Stone Sour have shared an early demo version of “The Bitter End” off their 2010 album “Audio Secrecy.” This version of the track is called “Ending/Beginning” and it can be streamed below. Josh Rand commented:
“The song ‘Ending/Beginning‘ has an interesting story. The original idea was recorded during the 2000 Project X sessions, but I wasn’t really happy with how it turned out. I felt it was missing something so we shelved it. Then in 2008 I rediscovered the track as I was backing up my hard drives. After listening to it, I figured I would mess with it a bit to see if I could make it better. ‘The Bitter End‘ from the album ‘Audio Secrecy‘ is ultimately what it would become 10 years later. Here is the original 2000 demo.”
