Have we gotten the usual "it will be as heavy as iowa" statement yet

Lithium93_ · 10-06-2021 11:41pm

It'll probably make an appearance at some stage...

PsychoPete · 10-06-2021 11:57pm

Either way I'll always welcome new Slipknot music

Degag · 11-06-2021 5:18pm

Saw something on twitter saying they’ve rescheduled some european dates till next year with more dates to be added. Would be hopeful an Irish date will be added even though technically they’ll still probably be on the same tour that saw them play in Jan last year!

It's worth hoping for but I wouldn't make the same effort I made back then.

They could go to Belfast like the last time.

Giving this a long awaited bump, Clown hopes the band will be finished recording album #7 by the end of July, and have it out later this year. The new untitled one will also be their last one with & for Roadrunner Records. They've been with Roadrunner since 1999.

They are desperate to finish that terrible deal they signed back in 99

Did they get a raw deal?

500 grand for a 7 album deal. I mean no one would touch them then so they were delighted to sign it but as they went on to be so successful its terrible deal. I know artists don't make much from album sales now, but from what I read before its costing them money.

Question now is where do they go when their deal with Roadrunner is up? Will they go with Nuclear Blast? Or take a cue from Metallica and launch their own independent label?

Seems a sick twist that now that they're free, album sales are in such a decline.
The current situation must have bands rubbing their hands as they see the record companies profits fall.

I doubt they care about the revenue from albums, Roadrunner probably have a large piece of everything else they make though and that's where they are getting a rough ride.

Lithium93_ · 16-06-2021 2:48pm

So when they leave Roadrunner, will they be able to buy back the master copies of their albums, or is that entirely dependent on how their contract is laid out?

PsychoPete · 29-06-2021 11:41pm

22 years ago today!

Wow I feel old I can remember me and mate 13 years old moshing around the bedroom, breaking the plasterboard wall!

klose · 30-06-2021 9:42am

Never knew that Chris fehn was photoshopped onto the album cover, was it josh or Jim in the bondage mask?

Yep RIP, 46 is way to young to go

Such a pity he never reunited with the band.

Angron · 27-07-2021 10:29pm

Awful to hear.

Panthro · 27-07-2021 11:54pm

Ahh joey..

Fcuk it, Absolutely fcuk it. He was one hell of a drummer.

RIP Joey, your contribution to this world was immense.

rob316 · 28-07-2021 12:23am

Gutted to hear the news,always hoped he'd rejoin slipknot. A drumming phenomenon, he created that slipknot sound. That intro to Eyeless is amazing

New album out end of September called "The End, So Far"

New song to go with the announcement

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INi3qP1oWlY

Degag · 30-09-2022 9:34am

Having a listen through as we speak. Adderall is about as un-Slipknot a song you’ll find.

Hive Mind a banger i think on initial listen.

rob316 · 30-09-2022 11:08am

Initial listen not too memorable but I'll keep at it. They are out of their contract now though so maybe we'll see something new going forward.

Yeah, i wasn’t too gone on the pre-released songs from the album - was wondering maybe if they were just getting it out due to the contract situation.

klose · 07-06-2023 10:02pm

Craig jones gone now too, a lacklustre album release recently. All a bit meh

to be honest for all he did i could probably fill in, something not great going on in the camp though, reckon Clown and Taylor are nightmares to work for

Clown is back home looking after his wife too, so touring with 7 members at the moment?

Degag · 08-06-2023 9:25am

They’ve posted a picture of what appears to be a new mask on SM.

So:

Do they have someone new lined up already?

Or is it some kind of ruse with Jones

klose · 08-06-2023 10:08am

The new guy has already played their last couple shows according to Reddit atleast. Looks like they've finally updated their set list too, only took about 4 years

Degag · 05-11-2023 8:53pm

Jay Weinberg seems to have effectively been sacked.

Very odd and disappointing.

klose · 05-11-2023 10:04pm

That's beyond disappointing
