Dream Theater – “Repentance” (2007)
Taylor: I did spoken word pieces on the first Stone Sour album, and recorded two more for the following two albums that didn’t make the cut. I like doing spoken word pieces, and that’s one of the reasons why [Dream Theater co-founder] Mike Portnoy hit me up about it, because at the time he was still in the band. He was like, “Would you be down with doing a stream-of-consciousness thing?” I don’t even remember what the hell I was talking about – that’s how long ago it was. But they were stoked on it and sent me back the track.
