Can next year just hurry up already?
For the past couple of months we've been teased with the idea that a new Slipknot album will be released next year, and now Corey Taylor and Clown have kept the hype going.
The pair posted a selfie on the band's official Twitter account with the caption "2019" – and it really doesn't get much more clear than that that the follow-up to 5: The Gray Chapter is on the way. Exciting stuff.
Corey also recently told Billboard: "The guys are writing tons of music and I've written lyrics to almost all of it and we're going to start trying to put together demos here and there with the time off that I have and really try to get ahead of the curve as far as what happens next. I know that we're gonna try and put an album out next year – however, that is all speculation. The best way to make God laugh is to announce your plans out loud. So I'm just going with the flow. The plan right now is next year, but that is a huge plan because we still haven’t narrowed anything down, so we will definitely see what happens."
Happy days.
