Who are Slipknot’s fans?
We head down to Slipknot’s Here Comes The Pain tour in Manchester to meet the Maggots that had their lives changed forever by nine masked men from the cornfields…
Surprise! Slipknot have just released a brand-new song, Bone Church, which “started life in a jam room on the .5: The Gray Chapter tour”.
We’re only a few months on from The End, So Far, but Slipknot are already back with more new music!
The Iowa metal heroes have just shared new standalone single Bone Church, along with a video directed by the band’s own M. Shawn ‘Clown’ Crahan.
Clown explains of the origins of Bone Church: “On the road, we have a ‘jam room’ set up backstage at every show, where we play, practice, warm up and sometimes try out new ideas. Bone Church started life in a jam room on the .5: The Gray Chapter tour. We’ve been bringing it closer and closer to life ever since, and finally, here it is.
“This one is for the fans – a further vision deeper into Slipknot’s history, which is still being written. Enjoy.”
Watch the video for Bone Church below:
Slipknot are on the road extensively this year, kicking things off their world tour in Jakarta, Indonesia on March 19, and wrapping things up in Cadott, Wisconsin at Rock Fest on July 14.
