Corey Taylor has released “Post Traumatic Blues,” the second preview from his new solo album, CMF2.
Taylor said in a statement on the track, “Post Traumatic Blues’ is my attempt to describe for people what it’s like to deal with PTSD. Sometimes it’s so hard for people to understand the ups and downs, the severity of the cold and numbness, that I wanted to try and build a bridge lyrically between the ones living with the disease and the ones who are trying to help them.”
“Post Traumatic Blues” is can be heard below and is available for streaming and download here.
CMF2 comes out on September 15 and is available for pre-order and pre-save here.
