Slipknot Gear Up For Live Return This Evening With Epic Teaser Video
Ahead of their proper live return tonight, Slipknot have unveiled a seriously cool teaser video.
This evening is a huge one for Slipknot, as the Iowa kings will be returning to the stage for the first time since 2016 (not including their two-song Jimmy Kimmel performance this past May).
As the band gear up for Hyvinkää's Rockfest tonight (June 7), they've dropped one hell of a teaser clip – featuring some typically obscure but nevertheless goosebump-inducing footage, before going into what sounds like 2001's crushing track People = Shit right at the end of the video. Presumably that'll be on their new setlist then, eh?
Elsewhere, there's a bunch of other cool shit: their mysterious new member bashing some drums, a very cool hair flick from frontman Corey Taylor, and, even more importantly, fire. LOTS AND LOTS OF FIRE.
Give it a watch below, and start getting very, very excited…
Slipknot’s new album We Are Not Your Kind will be released on August 9 through Roadrunner Records – pre-order your copy now.
The band will headline this year’s Download Festival in the UK on June 15 – get your tickets now. They then take the Knotfest Roadshow tour (with Behemoth, Volbeat and Gojira) across North America throughout the summer, before hitting Australia with the mighty Metallica.
