    Recording for album #6 begins in January 2019.

    Did anyone check this, apparently it gives a hint on when they play in specific areas, for me it gives August 2019, given that I am in Northern Ireland it could be pointing an a tour in England rather than a Dublin date.

    They'll have left Europe by the time August rolls around they announced the summer tour months back.

    Maybe the album release date? that means they wouldn't be playing much new material at the June concerts then

    Posting a statement on their official website, Slipknot have say:
    “Slipknot’s focus is on making album #6, and our upcoming shows around the world, our best ever. Chris knows why he is no longer a part of Slipknot. We are disappointed that he chose to point fingers and manufacture claims, rather than doing what was necessary to continue to be a part of Slipknot. We would have preferred he not take the path that he has, but evolution in all things is a necessary part of this life.

    “Long Live The Knot.”

    So someone replied to Corey responded to someone saying it was a "bit dickish" about former vocalist Anders Colsefni coming back into the band, which led to this response from Corey.

    This has a big impact on the stage persona of the band, he was an iconic figure, obviously that would happen 3 months before I first see them, I bet clown will die the day before Download.

    Will Chris's departure really have that much impact? Clown can just as easily do his job...

    Those two percussionists have robbed a living for about 20 years in fairness.

    Continuation of a return to form for the Knot.

    Does anyone else want to hear a trademark whack of a barrel keg at certain points during the prechorus/chorus or thereabouts?!

    There's far too much talk about masks in the Slipknot community, it is true that costumes are a distraction to the music

    I've never heard anyone who's a fan of the band ever mention this before.

    Their 2 songs from Jimmy Kimmel Live this morning.

    Posting a statement on their official website, Slipknot have say:

    'rather than doing what was necessary to stay', this will stink for some time, especially after the JJ incident.
    I agree that it will undermine their image if members start arguing over money and become expendable.

    Unsainted is a belter though it's a shame all out life won't be on the new album.

    Slipknot
    It is with a broken heart, and from a place of the deepest pain, that I have to inform all of you that my youngest daughter, Gabrielle, passed away yesterday - Saturday May 18th, 2019. She was 22 years old. Funeral arrangements will be forthcoming. My family and I ask that our privacy be respected moving forward. Thank you.

    Much love,
    clown

    I do prefer Unsainted to All out life. It has a pretty catchy chorus and feels a bit more Slipknot like. Coreys new mask looks like he's having an allergic reaction to something

    That's because most of the fans obsess over the masks, you just had to look at the reddit page last week, all talk about masks but little about what the upcoming song would be like. The original reason why they wore masks was to make their performances about the music and not the performers but now they are most famous for the masks so it had the opposite impact.

    Well if your using Slipknot's sub reddit as your metric for "most of the fans", you're reading too much into it, the masks are obviously going to be part of the conversation cause the band have been on hiatus since the end of the touring for .5 The Gray Chapter. Plus with each new album usually comes news masks, or slight variations/modifications.


    As for not talking about what the song would sound like, I'd wager that those who follow the band know exactly what they're getting whenever a new Slipknot song or album is released.

    I would be guessing early next year, possibly very similar date to 2015.
