SLIPKNOT frontman Corey Taylor was recently interviewed by Kerrang where he gave us another update on new SLIPKNOT album.
“I have fantastic news,” he says. “Some of you know, but I’ll just make it official right now: we are working on a new album. It’s only in the demo stages right now, however we have very serious, tentative plans – and I say that because the best way to make God laugh is to announce your plans out loud – to go into the studio at the beginning of next year and get this f**ker going.
“We have 16 songs written right now, and they are f**king dangerous. I loved .5 [The Gray Chapter], but this album, to me, makes .5 look like nobody’s business. This is Iowa levels of heavy. And I have to go out and tour this s**t at my age – I can feel those songs in my back! I am really, really excited about it, and I talk to the guys in SLIPKNOT all the time. I talk to Clown either every day, or every other day. I’ve been talking to Jim, V-man, Jay, Mick, Craig, Chris, Sid. We’re all really, really, really excited about this stuff, and it’s coming together really f**king well. So be prepared for 2019 – which, weirdly, is the 20th anniversary of our first album. Shit’s about to get f**king real again! So take that as you will.”
