Stone Sour have announced a 21-date European winter tour.

The dates will kick off in Copenhagen on November 15 and wrap up with a set at Milan’s Alcatraz on December 15. The run of shows includes a total of six UK performances.

Corey Taylor, Josh Rand, Roy Mayorga, Johny Chow and Christian Martucci will be supported by The Pretty Reckless on all dates with the exception of the Paris show on November 24.

To mark the announcement, Stone Sour have released a video for their new track Song #3 which shows the band going through several costume changes – one of which sees frontman Taylor sporting a blond mullet.

Watch it below.

The track is taken from Stone Sour’s upcoming album Hydrograd which is out on June 30 via Roadrunner Records.

Speaking previously about the album, Taylor said: “We have six singles on this album. I’m really excited – this album is great because it’s got elements of everything. It’s got the heavy energy of the 80s, there’s punk moments, there’s hard rock moments – all the great amalgam of music.

“There’s even jazz and hip-hop moments, it’s really, really cool. It’s probably the coolest album I’ve made since the first Slipknot album. I feel very confident making that statement because it’s so good.”
