Corey Taylor has revealed his tips for trashing hotel rooms – even though he says he’s only done it once.
The Slipknot and Stone Sour frontman offered the light-hearted advice during his appearance on BBC Radio 4 panel show The Museum Of Curiosity.

“I don’t recommend it, because they pile on charges that you didn’t know you’d accrued.

“But this was back in the days of tube TVs, which do a lot of damage – especially when you get a good strong cord and you start waving it about.
“I didn’t break the window, but I broke the wall.”
Later in the episode, Taylor discusses his theories on alien abduction explains why he’d like a deep-fried chicken wing preserved for posterity.
