Slipknot's Corey Taylor has been recording songs with Velvet Revolver, it has been revealed.
Velvet Revolver's bassist Duff McKagan confirmed the news but said that Taylor is not the band's official new frontman yet.
''We recorded a bunch of songs with Corey. I think he's ****ing great – he's the best voice of a new generation and I'd be proud to do anything with him," McKagan told Music Radar.
He added: The truth is, I can't see Velvet Revolver happening until fall. Slash is touring, I'm just starting to tour – we'll just have to see. I don't have an answer."
Velvet Revolver have been without a singer since Scott Weiland quit the group in 2008.
