Themes and composition
With Corey Taylor's comments on the CMFT album, in regards to it being across many various genre and in styles not commonly found in his band's Slipknot and Stone Sour, publications noted the difference in sound between "Black Eyes Blue" and "CMFT Must Be Stopped".[6][7] While publications commonly referred to the latter as rap rock,[7][8][9] "Black Eyes Blue" was described as power pop by Rolling Stone magazine.[7] Consequence of Sound referred to "Black Eyes Blue" as "more of a straight-ahead rocker" with "melodic punk-like verses reminiscent of [the band] Rise Against".[8]
