CMFT is the debut solo album by American musician Corey Taylor. It was released on October 2, 2020, by Roadrunner Records.^[7]^[8]

Critical reception

Wall of Sound scored the album 7.5/10, stating: "[Corey Taylor is] doing something that he's always wanted to do. You're not going to hear these songs on a Stone Sour or Slipknot album, but you will hear them on CMFT which presents the iconic frontman's progression as a musician and just how talented he can be when he tries his hand at genres that have piqued his interest over the years."^[9]
