‘Come What(Ever) May’ was produced by Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Velvet Revolver). The resulting album finds the band firing on all cylinders and primed to capture the attention and the hearts of the rock ‘n roll masses. It is a sensory experience, encompassing a wide spectrum of emotions. The first single, “Through Glass,” takes up real estate in your brain, thanks to its unforgettable melodic twists and chorus. Stone Sour know how to expertly craft melody and mix it with rock maelstrom in a way that is uniquely their own. ‘Come What(Ever) May’ is now available for pre-order at Amazon.
