Stone Sour are now streaming a clip of a new song, "Absolute Zero," on their official website in exchange for a Facebook or Twitter share. List here.
The track is taken from House of Gold and Bones, Part 1, which marks the first disc of a planned double album. Part 1 is tentatively scheduled for an October release, while the second disc is slated for a 2013 release.
According to frontman Corey Taylor, the two halves will each contain 12 tracks, with a larger overall narrative connecting them. "Each disc will include one half of the story," the singer said via Twitter. "For lyrics, you’ll have to [visit] our site.”
