player for a day or two max but not this cd it kept itself in my cd player for a longer time then the other releases of 06 by that time, by nov of that same year i found out that they were going to play in scotland unfortunatly i didnt attend that gig which i felt bad the only thing that kept me from stonesour gig was that i wanted to be in a motorhead gig at the same night dont get me wrong its aint that motorhead better or anything its just that like i told my brother lemmy might die anyday but in 07 i got to watch stonesour live at dubai and that was a killer gig they owned the night until iron maiden came headlining that same night will i agree with all the other reviews this is a cool buy worth every $ the russina gig its a copy of the gig that i saw .. long live rock n roll
