Slipknot’s Clown gives Look Outside Your Window update: “2026 is the year”

Clown has offered another update on the long-loooooong-awaited 2008 album Look Outside Your Window.

The All Hope Is Gone-era project – which was written and recorded by Clown, Sid Wilson, Jim Root and Corey Taylor – has been discussed for many years now, and Slipknot’s co-founder/percussionist promises that fans will finally get to hear it in 2026.

In a Discord Q&A yesterday, December 3 (as reported by ThePRP), Clown admitted that, “I know I told everyone it would be this year. I’m very sorry it hasn’t been. Things come to play that change things all the time with the art we create. I want you to know 2026 is the year. It’s just simply time and I’m just getting tired of waiting myself. Have faith. I promise.”

In June last year, Clown described Look Outside Your Window as a “timeless album that allows it to be presented at any time”. Corey, meanwhile, said back in 2020 that it was “a very unique art-piece on its own”.

“It’s sort of timeless in my opinion, so I try not to worry about it too much,” he explained. “I’ve waited this long for it to be right and it just never has. We were going to release it way early on this album cycle [for We Are Not Your Kind], but this one takes precedence. It’s not meant to be confused or watered down for marketing purposes. It’s really just another piece of the puzzle and the imagination that’s missing. People might really need it.”
