The always-outspoken hard rock vocalist Corey Taylor begins America
51 with a reflection on what his itinerant youth and frequent
worldwide travels with his multiplatinum bands Slipknot and Stone
Sour have taught him about what it means to be an American in an
increasingly unstable world. He examines the way America sees
itself, specifically with regard to the propaganda surrounding
America's origins (like a heavy-metal Howard Zinn), while also
celebrating the quirks and behavior that make a true-blue American.
Taylor likewise takes a look at how the world views us, and his
findings should come as a surprise to no one. But behind Taylor's
ranting and raving is a thoughtful and intelligent consideration,
and even a sadness, of what America is compared to what it could
and should be. Expertly balancing humor, outrage, and disbelief,
Taylor examines the rotting core of America, evaluating everything
from politics and race relations to modern family dynamics,
millennials, and "man buns." No element of what constitutes America
is safe from his adept and scathing eye. Continuing the wave of
moral outrage begun in You're Making Me Hate You, Taylor flawlessly
skewers contemporary America in his own signature style.
